EPAS-1 is a protein encoded by the EPAS1 gene which is approximately 96, 4 kDa. EPAS-1 is localised to the nucleus. It is involved in CDK-mediated phosphorylation and removal of Cdc6, HIF repressor pathways, signalling by PTK6 and development HGF signalling pathway. It is a transcription factor involved in the induction of oxygen regulated genes. It binds to a core DNA sequence within the hypoxia response element of target gene promoters and also regulates the vascular endothelial growth factor expression and seems to be implicated in the development of blood vessels and the tubular system of lung. EPAS-1 is expressed in most tissues, with highest levels in placenta, lung and heart. Mutations in the EPAS1 gene may result in erythrocytosis. STJ96690 was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen. This polyclonal antibody detects endogenous levels of EPAS-1 protein.
