- Extra Details:
- Wilms’ Tumor 1 (WT1) is a transcription factor named from Wilms’ Tumor 1, an embryonal malignancy of the kidneys that is caused by mutations in the WT1 gene (1). It is highly important in development, particularly of the genitourinary system, and mutations and dysregulation of expression of WT1 result in a variety of syndromes affecting the genitourinal system and other tissues (2-5). WT1 has myriad biological functions and a host of interacting partners and target genes (6). It can behave as a transcriptional activator, or a repressor, and can act as an oncogene or a tumor suppressor (7). It exerts influence over the epigenetic landscape, and also has post translational influence of gene expression through RNA interactions (8). The diverse biological roles of WT1 have been attributed to the existence of multiple isoforms and post translation modifications of the protein (9). Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 1:1000, incubate membrane with diluted antibody in 5% BSA, 1X TBS, 0.1% Tween-20 at 4°C with gentle shaking, overnight. Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 12 months after receipt. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
