Gene Information
human ... EMX1(2016)
General description
EMX1 (empty spiracles homeobox 1) gene is localized to human chromosome 2p14-p13. It is a late and narrow expression gene. It is a homeodomain transcription factor. It is a human ortholog of ems (empty spiracles) protein found in Drosophila. This protein is a resident of nucleus. In embryos, the expression of this gene is restricted to cerebral cortex and olfactory bulbs.

Application
All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.
The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions
EMX1 (empty spiracles homeobox 1) interacts with WDR11, which is a part of olfactory neuron development. In developing central nervous system, this protein determines cell fates. It participates in sonic hedgehog-Patched-Gli (Shh-Ptch-Gli) signaling pathway, where it acts as an effector protein for Gli-Kruppel family member 3. EMX1-lineage derived cells are responsible for two types of neuronal population in mature basal forebrain namely, a subclass of distinct amygdala excitatory neurons, and medium spiny neurons (MSNs) in the striatum. Thus, this protein determines the striatum and amygdala fate of developing neurons.
Features and Benefits
Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
- IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
- Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

In the developing mammalian basal telencephalon, neural progenitors from the subpallium generate the majority of inhibitory medium spiny neurons (MSNs) in the striatum, while both pallial- and subpallial-derived progenitors contribute to excitatory and inhibitory neuronal diversity in the amygdala.
