Western blot - Anti-PAX6 antibody (AB238527)
Western blot : Anti-PAX6 antibody (ab238527) staining at 1/1000 dilution, shown in green; Mouse anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] (ab8245) loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in magenta. In Western blot, ab238527 was shown to bind specifically to PAX6. A band was observed at 50 kDa in wild-type A549 cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in PAX6 knockout cell line. To generate this image, wild-type and PAX6 knockout A549 cell lysates were analysed. First, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 5 % 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 800CW and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L 680RD at 1/20000 dilution.

Biological function summary
PAX6 acts as an important regulator in eye and neural development functioning alone and as part of larger complexes with other transcription factors. This role ensures the correct formation of ocular structures including the lens retina and cornea and neural elements by activating downstream targets important for cell fate decisions. The PAX6 protein intricately influences the genetic circuits that guide stem cell differentiation highlighting its importance in embryogenesis and organogenesis.
Pathways
PAX6 is pivotal in the Wnt signaling pathway and retinoic acid signaling. Its interaction within the Wnt pathway orchestrates vital developmental processes including those of eye morphogenesis and brain patterning. The protein collaborates with other transcriptional regulators such as SOX2 and EYA1 within these pathways facilitating the complex network of signals necessary for organ development and cellular identity specification.
