Transcriptional activator that regulates the tissue specific expression of multiple genes, especially in pancreatic islet cells and in liver (By similarity). Binds to the inverted palindrome 5'-GTTAATNATTAAC-3' (PubMed:10966642, PubMed:12453420). Activates the transcription of CYP1A2, CYP2E1 and CYP3A11 (By similarity). (Microbial infection) Plays a crucial role for hepatitis B virus gene transcription and DNA replication. Mechanistically, synergistically cooperates with NR5A2 to up-regulate the activity of one of the critical cis-elements in the hepatitis B virus genome enhancer II (ENII).

The HNF1 alpha also known as hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 alpha is a transcription factor that has an important role in regulating gene expression. It has a mass of approximately 67 kDa. Predominantly HNF1 alpha appears in the liver kidney intestines and pancreas. It binds to enhancer elements of target genes affecting the transcriptional activity. The protein is also vital for cellular differentiation and maintenance in tissues where it is expressed.
The HNF1 alpha functions as part of the dimeric HNF1 protein complex often partnering with HNF1 beta. It governs a wide array of genes including those involved in carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. By influencing the gene expression HNF1 alpha assists in maintaining normal metabolic processes. Its activity is critical for proper liver function and insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells.
HNF1 alpha actively integrates into key metabolic pathways such as the gluconeogenesis and the cholesterol biosynthesis pathways. In these pathways it works alongside other proteins like HNF4 alpha and PGC-1 alpha contributing significantly to glucose and lipid homeostasis. The transcription factor impacts the metabolic pathway reinforcing its integral role in maintaining energy balance and metabolic health.
HNF1 alpha is importantly linked to maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) and certain forms of liver disease. Mutations or dysregulation in HNF1 alpha can cause MODY3 a subtype of diabetes characterized by an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance. Additionally the abnormal activity of HNF1 alpha may contribute to liver dysfunction often in conjunction with HNF4 alpha disruptions. These associations highlight the importance of HNF1 alpha in both metabolic pathway integrity and disease pathology.

7.5% SDS PAGE
Blocking: 5% non-fat milk in TBST, room temperature, 60 minutes.
Lysates should be made freshly and used in WB immediately to minimize protein degradation. The molecular weight observed is consistent with what has been described in the literature (PMID:31145732).
Negative control: HeLa (PMID: 12488960). Also, 293T and A431.
All lanes: Western blot - Anti-HNF1 alpha antibody (ab96777) at 1/5000 dilution

ab96777, at a 1/100 dilution, staining HNF1 alpha in paraffin embedded A549 Xenograft by Immunohistochemistry.
Western blot: Anti-HNF1A antibody (ab96777) staining at 1/1000 dilution, shown in green; Mouse anti-Alpha Tubulin [DM1A] (Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Loading Control ab7291) loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in magenta. In Western blot, ab96777 was shown to bind specifically to HNF1A. A band was observed at 75-80 kDa in wild-type A549 cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in HNF1A knockout cell line. To generate this image, wild-type and HNF1A knockout A549 cell lysates were analysed. First, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 3 % milk in TBS-0.1 % Tween® 20 (TBS-T) before incubation with primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C. Blots were washed four times in TBS-T, incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times then imaged. Secondary antibodies used were Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L 800CW and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L 680RD at 1/20000 dilution.
