Description
Description: Rabbit IgG polyclonal antibody for Interferon-induced transmembrane protein 1(IFITM1) detection. Tested with WB, IHC-P, IHC-F in Human.
Background: Interferon-induced Transmembrane Protein 1(IFITM1), also called Interferon-induced Protein 17(IFI17). IFITM1 activity is required for primordial germ cells(PGCs) transit from the mesoderm into the endoderm, and that it appears to act via a repulsive mechanism, such that PGCs avoid Ifitm1-expressing tissues. It is mapped to Chr.11 and belongs to the family of interferon-induced transmembrane proteins(Ifitm/mil/fragilis), which encodes cell surface proteins that may modulate cell adhesion and influence cell differentiation. Interferon-inducible membrane proteins of approximately 17 kDa have been suggested to play a role in the antiproliferative activity of interferons based on their pattern of induction in interferon-sensitive and -resistant cell lines and the ability of a membrane fraction enriched in 17-kDa proteins to inhibit cell growth
