A portion of amino acids 365-671 from the human protein was used as the immunogen for this TCF4 antibody.
Recognizes a protein of 71kDa, identified as Transcription Factor 4 (TCF4). It is a basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor. The encoded protein recognizes an Ephrussi-box (E-box) binding site (CANNTG) - a motif first identified in immunoglobulin enhancers. This gene is broadly expressed, and may play an important role in nervous system development. Defects in this gene are a cause of Pitt-Hopkins syndrome.
