Source: E. coli. MW :19.9kD. Recombinant Human Early growth response protein 1 is produced by our E.coli expression system and the target gene encoding Gln282-Ser433 is expressed with a 6His tag at the N-terminus. EGR-1 belongs to the EGR family of C2H2-type zinc finger proteins. It is a nuclear protein and functions as a transcriptional regulator. EGR-1 recognizes and binds to the DNA sequence 5-CGCCCCCGC-3(EGR-site).The products of target genes it activates are required for differentiation and mitogenesis. Studies suggest this is a tumor suppressor gene. EGR-1 has a distinct pattern of expression in the brain, and its induction has been shown to be associated with neuronal activity. Several studies suggest it has a role in neuronal plasticity. EGR-1 has also been found to regulate the expression of synaptobrevin II (a protein important for synaptic exocytosis).
