Description

General description

Gli3 can function as both a transcriptional activator and repressor of the sonic hedgehog (Shh) pathway. The full-length Gli3 form (GLI3FL) becomes an activator (GLI3A) after phosphorylation and nuclear translocation. The C-terminally truncated form (GLI3R), acts as a repressor. Proper balance between the Gli3 activator and the repressor specifies limb digit number and identity during development. In concert with TRPS1, Gli3 plays a role in activating chondrocyte proliferation. Gli3 is expressed in several normal adult tissues, including lung, colon, spleen, placenta, testis, and myometrium. Gli3 defects are associated with Greig cephalo-poly-syndactyly syndrome (GCPS), Pallister-Hall syndrome (PHS), polydactyly postaxial type A1 (PAPA1), polydactyly postaxial type B polydactyly (PAPB), and polydactyly preaxial type 4 (POP4).

Specificity

This antibody recognizes the truncated, repressor form and the full length protein of human Gli3.

Immunogen

Recombinant protein corresponding to the putative repressive motif of human GLI3.

Application

Immunocytochemistry Analysis: A representative lot detected Gli3 in PK-15, COS-1, and TM4 cells cotransfected with recombinant Gli3 (Hunt, R., et al. (2007). Hybridoma. 27(4):231-240.).

Immunohistochemistry Analysis: A representative lot detected Gli3 in mouse embryo cross-sections (Laht, S., et al. (2008). Hybridoma. 27(3):167-174.).

Research Category
Signaling

Research Sub Category
Developmental Signaling

This Gli3 antibody is validated for use in WB, ICC & IHC for the detection of the Gli3 protein.

Quality

Evaluated by Western Blotting in human thymus tissue lysate.

Western Blotting Analysis: A 1:1,000 dilution from a representative lot detected in Gli3 in 10 µg of human thymus tissue lysate.

Target description

~75 kDa and ~200 kDa observed. The truncated, repressor form and full length form of this protein has been observed at ~83 kDa and ~190 kDa, respectively (Tanimoto, Y., et al. (2012). J Biol Chem. 287(25):21429-21438.). Uncharacterized bands may be observed at ~160 kDa and below ~50 kDa in some cell lysates.

Physical form

Purified mouse monoclonal IgMκ in buffer containing PBS with 0.05% sodium azide.

Storage and Stability

Stable for 1 year at 2-8°C from date of receipt.
