ab218058 staining Pax2 in HepG2 cells. The cells were fixed with 4% formaldehyde (10 min), permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 5 minutes and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated overnight at +4°C with ab218058 at 1/100 dilution (shown in red) and ab195887, Mouse monoclonal to alpha Tubulin (Alexa Fluor® 488), at 1/250 dilution (shown in green). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue).

Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8).

Supplementary information

The Pax2 protein also known as Paired Box 2 is a transcription factor with a mass of approximately 47 kDa. It plays an important role in controlling gene expression during embryonic development. Researchers have identified Pax2 expression in the developing central nervous system kidneys and eyes. Pax2 contains a paired domain which enables it to bind to specific DNA sequences and regulate the transcription of target genes by recruiting other proteins and co-factors to chromatin.
Biological function summary

This transcription factor acts as a mediator in developmental processes influencing both organogenesis and tissue differentiation. Pax2 forms part of a transcriptional complex with other Pax family members such as Pax5 and Pax8 which together ensure the proper development of organs like the kidneys and eyes. These interactions allow Pax2 to control cell proliferation differentiation and survival in developing tissues thereby facilitating normal organ formation.

Pathways

Pax2 functions within the Wnt/β-catenin and Sonic Hedgehog signaling pathways. These pathways are important for the regulation of cell fate and patterning during embryogenesis. Pax2 works closely with proteins such as Wnt1 and Gli1 to transduce signals that instruct the development of specific tissues. Pax2's involvement in these pathways demonstrates its critical role in responding to environmental cues that dictate developmental progression.

Pax2 disruption is associated with renal coloboma syndrome and optic nerve coloboma. Mutations in the Pax2 gene can lead to defective kidney development and neurological defects in eye formation due to impaired gene regulation. Pax2 interacts with proteins like WT1 in kidney development where imbalances may contribute to disease phenotypes. Understanding Pax2's connection to these disorders could help in developing targeted therapeutic strategies.
