    Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acid sequence surrounding Pro92 of human KLF4. Antibodies are purified by Protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.

    Background

    KLF4 is a member of the erythroid Kruppel-like factor (EKLF) multigene family that is highly expressed in the differentiating layers of the epidermis (1, 2). KLF4 plays a critical role in the differentiation of epithelial cells and is essential for normal gastric homeostasis (2,3). Depending on the target gene, KLF4 can function as both a repressor and activator of transcription (4). Research studies suggest this protein may function as either a tumor suppressor or an oncogene depending on tumor type, with up-regulation in human squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck and down-regulation in colorectal carcinoma (5,6). The in vitro reprogramming of somatic cells to an embryonic-like state has been achieved by retroviral transduction of four factors: Oct-3/4, Sox2, c-Myc, and KLF4 (7). These induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS) are of great therapeutic interest as they exhibit the key characteristics and growth properties of pluripotent stem cells (8,9).
