Monoclonal Anti-MAFA antibody produced in mouse

MAFA is a transcription factor that binds RIPE3b, a conserved enhancer element that regulates pancreatic beta cell-specific expression of the insulin gene (INS; MIM 176730) (Olbrot et al., 2002 [PubMed 12011435]).[supplied by OMIM

MAFA (NP_963883, 222 a.a. ~ 308 a.a) partial recombinant protein with GST tag. MW of the GST tag alone is 26 KDa.
