KLF4 also known as Kruppel-like factor 4 acts as a transcription factor involved in the regulation of gene expression. It has a molecular weight of approximately 55-60 kDa. Researchers often find KLF4 expressed in epithelial tissues such as the skin and gastrointestinal tract. It regulates cellular processes like differentiation proliferation and apoptosis playing a role in maintaining homeostasis and cell identity.
KLF4 impacts cell differentiation and proliferation through its role as a transcription factor. It functions within several cellular complexes and interacts with other transcription factors to modulate gene expression. KLF4 regulates stem cell maintenance by influencing gene networks involved in self-renewal and differentiation contributing particularly to pluripotency in embryonic stem cells.
The transcriptional activity of KLF4 integrates into key signaling pathways like the Wnt/β-catenin and Notch pathways. Within the Wnt/β-catenin pathway KLF4 may cooperate with β-catenin and TCF/LEF transcription factors to modulate gene targets. Similarly in the Notch signaling pathway KLF4 interacts with pathway components to influence cell fate decisions. These interactions highlight KLF4's central role in orchestrating complex signaling networks.
Mutations or dysregulated expression of KLF4 associates with various conditions including colorectal cancer and skin disorders like atopic dermatitis. In colorectal cancer KLF4 often interacts with other oncogenes and tumor suppressor proteins such as p53 to influence tumorigenesis. In skin disorders altered KLF4 expression can impact skin barrier function and inflammatory responses connecting it with proteins involved in immune response regulation.

This data was developed using Anti-KLF4 antibody [EPR20753-25] ab214666, the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation.
Several embryos at the mid-blastocyst stage (~E3.75) were tested. The embryos were fixed for 10 mins at room temperature in 4% PFA. Fixed embryos were washed for 5 mins in PBS + 0.1% Triton X-100 (PBX) at room temperature. The embryos were then permeabilized in PBS + 0.5% Triton X-100 + 100mM Glycine for 5 mins at room temperature and washed again in PBX for 5 mins at room temperature. Blocking was carried out for 1 hour at room temperature in PBS + 2% horse serum and then the embryos were incubated overnight in Anti-KLF4 antibody [EPR20753-25] ab214666 (1/1000) diluted in blocking solution. The next day embryos were washed three times for 5 mins each in PBX, before blocking again for 1 hour at room temperature. Then incubated in Donkey anti rabbit Alexa Fluor® 488 secondary antibodies (1/500) diluted in blocking solution for 1 hour at 4°C. This was followed by 2 washes of 5 mins each in PBX. The embryos were then incubated in PBS + 5μg/ml DAPI for 10 min, or until mounting for imaging. Images were acquired on a laser-scanning confocal microscope system. Displayed image shows maximum intensity projection of 5 optical sections acquired at 1μm increments. Scale bar: 20 μm
KLF4 was immunoprecipitated from 0.35 mg F9 (Mouse embryonal carcinoma epithelial cell) whole cell lysate using Anti-KLF4 antibody [EPR20753-25] ab214666 at 1/30 dilution. Western blot was performed on the immunoprecipitate using Anti-KLF4 antibody [EPR20753-25] ab214666 at 1/1000 dilution. VeriBlot for IP secondary antibody (HRP) (VeriBlot for IP Detection Reagent (HRP) ab131366) was used as the secondary at 1/5000 dilution.
