The MTF1 Polyclonal Antibody (PAC016715) is a valuable tool for researchers studying metal-regulatory transcription factor 1 (MTF1), a key regulator of metal homeostasis and response to oxidative stress in cells. Raised in rabbits, this antibody demonstrates high reactivity with human samples and has been validated for use in Western blot applications.MTF1 plays a crucial role in responding to changes in intracellular levels of essential metals such as zinc and copper, as well as protecting cells from damage caused by reactive oxygen species. Its involvement in regulating genes related to metal transport, detoxification, and antioxidant defense makes it an intriguing target for investigations into various diseases, including cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, and metal toxicity.
By enabling detection and analysis of MTF1 protein in different cell types, this antibody serves as a valuable tool for researchers in the fields of molecular biology, metal biology, and toxicology. Understanding the function and regulation of MTF1 could provide insights into potential therapeutic strategies for conditions linked to metal dysregulation and oxidative stress.

Background:
This gene encodes a mitochondrial protein that is characterized by a poly-proline rich region. A chicken homolog of this protein promotes mitochondrial fission and the mouse homolog protects cells from oxidative stress. A related pseudogene of this gene is found on chromosome X.
Synonyms:
mitochondrial fission regulator 1
UniProt Protein Function:
May play a role in mitochondrial aerobic respiration. May also regulate mitochondrial organization and fission ().
