Pax-9 Polyclonal Antibody

PAX9 is a member of the paired box (PAX) family of transcription factors. Members of PAX9 family typically contain a paired box domain, an octapeptide, and a paired-type homeodomain. These genes play critical roles during fetal development and cancer growth. Mice lacking PAX9 exhibit impaired development of organs, musculature and the skeleton, including absent and abnormally developed teeth, and neonatal lethality. Mutations in the human gene are associated with selective tooth agenesis-3.
