KLF4 Antibody / Stem Cell Transcription Factor Antibody recognizes Kruppel-like factor 4 (KLF4), a zinc finger transcription factor that plays fundamental roles in stem cell maintenance, epithelial differentiation, cell cycle regulation, and tissue homeostasis. KLF4 binds GC-rich promoter elements through three C-terminal zinc finger domains to regulate genes controlling proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, and cellular identity. Because KLF4 can function as either a transcriptional activator or repressor depending on cellular context, it serves as an important regulator of developmental and physiological processes. KLF4 Antibody is widely used to investigate stem cell biology, transcriptional regulation, and epithelial function.
KLF4 is highly expressed in differentiated epithelial tissues, including the skin and gastrointestinal tract, where it promotes terminal differentiation and maintenance of epithelial barrier integrity. The protein also contributes to vascular biology, immune regulation, and responses to cellular stress. One of KLF4's best-known functions is its role as one of the four Yamanaka transcription factors used to reprogram differentiated somatic cells into induced pluripotent stem cells. Through interactions with OCT4, SOX2, and c-MYC, KLF4 helps establish and maintain pluripotency while regulating self-renewal and lineage commitment.
Altered KLF4 expression has been associated with numerous human diseases, particularly cancer. Depending on tissue type and molecular context, KLF4 may function as either a tumor suppressor or an oncogene by regulating proliferation, differentiation, epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition, stemness, and therapeutic response. Dysregulated KLF4 signaling has also been linked to inflammatory disorders, cardiovascular disease, tissue regeneration, and wound healing. Consequently, KLF4 Antibody has become an important reagent for studies of cancer biology, regenerative medicine, developmental biology, and cellular reprogramming.
KLF4 is commonly analyzed by Western blotting, immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence, immunoprecipitation, flow cytometry, and chromatin-associated studies to evaluate protein expression, nuclear localization, and transcriptional activity. A KLF4 Antibody is a valuable research tool for investigating stem cell maintenance, pluripotency, epithelial differentiation, transcriptional regulation, cellular reprogramming, and cancer-associated signaling pathways.
Explore our Stem Cell Marker Antibodies page to discover additional antibodies for investigating pluripotency, cellular reprogramming, self-renewal, lineage commitment, and stem cell-associated transcriptional networks.
The stated application concentrations are suggested starting points. Titration of the KLF4 Antibody / Stem Cell Transcription Factor Antibody may be required due to differences in protocols and secondary/substrate sensitivity.
An amino acid sequence from the N-terminus of human KLF4 (RRETEEFNDLLDLDFI) was used as the immunogen for this KLF4 antibody (100% homologous in human, mouse and rat).
After reconstitution, the KLF4 antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20oC. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
