VAX1 Antibody

VAX1 is a homeo-domain containing protein from a class of homeobox transcription factors which are conserved in vertebrates. It may play an important role in the development of anterior ventral forebrain and visual system.This gene encodes a homeo-domain containing protein from a class of homeobox transcription factors which are conserved in vertebrates. Genes of this family are involved in the regulation of body development and morphogenesis. The most conserved genes, called HOX genes are found in special gene clusters. This gene belongs to the VAX subfamily and lies in the vicinity of the EMX homeobox gene family. Another member of VAX family is located on chromosome 2. The encoded protein may play an important role in the development of anterior ventral forebrain and visual system. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

For short periods of storage (days) store at 4˚ C. For longer periods of storage, store VAX1 antibody at -20˚ C. As with any antibody avoid repeat freeze-thaw cycles.

VAX1 antibody can be used for detection of VAX1 by ELISA at 1:62500. VAX1 antibody can be used for detection of VAX1 by western blot at 1.0 μ g/mL, and HRP conjugated secondary antibody should be diluted 1:50,000 - 100,000.
