PRDM16 Antibody (174A2D) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 kappa light chain antibody that detects PRDM16 protein of human origin by western blotting (WB). Anti-PRDM16 antibody (174A2D) is available as a non-conjugated format. PRDM16, also known as MEL1 or PFM13, is a crucial transcription factor localized in the nucleus, consisting of 1,276 amino acids that feature one SET domain and ten C2H2-type zinc fingers. This unique structure enables PRDM16 to interact with specific DNA sequences, thereby regulating gene expression essential for various cellular processes, including hematopoiesis and adipogenesis. PRDM16 plays a role in the pathogenesis of acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome, where dysregulation can lead to malignancy. PRDM16 exists in three isoforms due to alternative splicing, which contributes to functional diversity and potential implications in cancer biology. The imbalance between PR-plus and PR-minus products, often resulting from genetic or epigenetic changes, is a critical factor in tumorigenesis, highlighting PRDM16′s importance in cancer research.
