Quick Overview for PDX1 antibody (N-Term) (ABIN6972509)

Target: PDX1 (Pancreatic and Duodenal Homeobox 1 (PDX1))

Reactivity: Human

Host: Rabbit

Clonality: Polyclonal

Conjugate: This PDX1 antibody is un-conjugated

Product Details anti-PDX1 Antibody

Binding Specificity: N-Term

Characteristics: PDX1 (pancreatic and duodenal homeobox 1, GSF, IPF1, IUF1, IDX-1, MODY4, PDX-1, STF-1) activates insulin, somatostatin, glucokinase, islet amyloid polypeptide and glucose transporter type 2 gene transcription. Particularly involved in glucose-dependent regulation of insulin gene transcription. Binds preferentially the DNA motif 5'-[CT]TAAT[TG]-3'. During development, specifies the early pancreatic epithelium, permitting its proliferation, branching and subsequent differentiation. At adult stage, required for maintaining the hormone-producing phenotype of the beta-cell. PDX1 antibody (pAb) was raised in a Rabbit host. It has been validated for use in Western blot, it has been shown to react with Human samples.
