Applications

Show applications key

Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab28700 in the following tested applications.

The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Target

Function

Strongly activates transcription when bound to HCFC1. Suppresses the expression of HSV proteins in cells infected with the virus in a HCFC1-dependent manner. Also suppresses the HCFC1-dependent transcriptional activation by CREB3 and reduces the amount of CREB3 in the cell. Able to down-regulate expression of some cellular genes in CREBZF-expressing cells.

Tissue specificity

In adults, expressed most abundantly in heart, liver and skeletal muscle, moderately abundant in kidney and pancreas, and barely detectable in lung. In fetal tissues, expressed most abundantly in kidney and very low amounts in heart, lung and liver.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the bZIP family. ATF subfamily.
Contains 1 bZIP domain.

Cellular localization

Nucleus. Colocalizes at punctate nuclear structures with CREB3 and HCFC1.

Secondary
Goat polyclonal Secondary Antibody to Rabbit IgG - H&L (HRP), pre-adsorbed (ab97080) at 1/5000 dilution

Performed under reducing conditions.

Predicted band size : 30 kDa
Observed band size : 50 kDa (why is the actual band size different from the predicted?)


Exposure time : 2 minutes

In the literature Zhangfei is also referred to as SMILE (SHP-interacting leucine zipper protein). The SMILE gene generates two isoforms, SMILE-L (long isoform of SMILE, 50–60 kDa) and SMILE-S (short isoform of SMILE, 40 kDa), and ab28700 predominantly recognizes the SMILE-L form.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Zhangfei antibody (ab28700)

ICC/IF image of ab28700 stained human HEK293 cells. The cells were PFA fixed (10 min) and incubated with the antibody (ab28700, 5µg/ml) for 1h at room temperature. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Image-iTTM FX Signal Enhancer was used to quench autofluorescence.  5% BSA (in TBS-T) was used for all other blocking steps. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue). Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red).
