anti-SATB2 (human), Rabbit Monoclonal (RM365)

Product description: Recombinant Antibody. This antibody reacts human DNA-binding protein SATB2. Applications: WB, IHC. Source: Rabbit. Liquid. 50% Glycerol/PBS with 1% BSA and 0.09% sodium azide. DNA-binding protein SATB2 binds to DNA at the nuclear matrix- or scaffold associated regions. It is thought to recognize the sugar-phosphate structure of double-stranded DNA. SATB2 is a transcription factor controlling nuclear gene expression by binding to matrix attachment regions (MARs) of DNA and inducing a local chromatin-loop remodeling. It also acts as a docking site for several chromatin remodeling enzymes by recruiting corepressors (HDACs) or coactivators (HATs) directly to promoters and enhancers. SATB2 is required for the initiation of the upper-layer neurons (UL1) specific genetic program and for the inactivation of deep-layer neurons (DL) and UL2 specific genes, probably by modulating BCL11B expression. It is a repressor of Ctip2 and a regulatory determinant of corticocortical connections in the developing cerebral cortex. Mutations in the gene are associate with cleft palate isolated (CPI). SATB2 expression is highly specific for cancer in the lower GI-tract and has been implicated as a cancer biomarker for colorectal cancer.
