Nkx3-1 blocking peptide
Nkx3-1 Peptide - middle region
Target Description: Nkx3-1 is a transcription factor, which binds preferentially the consensus sequence 5'-TAAGT[AG]-3' and can behave as a transcriptional repressor. It plays an important role in normal prostate development, regulating proliferation of glandular epithelium and in the formation of ducts in prostate. Nkx3-1 acts as a tumor suppressor controlling prostate carcinogenesis, as shown by the ability to suppress growth and tumorigenicity of prostate carcinoma cells and plays a role in the formation of minor salivary glands (particularly palatine and lingual glands). It is essential for appropriate differentiation and secretory function of the bulbourethral gland.

Uniprot Description
NKX3-1: Transcription factor, which binds preferentially the consensus sequence 5'-TAAGT[AG]-3' and can behave as a transcriptional repressor. Play an important role in normal prostate development, regulating proliferation of glandular epithelium and in the formation of ducts in prostate. Act as a tumor suppressor controlling prostate carcinogenesis, as shown by the ability to inhibit proliferation and invasion activities of PC-3 prostate cancer cells. Interacts with serum response factor (SRF). Interacts with SPDEF. Interacts with WDR77. Interacts with TOPORS which polyubiquitinates NKX3-1 and induces its proteasomal degradation. By androgens and, in the LNCAP cell line, by estrogens. Androgenic control may be lost in prostate cancer cells during tumor progression from an androgen-dependent to an androgen- independent phase. Highly expressed in the prostate and, at a lower level, in the testis. Belongs to the NK-3 homeobox family. 5 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The Nkx3-1 nkx3-1 (Catalog #AAA3228432) is a Blocking Peptide and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Nkx3-1 Peptide - middle region reacts with Mouse, Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Nkx3-1 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the Nkx3-1 nkx3-1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. The amino acid sequence is listed below: TPTEPESDAH FETYLLDCEH NPGDLASAPQ VTKQPQKRSR AAFSHTQVIE. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Nkx3-1, Blocking Peptide" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
