This antibody is designed, produced, and validated as part of a collaboration between Rockland and the National Cancer Institute (NCI) and is suitable for Cancer, Immunology and Nuclear Signaling research. MECT1 (also known as MucoEpidermoid Carcinoma Translocated 1, Transducer of regulated cAMP response element-binding protein 1, TORC1, and Transducer of CREB protein 1) is a nuclear protein that functions as a transcriptional coactivator for CREB1, which activates transcription through both consensus and variant cAMP response element (CRE) sites. MECT1does not appear to modulate CREB1 DNA-binding activity but
This affinity purified antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 19-34 of human MECT1 protein.
