GABPA Monoclonal antibody

GA-binding protein alpha chain (GABP alpha subunit, GABPA, nuclear respiratory factor 2 subunit alpha, transcription factor E4TF1-60) is one of three GA-binding protein transcription factor subunits which functions as a DNA-binding subunit.GABPA is a member of Ets family, binds to the Yap promoter and activates YAP transcription(23684612). Since this subunit shares identity with a subunit encoding the nuclear respiratory factor 2 gene, it is likely involved in activation of cytochrome oxidase expression and nuclear control of mitochondrial function. This subunit also shares identity with a subunit constituting the transcription factor E4TF1, responsible for expression of the adenovirus E4 gene. Because of its chromosomal localization and ability to form heterodimers with other polypeptides, this gene may play a role in the Down Syndrome phenotype.
