Antibody type
Monoclonal antibodies
Protein name
Homeobox protein CDX-2 (CDX-3) (Caudal-type homeobox protein 2)
Immunogen
Synthesized peptide derived from human CDX-2
Specificity
This antibody detects endogenous levels of human CDX-2. Heat-induced epitope retrieval (HIER) TRIS-EDTA of pH8.0 was highly recommended as antigen repair method in paraffin section

Mouse, Monoclonal/IgG1, Kappa
Dilution rate
IHC-p 1:20-100. IF 1:50-200
Purification process
The antibody was affinity-purified from mouse ascites by affinity-chromatography using specific immunogen.
Background
This gene is a member of the caudal-related homeobox transcription factor gene family. The encoded protein is a major regulator of intestine-specific genes involved in cell growth an differentiation. This protein also plays a role in early embryonic development of the intestinal tract. Aberrant expression of this gene is associated with intestinal inflammation and tumorigenesis.

Function
function:Involved in the transciptional regulation of multiple genes expressed in the intestinal epithelium. Important in broad range of functions from early differentiation to maintenance of the intestinal epithelial lining of both the small and large intestine.,PTM:Phosphorylation of Ser-60 mediates the transactivation capacity.,similarity:Belongs to the Caudal homeobox family.,similarity:Contains 1 homeobox DNA-binding domain.,
