This antibody clone is manufactured by Abcam.

The GAL4 Activation Domain monoclonal antibody binds specifically to the AD of the yeast GAL4 protein. This antibody is useful for verifying the expression and correct molecular weight of fusion proteins containing GAL4 AD as the fusion partner in two hybrid studies. The activation domain is typically used in a two-hybrid experiment as the fusion partner for a library of cDNA clones to screen against a protein of interest fused to a DNA-binding domain. Gal4is a positive regulator for the gene expression of the galactose-induced genes such as GAL1, GAL2, GAL7, GAL10, and MEL1 which encode for the enzymes used to convert galactose to glucose. It recognizes a 17 base pair sequence in (5'-CGGRNNRCYNYNCNCCG-3') the upstream activating sequence (UAS-G) of these genes.

Product was previously marketed under the MitoSciences sub-brand.

Reproducibility is key to advancing scientific discovery and accelerating scientists’ next breakthrough.

Abcam is leading the way with our range of recombinant antibodies, knockout-validated antibodies and knockout cell lines, all of which support improved reproducibility.

We are also planning to innovate the way in which we present recommended applications and species on our product datasheets, so that only applications & species that have been tested in our own labs, our suppliers or by selected trusted collaborators are covered by our Abpromise™ guarantee.

In preparation for this, we have started to update the applications & species that this product is Abpromise guaranteed for.

We are also updating the applications & species that this product has been “predicted to work with,” however this information is not covered by our Abpromise guarantee.

Applications & species from publications and Abreviews that have not been tested in our own labs or in those of our suppliers are not covered by the Abpromise guarantee.

Please check that this product meets your needs before purchasing.
