Immunohistochemistry-Paraffin: MITF Antibody (21D1418) [NB100-56561] - Analysis of a FFPE tissue section of human skin using 1:200 dilution of MITF (21D1418) antibody. The staining was developed using HRP labeled anti-mouse secondary antibody and DAB reagent, and nuclei of cells were counter-stained with hematoxylin. General cytoplasmic staining appears enriched in melanocytes below the epidermis. Some nuclear reactivity is observed as well.

Background: MITF

Microphthalmia-associated bHLH-LZ transcription factor (Mitf) is a positively acting transcription factor containing a transcription activation domain and a bHLH-LZ domain that mediates DNA-binding and dimerization. Both the transcription activation and bHLH-LZ domains are highly conserved in the closely related TFE3, TFEB and TFEC transcription factors. Mitf can form heterodimers in vitro with the above transcription factors, but not with other bHLH-LZ factors such as Myc, Max or USF. Mitf is expressed as multiple isoforms, which share common transcription activation and DNA-binding domains, but differ in the amino-terminal region. Mitf is targeted by three kinases: GSK-3beta, Map kinase ERK2 and members of the p90 Rsk family of kinases.
