products description :
Description: Rabbit IgG polyclonal antibody for Nuclear respiratory factor 1(NRF1) detection. Tested with WB, IHC-P, ICC in Human, Mouse, Rat. Background: NRF1(Nuclear Respiratory Factor 1), also known as Alpha-Pal. Gopalakrishnan and Scarpulla(1995) analyzed DNA from a panel of human/hamster cell hybrids using human-specific NRF1 PCR primers and localized the NRF1 gene to human chromosome 7. The assignment was further refined to 7q31 by cohybridization of NRF1- and chromosome 7-specific probes to human metaphase chromosomes. Efiok et al.(1994) identified genes containing alpha-Pal-binding sequences and found that these could be classified either as cellular proliferation genes, or as genes regulating the growth-responsive metabolic pathways of energy transduction, translation, and replication. Virbasius and Scarpulla(1994) noted that the nuclear-encoded mitochondrial transcription factor TFAM contains potential binding sites for NRF1, NRF2(GABPA) and SP1 within the promoter region. With use of binding and electrophoretic mobility shift assays, DNase footprinting, and mutation analysis of recombinant proteins, they demonstrated specific and functional binding of NRF1 and NRF2 to the TFAM promoter region.

ncbi summary :
This gene encodes a protein that homodimerizes and functions as a transcription factor which activates the expression of some key metabolic genes regulating cellular growth and nuclear genes required for respiration, heme biosynthesis, and mitochondrial DNA transcription and replication. The protein has also been associated with the regulation of neurite outgrowth. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Confusion has occurred in bibliographic databases due to the shared symbol of NRF1 for this gene and for "nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 1" which has an official symbol of NFE2L1.

uniprot summary :
NRF1: Transcription factor that activates the expression of the EIF2S1 (EIF2-alpha) gene. Links the transcriptional modulation of key metabolic genes to cellular growth and development. Implicated in the control of nuclear genes required for respiration, heme biosynthesis, and mitochondrial DNA transcription and replication. Belongs to the NRF1/Ewg family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. Protein type: DNA-binding; Transcription factor. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 7q32. Cellular Component: nucleoplasm; cytoplasm. Biological Process: regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter; mitochondrion organization and biogenesis; generation of precursor metabolites and energy; organ regeneration; transcription, DNA-dependent; response to folic acid; organelle organization and biogenesis; response to hypoxia; response to lipopolysaccharide; positive regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter; cellular lipid metabolic process; response to electrical stimulus; response to estradiol stimulus
