Application

Immunohistochemistry Analysis: 1:400 dilution from a represenative lot detected PDX1 in normal human pancreas tissue.

Anti-PDX1 (goat) Antibody is a Goat Polyclonal Antibody for detection of PDX1 also known as pancreatic & duodenal homeobox 1, somatostatin transcription factor 1, Insulin promoter factor 1 & has been validated in WB & IHC.

General description

Transcription factor PDX1, also known as pancreatic and duodenal homeobox 1, activates expression of the insulin and somatostatin genes. This protein is a key regulator of islet peptide hormone expression and also plays an essential role in pancreatic development. It has been shown to interact with the basic helix-loop-helix domains of TCF3(E47) and NEUROD1 and with HMG-I(Y). This protein also interacts with the methyltransferase SETD7. Mutations in this gene may be involved in several disorders of the pancreas or in diabetes mellitus.

Immunogen

Recombinant protein corresponding to the N-terminus of mouse PDX1.
