SKU:: 378044
Purity:: Purified by immunoaffinity chromatography.
Storage Conditions:: -20°C
Supplier:: United States Biological
Host:: Rabbit
Immunogen:: Synthetic peptide corresponding to human PTX3.
Format:: Supplied as a liquid in PBS, pH 7.4. No preservative added.
Extra Details:: Pitx3, the third member of the Pitx family, is expressed in the eyes and in only one population of neurons, the dopaminergic neurons of the midbrain. In human, mutations of the Pitx3 gene have been associated with a familial form of cataracts, which is consistent with one of the developmental roles of this gene. Pitx3 expression in the midbrain starts just before terminal differentiation of dopaminergic neurons. This temporal expression is consistent with a role of Pitx3 in the differentiation and/or maintenance of these neurons. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilutions: Western Blot: 1:200-1:1000 (ECL) Immunohistochemistry: 1:200-1:1000 Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
