Recombinant human PAX8 protein
Paired box protein Pax-8 isoform PAX8E, also known as PAX8, is expressed in the developing and adult thyroid, the developing secretory system and at lower levels, in the adult kidney. PAX8complexes with TTF-1 and TTF-2 to induce thyroid follicular cell differentiation and thyroid hormone biosynthesis by regulating the expression of sodium iodide symporter (NIS), thyroid peroxidase (TPO), thyroglobulin (TG) and the thyrotropin receptor (TSHR) . Defects in PAX8 are the cause of congenital hypothyroidism non-goitrous type 2 (CHNG2) . Recombinant human PAX8 protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
