SREBP2 Antibodies

Sterol regulatory element-binding proteins (SREBPs) are transcription factors that are members of the basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper family of DNA binding proteins. Three isoforms have been identified in mammalian tissues that vary in structure, regulation, and function. SREBP-1a and SREBP-1c (originally cloned as ADD1) are protein products of alternative promoter usage of the SREBP-1 gene. The third isoform is transcribed from a different gene, SREBP-2. SREBPs are present as 120 kDa inactive precursors in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane. Upon activation, the SREBP protein is translocated to the Golgi and proteolytic cleavage occurs resulting in ...
