Flow Cytometry (Intracellular) - Alexa Fluor® 488 Anti-MiTF antibody [D5] (AB201675)

Overlay histogram showing MALME-3M cells stained with ab201675 (red line). The cells were fixed with 4% formaldehyde (10 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100 for 15 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab201675, 1/500 dilution) for 30 min at 22°C.

Isotype control antibody (black line) was Mouse IgG1 (monoclonal) Alexa Fluor® 488 used at the same concentration and conditions as the primary antibody. Unlabelled sample (blue line) was also used as a control.

Acquisition of >5,000 events were collected using a 50mW Blue laser (488nm) and 530/30 bandpass filter.

This antibody gave a positive signal in MALME-3M cells fixed with 80% methanol (5 min)/permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100 for 15 min used under the same conditions.

Target data

Transcription factor that acts as a master regulator of melanocyte survival and differentiation as well as melanosome biogenesis (PubMed : 10587587, PubMed : 22647378, PubMed : 27889061, PubMed : 9647758). Binds to M-boxes (5'-TCATGTG-3') and symmetrical DNA sequences (E-boxes) (5'-CACGTG-3') found in the promoter of pigmentation genes, such as tyrosinase (TYR) (PubMed : 10587587, PubMed : 22647378, PubMed : 27889061, PubMed : 9647758). Involved in the cellular response to amino acid availability by acting downstream of MTOR : in the presence of nutrients, MITF phosphorylation by MTOR promotes its inactivation (PubMed : 36608670). Upon starvation or lysosomal stress, inhibition of MTOR induces MITF dephosphorylation, resulting in transcription factor activity (PubMed : 36608670). Plays an important role in melanocyte development by regulating the expression of tyrosinase (TYR) and tyrosinase-related protein 1 (TYRP1) (PubMed : 10587587, PubMed : 22647378, PubMed : 27889061, PubMed : 9647758). Plays a critical role in the differentiation of various cell types, such as neural crest-derived melanocytes, mast cells, osteoclasts and optic cup-derived retinal pigment epithelium (PubMed : 10587587, PubMed : 22647378, PubMed : 27889061, PubMed : 9647758).
