Western blot of Biotin anti-TFAM antibody (clone 18G102B2E11). Lane 1: Molecular weight marker; Lane 2: 20 µg of human brain lysate. The blot was incubated with 0.50 µg/mL of the primary antibody overnight at 4°C, followed by incubation with HRP Streptavidin (Cat. No. 405210). Enhanced chemiluminescence (Cat. No. 426302) was used as the detection system.
TFAM (Transcription Factor A, Mitochondrial) binds to the mitochondrial light strand promoter and functions in mitochondrial transcription regulation, and DNA replication and repair. The protein is required for accurate and efficient promoter recognition by mitochondrial RNA polymerase. Sequence polymorphisms in the TFAM gene are associated with Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. Other diseases associated with TFAM include Mitochondrial DNA Depletion Syndrome, Hepatocerebral Form and Deoxyguanosine Kinase Deficiency.

Antigen Details
- Structure
- TFAM is synthesized as a precursor form with a mitochondrial targeting peptide, which is removed by processing after import to the mitochondria. Mature TFAM has an apparent molecular weight of ~25 kD. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
