Activity summary

USF1 also known as Upstream Stimulatory Factor 1 is a transcription factor with a molecular weight of about 43 kDa. It binds to specific DNA sequences to regulate transcription of target genes. This protein expresses in many tissues and is particularly abundant in the liver adipose tissue and muscle. It belongs to the bHLH (basic helix-loop-helix) family of transcription factors and it dimerizes to function effectively.

Biological function summary

USF1 plays a role in controlling lipid and glucose metabolism. As part of a transcriptional complex it regulates the expression of genes involved in metabolic processes. USF1 influences the transcription of genes tied to cholesterol biosynthesis such as HMGCR (3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase) and genes connected to fatty acid metabolism. Its activity helps manage the body's metabolic balance by controlling enzyme levels in these pathways.

Pathways

USF1 integrates within the lipid metabolism pathway and the insulin signaling pathway. In lipid metabolism it regulates enzymes that are critical for lipid homeostasis such as those involved in cholesterol synthesis. In the insulin signaling pathway USF1 interacts with proteins like SREBP-1c (Sterol Regulatory Element-Binding Protein 1c) affecting the expression of glucoregulatory genes. These interactions coordinate responses to metabolic demands and help maintain energy balance within cells.

Associated diseases and disorders

Several studies associate USF1 with dyslipidemia and metabolic syndrome. Variants of USF1 link to alterations in lipid profiles potentially increasing the risk for cardiovascular diseases. The protein interacts with other key regulators such as LXR (Liver X Receptor) influencing cholesterol metabolism and contributing to atherosclerosis development. Understanding USF1's role in these conditions can help develop targeted therapies for metabolic disorders.

    We have systematically measured KD (the equilibrium dissociation constant between the antibody and its antigen), of more than 840 recombinant antibodies to assess not only their individual KD values but also to see the average affinity of antibody.
    Based on the comparison with published literature values for mouse monoclonal antibodies, Recombinant antibodies appear to be on average 1-2 order of magnitude higher affinity.
