Homology: Predicted species reactivity based on immunogen sequence: Mouse: (100%) , Bovine: (100%)
Immunogen: EMX2 antibody was raised against an 18 amino acid synthetic peptide near the center of human EMX2.
The immunogen is located within amino acids 60 - 110 of EMX2.
Research Area: Stem Cell
Tested Application: E, WB, IHC-P, IF
Application: EMX2 antibody can be used for detection of EMX2 by Western blot at 1 - 2 μg/mL. Antibody can also be used for immunohistochemistry starting at 2.5 μg/mL. For immunofluorescence start at 20 μg/mL.
Antibody validated: Western Blot in human samples; Immunohistochemistry in human samples and Immunofluorescence in human samples. All other applications and species not yet tested.
Specificiy: At least two isoforms of EMX2 are known to exist; this antibody will detect both isoforms. EMX2 antibody is predicted to not cross-react with EMX1

BACKGROUND: EMX2 Antibody: EMX2, like its closely related homolog EMX1, is a homeobox transcription factor involved in specifying cell fates in the developing central nervous system and participates in the development of olfactory neurons. EMX2 is expressed in the dorsal telencephalon during development in a low rostral-lateral to high caudal-medial gradient and is proposed to pattern the neocortex into defined functional areas. It is also expressed in embryonic and adult olfactory neuroepithelia where it complexes with eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) and possibly regulates mRNA transport or translation. In the developing urogenital system, it is expressed in epithelial tissues and is negatively regulated by HOXA10.
