Description

General description

Paired box (PAX) genes are tissue specific homeodomain transcription factors involved in fetal and early animal tissue and cell specification and processes such as limb regeneration. Paired box gene 4 (PAX4) participates in pancreatic islet development and the differentiation of insulin-producing β cells. PAX4) is indispensable for the establishment of the β-cell lineage during development and for mature β-cell expansion and survival.

Rabbit polyclonal anti-PAX4 antibody reacts with canine, rabbit, human, mouse, and rat paired box gene 4 transcription factors.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the middle region of human PAX4

Application

Rabbit Anti-PAX4 antibody can be used for western blot applications at a concentration of 0.5-2.0μg/ml. It can also be used for IHC at 4-8μg/ml using paraffin-embedded tissues.

Rabbit polyclonal anti-PAX4 antibody is used to tag paired box gene 4 for detection and quantitation by immunocytochemical and immunohistochemical (IHC) techniques. It is used as a probe to determine the presence and roles of paired box gene 4 in the differentiation, expansion and survival of pancreatic insulin-producing β cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

PAX4 is a member of the paired box (PAX) family of transcription factors. Members of this gene family typically contain a paired box domain, an octapeptide, and a paired-type homeodomain. These genes play critical roles during fetal development and cancer growth. The paired box gene 4 is involved in pancreatic islet development and mouse studies have demonstrated a role for this gene in differentiation of insulin-producing .- cells.
