Highly specific and rigorously validated in-house, HIF-1 alpha (D1S7W) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (SignalFlex\u003csup\u003e™\u003c\/sup\u003e Pacific Blue\u003csup\u003e™\u003c\/sup\u003e Conjugate) (CST #70421) is ready to ship.\n\n\u003cb\u003eProduct Usage Information\u003c\/b\u003e\nSignalFlex™ conjugates are produced using highly validated Cell Signaling Technology ® primary antibodies and conjugation methods that have been rigorously tested, ensuring high-quality conjugates and lot-to-lot consistency. These conjugates are quality control tested by size exclusion chromatography (SEC) to determine antibody integrity. However, they are not tested on specific assays. Optimal dilutions\/concentrations should be determined by the end user. When performing flow cytometry, we recommend using an isotype control conjugate at the same concentration as the antibody conjugate.\n\u003cb\u003eStorage\u003c\/b\u003e\nSupplied in PBS (pH 7.2), less than 0.1% sodium azide, and 2 mg\/mL BSA. Store at 4°C. Do not aliquot the antibody. Protect from light. Do not freeze.\n\u003cb\u003eSpecificity \/ Sensitivity\u003c\/b\u003e\nHIF-1 alpha (D1S7W) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (SignalFlex™ Pacific Blue™ Conjugate) recognizes endogenous levels of total HIF-1α protein.

The HIF1 complex consists of two subunits, HIF-1α and HIF-1β, which are basic helix-loop-helix proteins of the PAS (Per, ARNT, Sim) family (2). HIF1 regulates the transcription of a broad range of genes that facilitate responses to the hypoxic environment, including genes regulating angiogenesis, erythropoiesis, cell cycle, metabolism, and apoptosis. The widely expressed HIF-1α is typically degraded rapidly in normoxic cells by the ubiquitin\/proteasomal pathway. Under normoxic conditions, HIF-1α is proline hydroxylated leading to a conformational change that promotes binding to the von Hippel-Lindau protein (VHL) E3 ligase complex; ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation follows (3,4). Both hypoxic conditions and chemical hydroxylase inhibitors (such as desferrioxamine and cobalt) inhibit HIF-1α degradation and lead to its stabilization. In addition, HIF-1α can be induced in an oxygen-independent manner by various cytokines through the PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway (5-7). HIF-1β is also known as AhR nuclear translocator (ARNT) due to its ability to partner with the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) to form a heterodimeric transcription factor complex (8). Together with AhR, HIF-1β plays an important role in xenobiotic metabolism (8). In addition, a chromosomal translocation leading to a TEL-ARNT fusion protein is associated with acute myeloblastic leukemia (9). Studies also found that ARNT\/HIF-1β expression levels decrease significantly in pancreatic islets from patients with type 2 diabetes, suggesting that HIF-1β plays an important role in pancreatic β-cell function (10).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nARNT interacting protein; ARNT-interacting protein; Basic-helix-loop-helix-PAS protein MOP1; BHLHE78; Class E basic helix-loop-helix protein 78; HIF-1-alpha; HIF-1A; HIF-1alpha; HIF1; HIF1-alpha; HIF1A; hypoxia inducible factor 1 alpha subunit; hypoxia inducible factor 1 subunit alpha; hypoxia inducible factor 1, alpha subunit (basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor); hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha isoform I.3; Hypoxia-inducible factor 1-alpha; hypoxia-inducible factor 1, alpha subunit (basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor); hypoxia-inducible factor1alpha; Member of PAS protein 1; member of PAS superfamily 1; MOP1; PAS domain-containing protein 8; PASD8\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M Mk\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46800516448425,"sku":"70421W2","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-70421w2","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
