ICC/IF image of ab80042 stained MCF-7 cells. The cells were 4% PFA fixed (10 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal Goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab80042, 1µg/ml) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488 Goat anti-Rabbit IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red) at a 1/200 dilution for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM. This antibody also gave a positive result in 100% Methanol fixed (5 min) HeLa cells at 1µg/ml.

Supplementary information

The PHD finger protein 1 also known as PHF1 is a protein involved in chromatin remodeling. It weighs approximately 60 kDa. You may find PHF1 expressed in various human tissues including the brain heart and skeletal muscle which suggests its versatile roles across different cell types. This protein contains a plant homeodomain (PHD) finger motif which functions mechanically in binding to specific histone modifications notably those associated with methylated lysine residues.
Biological function summary

PHD finger protein 1 plays a role in regulating gene expression by modifying the chromatin structure. It acts as part of the PRC2 complex which is pivotal for depositing methyl marks on histone H3 at lysine 27 (H3K27me3). This modification results in transcriptional repression of target genes. Additionally PHF1 interacts with other chromatin regulators thereby contributing to the finely-tuned control of genetic programs essential for cellular differentiation and development.

Pathways

PHD finger protein 1 is involved in the Polycomb group (PcG) pathways along with the Wnt signaling pathway. PHF1 cooperates with other proteins like EZH2 which is an important enzymatic component of the PRC2 complex to mediate its repressive function on chromatin. This interaction and pathway association highlight its involvement in maintaining stem cell pluripotency and lineage specification during development.

PHD finger protein 1 associates with cancers notably endometrial cancer and sarcomas. Alterations in PHF1 expression or function influence the disease progression partly through its interaction with EZH2 leading to abnormal silencing of tumor suppressor genes. Investigations of PHF1 reveal its potential as a biomarker and therapeutic target connecting its modulation to disease outcomes and treatment strategies.

Target data

Polycomb group (PcG) that specifically binds histone H3 trimethylated at 'Lys-36' (H3K36me3) and recruits the PRC2 complex. Involved in DNA damage response and is recruited at double-strand breaks (DSBs). Acts by binding to H3K36me3, a mark for transcriptional activation, and recruiting the PRC2 complex : it is however unclear whether recruitment of the PRC2 complex to H3K36me3 leads to enhance or inhibit H3K27me3 methylation mediated by the PRC2 complex. According to some reports, PRC2 recruitment by PHF1 promotes H3K27me3 and subsequent gene silencing by inducing spreading of PRC2 and H3K27me3 into H3K36me3 loci (PubMed : 18285464, PubMed : 23273982). According to another report, PHF1 recruits the PRC2 complex at double-strand breaks (DSBs) and inhibits the activity of PRC2 (PubMed : 23142980). Regulates p53/TP53 stability and prolonges its turnover : may act by specifically binding to a methylated from of p53/TP53.
