Specificity
This antibody will detect Prox-1 in the nucleus of lymphatic endothelial cells by immunostaining, and human Prox 1 by western blot.
Purity/Purification
Protein A chromatography
Form/Format
IgG fraction supplied lyophilized from PBS, pH 7.4 with no preservative. 
Sequence Length
737
Applicable Applications for anti-PROX1 antibody
Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunohistochemistry (IHC) Paraffin, Western Blot (WB)
Application Notes
WB: 1-5ug/ml. For other applications, optimal conditions should be determined by end-user
Biological Significance
Prox-1 is a homeobox gene and acts as a master switch for lymphatic endothelial phenotype. Expression of Prox-1 in blood endothelial cells induces expression of other lymphatic marker genes. Together with Podoplanin, Prox-1 can be used to reliably distinguish lympathic vessels from blood vessels. Prox-1 is expressed in CNS, eye, pancreas, liver and heart, and it is one of the most specific and reliable markers for lymphatic endothelial cells.
Cross-Reactivity
Equal reactivity with Human, Mouse, and Rat
Immunogen
Prox 1 antibody was raised in rabbit using recombinant human C-terminal part of Prox-1 (homeo domain and prospero domain) as the immunogen
Preparation and Storage
Store lyophilized antibody at -20 degree C. Following reconstitution store at 4 degree C in the short-term. For longer term storage aliquot and store at -20 degree C or -70 degree C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

NCBI Description

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the homeobox transcription factor family. Members of this family contain a homeobox domain that consists of a 60-amino acid helix-turn-helix structure that binds DNA and RNA. The protein encoded by this gene is conserved across vertebrates and may play an essential role during development. Altered levels of this protein have been reported in cancers of different organs, such as colon, brain, blood, breast, pancreas, liver and esophagus. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2012]

Uniprot Description

Product Notes

The PROX1 prox1 (Catalog #AAA832442) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's Prox 1 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunohistochemistry (IHC) Paraffin, Western Blot (WB). WB: 1-5ug/ml. For other applications, optimal conditions should be determined by end-user. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the PROX1 prox1 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. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Prox 1, Polyclonal Antibody" 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.
