Gene Information

human ... HOXB13(10481)

General description

The HOXB13 gene is located on the human chromosome at 17q21.32. This gene is expressed in both fetal dermis and proliferating fibroblasts.

Specificity

Anti-HOXB13 recognizes human HOXB13.

Immunogen

synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 270-284 of human HOXB13, conjugated to KLH. The corresponding sequence differs by 2 amino acids in mouse and rat.

Application

Anti-HOXB13 antibody produced in rabbit may be used in immunoblotting and immunoprecipitation.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Homeobox B13 (HOXB13) gene expression is essential for amphibian limb regeneration. It plays a role in fetal skin development and cutaneous regeneration as a result of wounding. HOXB13 gene is overexpressed in human endometrial, breast, ovarian and cervical carcinomas and is associated with the invasiveness of ovarian and endometrial cancer cells. Mutations in the HOXB13 gene leads to prostate cancer.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.

Storage and Stability

For continuous use, store at 2-8 °C for up to one month. For extended storage, freeze in working aliquots at –20 °C. Repeated freezing and thawing, or storage in “frost-free” freezers, is not recommended. If slight turbidity occurs upon prolonged storage, clarify the solution by centrifugation before use. Working dilutions should be discarded if not used within 12 hours.
