PDX1, also known as pancreas/duodenum homeobox protein 1, serves as a master transcription factor essential for pancreatic development and beta cell function. This homeodomain protein regulates insulin gene expression and plays a critical role in glucose homeostasis, making it a key target for researchers investigating diabetes, pancreatic differentiation, and metabolic disorders. Mutations in PDX1 are associated with maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 4 (MODY4), underscoring its clinical significance in understanding glucose regulation pathways.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody, clone 4A3, offers the reproducibility and consistency that demanding research applications require. Generated against a synthesized peptide from human PDX1 protein and produced using recombinant technology in rabbit host, this antibody provides sequence-defined specificity with minimal lot-to-lot variation, ensuring your experimental results remain comparable across studies.
Validation across multiple platforms demonstrates this antibody's versatility in your workflow. Western blot analysis in COLO205 whole cell lysate detects a band at approximately 42 kDa, which differs from the predicted 31 kDa molecular weight. This size shift is commonly attributed to post-translational modifications, particularly glycosylation and phosphorylation events known to occur on PDX1. Immunohistochemistry validation in paraffin-embedded human pancreatic tissue and gastric cancer samples confirms reliable tissue staining at 1:100 dilution. Flow cytometry analysis using HeLa cells further demonstrates intracellular detection capability with clear signal separation from isotype controls.
Whether you are investigating signal transduction pathways, characterizing pancreatic cell populations, or exploring PDX1 expression in disease contexts, this affinity-purified antibody delivers the performance and consistency needed for publication-quality results.
