Product Description
PROX1 Antibody (Center) [APR12988G] | Leading Biology
Product Category: Polyclonal Antibodies
Host: Rabbit
Species Reactivity: H, M
Specificity: This PROX1 antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 185-214 amino acids from the Central region of human PROX1.
Cellular Localisation: Nucleus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P48437}. Note=RORG promotes its nuclear localization. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P48437}
Molecular Weight: 83203
Clone: Polyclonal
Gene Name: PROX1
Gene ID: 5629
Function: Transcription factor involved in developmental processes such as cell fate determination, gene transcriptional regulation and progenitor cell regulation in a number of organs. Plays a critical role in embryonic development and functions as a key regulatory protein in neurogenesis and the development of the heart, eye lens, liver, pancreas and the lymphatic system. Involved in the regulation of the circadian rhythm. Represses: transcription of the retinoid-related orphan receptor RORG, transcriptional activator activity of RORA and RORG and the expression of RORA/G-target genes including core clock components: ARNTL/BMAL1, NPAS2 and CRY1 and metabolic genes: AVPR1A and ELOVL3.
Summary: Tissue Location: Most actively expressed in the developing lens. Detected also in embryonic brain, lung, liver and kidney. In adult, it is more abundant in heart and liver than in brain, skeletal muscle, kidney and pancreas.
Form: Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification.
Storage: Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Application: WB, IHC-P
Dilution: WB--1:2000
Synonyms: Prospero homeobox protein 1, Homeobox prospero-like protein PROX1, PROX-1, PROX1
