Anti-Homeobox protein DBX2 DBX2 Antibody

DBX2 is a member of the developing brain homeobox (DBX) protein family, but while the related protein DBX1 is expressed in various regions of the developing brain, DBX2 shows a more restricted pattern of expression in the brain, and is also expressed in some mesenchymal cells such as limb buds and tooth germs. It is thought that DBX1 and DBX2 promote the development of a subset of interneurons, some of which help mediate left-right coordination of locomotor activity. In Xenopus, DBX2 is involved in primary neurogenesis and early neural plate patterning, and is thought to act as a cross-repressive partner of NKX6-2 in the patterning of the ventral neural tube.

DBX2 antibody was raised against a 16 amino acid synthetic peptide near the amino terminus of human DBX2. The immunogen is located within amino acids 30 - 80 of DBX2.

DBX2 antibody can be stored at 4°C for three months and -20°C, stable for up to one year. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Antibodies should not be exposed to prolonged high temperatures.
