Product Name :
TEF (K224) Peptide Applications :
Blocking Background :
TEF (thyrotrophic embryonic factor), also known as KIAA1655, is a 303 amino acid nuclear transcription factor that belongs to the bZIP (basic region/leucine zipper) family and PAR (proline and acidic amino acid-rich) subfamily. TEF binds DNA as either a homodimer or heterodimer, and is known to transactivate the TSHβ promoter. While broadly expressed in adults, TEF is only found in developing embryonic anterior pituitary gland. TEF accumulates according to a robust circadian rhythm and has also been found to inhibit cell growth by downregulating β chain expression of cytokine receptors. The functional domains of TEF are highly homologous with other members of the PAR-bZIP subfamily, including albumin D box-binding protein (DABP), human hepatic leukemia factor (HLF) and chicken vitellogenin gene-binding protein (VBP). The gene encoding TEF maps to human chromosome 22q13.2. Alternative Name :
