Target/Specificity | This PRRX1 antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 213-242 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human PRRX1. |
Dilution | WB~~1:1000 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |

Function | Master transcription factor of stromal fibroblasts for myofibroblastic lineage progression. Orchestrates the functional drift of fibroblasts into myofibroblastic phenotype via TGF-beta signaling by remodeling a super-enhancer landscape. Through this function, plays an essential role in wound healing process (PubMed:35589735). Acts as a transcriptional regulator of muscle creatine kinase (MCK) and so has a role in the establishment of diverse mesodermal muscle types. The protein binds to an A/T-rich element in the muscle creatine enhancer (By similarity). May play a role in homeostasis and regeneration of bone, white adipose tissue and derm (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | Nucleus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P63013}. |
Tissue Location | [Isoform 1]: Widely expressed in embryonic and adult tissues, with highest levels in skeletal muscle. Isoform 1 is either expressed at similar or higher levels compared to isoform 2 in all embryonic tissues but skeletal muscle and heart. In adult tissues, expressed at lower levels compared to isoform 2 |

Background
The DNA-associated protein encoded by this gene is a member of the paired family of homeobox proteins localized to the nucleus. The protein functions as a transcription co-activator, enhancing the DNA-binding activity of serum response factor, a protein required for the induction of genes by growth and differentiation factors. The protein regulates muscle creatine kinase, indicating a role in the establishment of diverse mesodermal muscle types. Alternative splicing yields two isoforms that differ in abundance and expression patterns. [provided by RefSeq].
