Target data

See full target information ARX

Function

Transcription factor (PubMed:22194193, PubMed:31691806). Binds to specific sequence motif 5'-TAATTA-3' in regulatory elements of target genes, such as histone demethylase KDM5C (PubMed:22194193, PubMed:31691806). Positively modulates transcription of KDM5C (PubMed:31691806). Activates expression of KDM5C synergistically with histone lysine demethylase PHF8 and perhaps in competition with transcription regulator ZNF711; synergy may be related to enrichment of histone H3K4me3 in regulatory elements (PubMed:31691806). Required for normal brain development (PubMed:11889467, PubMed:12379852, PubMed:14722918). Plays a role in neuronal proliferation, interneuronal migration and differentiation in the embryonic forebrain (By similarity). May also be involved in axonal guidance in the floor plate (By similarity).

Notes

Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.

This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:

- High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
- Improved sensitivity and specificity
- Long-term security of supply
- Animal-free batch production

For more information, read more on recombinant antibodies.

Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. The carrier-free buffer and high concentration allow for increased conjugation efficiency.

This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with 1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

This product is compatible with the Maxpar^® Antibody Labeling Kit from Fluidigm, without the need for antibody preparation. Maxpar^® is a trademark of Fluidigm Canada Inc.

Activity summary

The Arx protein also known as Aristaless related homeobox is a transcription factor encoded by the ARX gene. Its molecular mass is approximately 55 kDa. Arx is mainly expressed in the brain and pancreas where it plays roles in development. The protein contains a homeobox domain which allows it to bind DNA and regulate transcription. In neurons Arx modulates the development and differentiation affecting various neuronal populations.

Biological function summary

Arx influences the development of the central nervous system and pancreatic functions. Arx operates as part of a regulatory network that includes other transcription factors. It coordinates with these factors to manage the expression of genes required for neuronal subtype specification. In the pancreas Arx impacts the fate determination of endocrine cells particularly influencing alpha-cell development over beta-cell development.

Pathways

Arx is an important player in both the neuronal differentiation and endocrine development pathways. It interacts with proteins like Pax4 and Nkx2.2 within these pathways ensuring proper cell-type specification and differentiation. These pathways ensure the formation of diverse neuronal subclasses and appropriate distribution of endocrine cells in the pancreas.

Associated diseases and disorders

Arx is associated with epilepsy and intellectual disability. Mutations in the ARX gene can lead to X-linked intellectual disability and contribute to the development of epilepsy. In both conditions Arx's interaction with proteins such as DCX (Doublecortin) and LIS1 is significant as these proteins are implicated in neuronal migration and cortical development. Hence alterations in Arx function can disrupt these processes leading to neurological disorders.
