Gene Information

human ... HOXA1(3198)

General description

HOXA1 is a homeobox transcription factor that may regulate differentiation and morphogenesis in cells. Mutations in HOXA1 have been linked to the risk of autism spectrum disorders and defects in the central nervous system.
Rabbit HOXA1 antibody recognizes human, mouse, rat, rabbit, bovine, and canine HOXA1.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the middle region of human HOXA1

Application

Rabbit HOXA1 antibody is suitable for western blot (2.5 μg/ml) and IHC (4-8 μg/ml) applications.

Biochem/physiol Actions

In vertebrates, the genes encoding the class of transcription factors called homeobox genes are found in clusters named A, B, C, and D on four separate chromosomes. Expression of these proteins is spatially and temporally regulated during embryonic development. HOXA1 is part of the A cluster on chromosome 7 and encodes a DNA-binding transcription factor which may regulate gene expression, morphogenesis, and differentiation. The encoded protein may be involved in the placement of hindbrain segments in the proper location along the anterior-posterior axis during development.

Sequence

Synthetic peptide located within the following region: NLGVSYSHSSCGPSYGSQNFSAPYSPYALNQEADPPRSLSLPRIGDIFSS

Physical form

Purified antibody supplied in 1x PBS buffer with 0.09% (w/v) sodium azide and 2% sucrose.

M Rossel et al.
Development (Cambridge, England), 126(22), 5027-5040 (1999-10-26)
The analysis of mice mutant for both Hoxa1 and Hoxb1 suggests that these two genes function together to pattern the hindbrain. Separately, mutations in Hoxa1 and Hoxb1 have profoundly different effects on hindbrain development. Hoxa1 mutations disrupt the rhombomeric organization
J L Ingram et al.
Teratology, 62(6), 393-405 (2000-11-25)
Family studies have demonstrated that the autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) have a major genetic etiologic component, but expression and penetrance of the phenotype are variable. Mice with null mutations of Hoxa1 or Hoxb1, two genes critical to hindbrain development, have
