Western Blot (WB)

(Western blot analysis of PITX1 antibody (Center) in NCI-H460 cell line lysates (35ug/lane). PITX1 (arrow) was detected using the purified Pab.)

Immunohistochemistry (IHC)

(PITX1 Antibody (Center) (RB18913) IHC analysis in formalin fixed and paraffin embedded human Lung carcinoma followed by peroxidase conjugation of the secondary antibody and DAB staining. This data demonstrates the use of the PITX1 Antibody (Center) for immunohistochemistry. Clinical relevance has not been evaluated.)

Flow Cytometry (FC/FACS)

(PITX1 Antibody (Center) flow cytometric analysis of NCI-H460 cells (bottom histogram) compared to a negative control cell (top histogram).FITC-conjugated goat-anti-rabbit secondary antibodies were used for the analysis.)

Western Blot (WB)

(Western blot analysis of PITX1 (arrow) using rabbit polyclonal PITX1 Antibody (Center). 293 cell lysates (2 ug/lane) either nontransfected (Lane 1) or transiently transfected (Lane 2) with the PITX1 gene.)

NCBI Description

This gene encodes a member of the RIEG/PITX homeobox family, which is in the bicoid class of homeodomain proteins. Members of this family are involved in organ development and left-right asymmetry. This protein acts as a transcriptional regulator involved in basal and hormone-regulated activity of prolactin. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uniprot Description

PITX1: May play a role in the development of anterior structures, and in particular, the brain and facies and in specifying the identity or structure of hindlimb. Defects in PITX1 are a cause of congenital clubfoot (CCF); also known as talipes equinovarus (TEV). Clubfoot is a congenital limb deformity defined as fixation of the foot in cavus, adductus, varus, and equinus (i.e. inclined inwards, axially rotated outwards, and pointing downwards) with concomitant soft tissue abnormalities. Clubfoot may occur in isolation or as part of a syndrome. Clubfoot appears to be a multifactorial trait. Belongs to the paired homeobox family. Bicoid subfamily.
