Anti-IRX1 Antibody Picoband®, Cy3 Conjugate

Iroquois-class homeodomain protein IRX-1, also known as Iroquois homeobox protein 1, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the IRX1 gene. This gene encodes a member of the Iroquois homeobox protein family. Homeobox genes in this family are involved in pattern formation in the embryo. The gene product has been identified as a tumor suppressor in gastric and head and neck cancers. A pseudogene of this gene is located on chromosome 13.
