The NAIF1 Antibody from MyBioSource.com is a Rabbit Polyclonal antibody to NAIF1. This antibody recognizes Human antigen. The NAIF1 Antibody has been validated for the following applications: Immunohistochemistry, and Western Blot.
Description
Human NAIF1 is located on chromosome 9q34.11 and encodes 327 amino acids with a homeodomain-like region and two nuclear localization signals at its N-terminal region. NAIF1 is conserved across diverse species, including human, mouse, crab-eating macaque, dog, chicken and frog, and shares no obvious homology to any known genes or proteins. NAIF1 was predominantly localized in the nucleus. Overexpression of NAIF1 inhibited cell growth and induced apoptosis. Furthermore, NAIF1 transfection caused both decreases in mitochondrial membrane potential and caspase-3 activation. In summary, NAIF1 is a nuclear protein that induces apoptosis when overexpressed
