Human NK3 Homeobox Protein 1 (NKX3-1) ELISA Kit | NKX3-1 elisa kit
Human NK3 Homeobox Protein 1 (NKX3-1) ELISA Kit
No significant cross-reactivity or interference between NK3 Homeobox Protein 1 (NKX3-1) and analogues was observed.
To minimize extra influence on the performance, operation procedures and lab conditions, especially room temperature, air humidity, incubator temperature should be strictly controlled. It is also strongly suggested that the whole assay is performed by the same operator from the beginning to the end.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a homeobox-containing transcription factor. This transcription factor functions as a negative regulator of epithelial cell growth in prostate tissue. Aberrant expression of this gene is associated with prostate tumor progression. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants of this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2012]
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 Human NKX3-1 nkx3-1 (Catalog #AAA2088195) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA2088195 ELISA Kit recognizes Human NKX3-1. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "NK3 Homeobox Protein 1 (NKX3-1), ELISA Kit" 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
