anti-PAX2 antibody
This is a rabbit polyclonal antibody against PAX2. It was validated on Western Blot using a cell lysate as a positive control.
Target Description: PAX2 encodes paired box gene 2, one of many human homologues of the Drosophila melanogaster gene prd. The central feature of this transcription factor gene family is the conserved DNA-binding paired box domain. PAX2 is believed to be a target of transcriptional supression by the tumor supressor gene WT1. Mutations within PAX2 have been shown to result in optic nerve colobomas and renal hypoplasia.

UniProt Comments for PAX2
PAX2: Probable transcription factor that may have a role in kidney cell differentiation. Has a critical role in the development of the urogenital tract, the eyes, and the CNS. Interacts with ELGN3; the interaction targets PAX2 for destruction. Expressed in primitive cells of the kidney, ureter, eye, ear and central nervous system. 4 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.
