    Protocol

    Specificity / Sensitivity

    Miz-1 Antibody recognizes endogenous levels of total Miz-1 protein. This antibody cross-reacts with a 60 kDa protein of unknown origin in some cell lines.

    Species Reactivity:

    Human, Mouse

    Source / Purification

    Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Pro158 of human Miz-1 protein. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.

    Background

    Miz-1 (Zbtb17) is a poxvirus and zinc finger (POZ) transcription factor with an amino-terminal BTB/POZ domain and 13 carboxy-terminal zinc finger domains. Miz-1 plays a key role in cell cycle control through activation of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors p15, INK4B, and p21 Waf1/Cip1 (1-4). The transcriptional activity of Miz-1 is repressed through direct interaction with Myc (1-4). In the presence of DNA damage, Myc is recruited to the p21 Waf1/Cip1 promoter by Miz-1 and blocks p53-mediated induction of p21 Waf1/Cip1, ultimately resulting in p53-mediated apoptosis rather than cell cycle arrest (4). Miz-1 also plays a role during lymphocyte development. In developing B and T cells, Miz-1 represses suppressor of cytokine signaling 1 (SOCS1) expression, which enables signaling through the IL-7 receptor and upregulation of the pro-survival protein Bcl-2 (5,6).
