EKLF (W318) polyclonal antibody

The Kruppel-type zinc finger transcription factors comprise a conserved family of DNA binding proteins that are important in developmental regulation. The Kruppel zinc finger transcription factor was initially identified in Drosophila as a segmentation gene. Kruppel-like factors that have been characterized in mammals include EKLF, LKLF and GKLF. EKLF is expressed principally in erythroid tissues, and LKLF expression is limited to the lung. GKLF is found predominantly in gut and has been shown to be expressed during growth arrest.
