ICC/IF image of ab47278 stained HeLa cells. The cells were 4% PFA fixed (10 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab47278, 1μg/ml) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red) at a 1/200 dilution for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43μM.

Supplementary information

FOXO4 also known as AFX is part of the FoxO family of transcription factors and weighs about 74 kDa. It operates as an important player in transcriptional regulation by binding to specific DNA sequences. This protein modulates gene expression linked to apoptosis cell cycle regulation and oxidative stress resistance. FOXO4 commonly expresses in tissues like the liver skeletal muscle and adipose tissue where it carries out critical cellular functions.
Biological function summary

This protein influences processes essential for cell survival and metabolism. FOXO4 forms part of the larger forkhead box family of transcription factors. Inside cells it regulates genes involved in mechanisms such as gluconeogenesis and immune responses. It can also interact with other proteins like 14-3-3 which helps control its nuclear-cytoplasmic shuttling impacting its activity.

Pathways

FOXO4 becomes an integral part of the insulin signaling and oxidative stress response pathways. In the insulin pathway FOXO4 activity suppresses in response to insulin signals that trigger the PI3K/Akt pathway. Akt phosphorylates FOXO4 disallowing it from entering the nucleus. FOXO4 relates closely with FOXO1 and FOXO3 within these pathways where their coordinated activities help maintain energy homeostasis and cellular stress responses.

FOXO4 involvement becomes apparent in conditions such as diabetes and cancer. In diabetes disrupted insulin signaling impacts FOXO4 activity impairing glucose metabolism. In cancer FOXO4's role in cell cycle arrest and apoptosis associates it with tumor suppression and progression. Its interaction with proteins like p53 influences cellular responses to oncogenic stress marking FOXO4 as a significant factor in oncological research.

Target data

Transcription factor involved in the regulation of the insulin signaling pathway. Binds to insulin-response elements (IREs) and can activate transcription of IGFBP1. Down-regulates expression of HIF1A and suppresses hypoxia-induced transcriptional activation of HIF1A-modulated genes. Also involved in negative regulation of the cell cycle. Involved in increased proteasome activity in embryonic stem cells (ESCs) by activating expression of PSMD11 in ESCs, leading to enhanced assembly of the 26S proteasome, followed by higher proteasome activity.
