HOXA5 Antibody

In vertebrates, the genes encoding the class of transcription factors called homeobox genes are found in clusters named A, B, C, and D on four separate chromosomes. Expression of these proteins is spatially and temporally regulated during embryonic development. HOXA5 is a DNA-binding transcription factor which may regulate gene expression, morphogenesis, and differentiation. Methylation of the gene encoding HOXA5 may result in the loss of its expression and, since the encoded protein upregulates the tumor suppressor p53, this protein may play an important role in tumorigenesis.In vertebrates, the genes encoding the class of transcription factors called homeobox genes are found in clusters named A, B, C, and D on four separate chromosomes. Expression of these proteins is spatially and temporally regulated during embryonic development. This gene is part of the A cluster on chromosome 7 and encodes a DNA-binding transcription factor which may regulate gene expression, morphogenesis, and differentiation. Methylation of this gene may result in the loss of its expression and, since the encoded protein upregulates the tumor suppressor p53, this protein may play an important role in tumorigenesis.

For short periods of storage (days) store at 4˚ C. For longer periods of storage, store HOXA5 antibody at -20˚ C. As with any antibody avoid repeat freeze-thaw cycles.

HOXA5 antibody can be used for detection of HOXA5 by ELISA at 1:312500. HOXA5 antibody can be used for detection of HOXA5 by western blot at 1 μ g/mL, and HRP conjugated secondary antibody should be diluted 1:50,000 - 100,000.
