The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen and the purity is > 95% (by SDS-PAGE).
Brn-5 (Brain-5), also known as POU6F1, MPOU or TCFB1, is a widely expressed protein but during embryogenesis is exclusively found in the developing brain and spinal cord. As is characteristic of Brn family members, Brn-5 contains two DNA-binding domains, namely the POU-specific domain and the POU homeodomain, which each contain an HTH (helix-turn-helix) motif. Brn-5 binds to CRH (corticotrophin-releasing hormone) elements with high affinity and is capable of both enhancing Prolactin gene expression and activating Pit-1 expression.
