Analysis of ETS1 Gene Rearrangement by Southern Blot Technology (CAT#: STEM-MHT-0043-LGZ)

Introduction

Official Full Name: ETS proto-oncogene 1, transcription factor
Also known as: p54; ETS-1; EWSR2; c-ets-1
This gene encodes a member of the ETS transcription factor family defined by a conserved ETS DNA-binding domain that recognizes the core consensus DNA sequence GGAA/T in target genes. These proteins act as transcriptional activators or repressors of various genes involved in stem cell development, cell senescence and death, and tumorigenesis. Alternative splice transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene.




Principle

Under certain conditions, two single strands of nucleic acid with certain homology can be specifically hybridized to form double strands according to the principle of base complementarity. Generally, DNA molecules to be detected are digested with restriction enzymes, separated by agar-gel electrophoresis, denatured and transferred to nitrocellulocellulose film or nylon film or other solid phase support according to their position in the gel, fixed and then reacted with DNA probes labeled with isotopes or other markers. This is followed by autoradiography or an enzyme reaction to detect the amount of specific DNA molecules. If the object to be tested contains a sequence that is complementary to the probe, the two are combined by the principle of base complementarity, and the free probe is washed and detected by self-development or other suitable techniques, thus revealing the fragment to be tested and its relative size.
