Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence: AP2 alpha Antibody (3B5) [NB100-74359] - Analysis of AP2 using Anti-AP2 Monoclonal Antibody (3B5) shows staining in Hela Cells. AP2 staining (green), F-Actin staining with Phalloidin (red) and nuclei with DAPI (blue) is shown. Cells were grown on chamber slides and fixed with formaldehyde prior to staining. Cells were probed without (control) or with or an antibody recognizing AP2 at a dilution of 1:100 over night at 4C, washed with PBS and incubated with a DyLight-488 conjugated secondary antibody. Images were taken at 60X magnification.

Background: AP2 alpha

Activation Protein transcription factor 2 (AP2) is a developmentally regulated transcription factor that recognizes a specific sequence CCCCAGGC or related sequences present in several promoter and enhancer gene regions including the promoters of the AP2 genes themselves. There are three different but highly homologous AP2 isoforms: alpha, beta, and gamma (ERF-1), encoded by three different retinoic acid-responsive genes. Each form of AP2 possesses the DNA binding domain (basic helix-span-helix motif) characteristic of this family of transcription factors. The AP2 proteins are normally expressed in ectodermally derived vertebrate tissues where they are necessary for normal growth and development. The factors have also been implicated in the control of cell proliferation, viral transformation, and oncogenesis. AP2 seems to play in important role in human breast cancer.
