Western blot analysis of PRDM1 over-expressed 293 cell line, cotransfected with PRDM1 Validated Chimera RNAi ( Cat # H00000639-R01V ) (Lane 2) or non-transfected control (Lane 1). Blot probed with PRDM1 monoclonal antibody (M01), clone 2B10 (Cat # H00000639-M01 ). GAPDH ( 36.1 kDa ) used as specificity and loading control.
This gene encodes a protein that acts as a repressor of beta-interferon gene expression. The protein binds specifically to the PRDI (positive regulatory domain I element) of the beta-IFN gene promoter. Transcription of this gene increases upon virus induction. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different isoforms have been reported. [provided by RefSeq
