CST, 87246W2, FoxP1 (D35D10) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (SignalFlex™ Alexa Fluor® 488 Conjugate)

Monoclonal Antibody for studying FOXP1. Highly specific and rigorously validated in-house, FoxP1 (D35D10) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (SignalFlex^™ Alexa Fluor^® 488 Conjugate) (CST #87246) is ready to ship. Product Usage Information SignalFlex™ conjugates are produced using highly validated Cell Signaling Technology ® primary antibodies and conjugation methods that have been rigorously tested, ensuring high-quality conjugates and lot-to-lot consistency. These conjugates are quality control tested by size exclusion chromatography (SEC) to determine antibody integrity. However, they are not tested on specific assays. Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user. When performing flow cytometry, we recommend using an isotype control conjugate at the same concentration as the antibody conjugate. Storage Supplied in PBS (pH 7.2), less than 0.1% sodium azide, and 2 mg/mL BSA. Store at 4°C. Do not aliquot the antibody. Protect from light. Do not freeze. Specificity / Sensitivity FoxP1 (D35D10) XP Species Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat, Monkey Source / Purification Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Leu584 of human FoxP1 protein. Background Forkhead box (Fox) proteins are a family of evolutionarily conserved transcription factors containing a sequence known as Forkhead box or winged helix DNA binding domain (1). The human genome contains 43 Fox proteins that are divided into subfamilies. The FoxP subfamily has four members, FoxP1 - FoxP4, which are broadly expressed and play important roles in organ development, immune response and cancer pathogenesis (2-4). The FoxP subfamily has several characteristics that are atypical among Fox proteins: their Forkhead domain is located at the carboxy-terminal region and they contain motifs that promote homo- and heterodimerization. FoxP proteins usually function as transcriptional repressors (4,5). FoxP1 plays an important role in cardiac valve and B cell development. Targeted deletion of FoxP1 in mice results in embryonic death at E14.5 with severe defects in cardiac outflow development, endocardial cushion morphogenesis, and myocyte proliferation and maturation (6). The FoxP1 gene is located on chromosome 3p14.1 and loss of heterozygosity of this region in multiple cancer types suggests a role for FoxP1 as a tumor suppressor (7). Alternatively, FoxP1 may also act as an oncogene as it is highly expressed in a variety of B cell malignancies and is frequently involved in chromosome translocation (8,9).
