This antibody recognises GATA3 also known as trans-acting T-cell-specific transcription factor GATA-3 or GATA-binding factor 3.The GATA3 protein is a member of the GATA family of transcription factors which has received its name from binding DNA sequences containing the GATA consensus motif 5'-[AT]GATA[AG]-3' (P15976). GATA3 has been shown to play a critical role in T cell development and the differentiation of T helper 2 (Th2) cells. In addition, GATA3 has been implied to have tissue specific functions such as a regulatory role in the development of the mammary gland epithelium and skin tissue. Aberrant GATA3 levels have also been identified in a variety of cancers including breast cancer. Indeed, GATA3 has become a marker for certain breast cancer types and GATA3 antibodies are commonly used for the immunohistochemical evaluation of breast cancer samples.

General Notes
Mouse anti GATA3 antibody clone 1A12-1D9 recognizes GATA3 also known as trans-acting T-cell-specific transcription factor GATA-3 or GATA-binding factor 3.The GATA3 protein is a member of the GATA family of transcription factors which has received its name from binding DNA sequences containing the GATA consensus motif 5'-[AT]GATA[AG]-3' (P15976). GATA3 has been shown to play a critical role in T cell development and the differentiation of T helper 2 (Th2) cells (Ho et al. 1991). In addition, GATA3 has been implied to have tissue specific functions such as a regulatory role in the development of the mammary gland epithelium and skin tissue (Chou et al. 2010).Aberrant GATA3 levels have also been identified in a variety of cancers including breast cancer. Indeed, GATA3 has become a marker for certain breast cancer types and GATA3 antibodies are commonly used for the immunohistochemical evaluation of breast cancer samples (Krings et al. 2014).
