Western blot - Anti-Nkx2.5 antibody [EPR20168] - BSA and Azide free (AB228335)
False colour image of Western blot : Anti-Nkx2.5 antibody [EPR20168] staining at 1/1000 dilution, shown in green; Mouse anti-Alpha Tubulin [DM1A] (ab7291) loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in red. In Western blot, ab205263 was shown to bind specifically to Nkx2.5. A band was observed at 40, 30, 25 kDa in wild-type HEK-293 cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in NKX2-5 knockout cell line ab261899 (knockout cell lysate ab261716). Bands at 37 and 35 kDa are non-specific believed to be NKX2-2 and NKX2-6. To generate this image, wild-type and NKX2-5 knockout HEK-293 cell lysates were analysed. First, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 3 % milk in TBS-0.1 % Tween® 20 (TBS-T) before incubation with primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C. Blots were washed four times in TBS-T, incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times then imaged. Secondary antibodies used were Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed (ab216776) at 1/20000 dilution.

Biological function summary
Nkx2.5 functions to direct the development of cardiac myocytes by regulating genes involved in cell specification and tissue formation. Nkx2.5 does not solely operate but interacts with other cardiac-specific transcription factors such as GATA4 and TBX5 collectively forming a transcriptional complex. This cooperative interaction is essential in orchestrating the genetic program necessary for heart morphogenesis and cellular proliferation within the developing myocardium.
Pathways
The protein Nkx2.5 significantly influences cardiogenesis and heart formation pathways. Its activity is necessary in the Wnt signaling pathway important for the initial stages of cardiac cell lineage differentiation. Additionally Nkx2.5 works in tandem with the protein MEF2C to regulate cardiac-specific genes ensuring the proper development and functioning of cardiac tissues. Both pathways highlight important regulatory networks where Nkx2.5 is an important player in heart development.
