Target
-
Function
Transcription repression factor which plays an important role in the establishment of the regional subdivision of the developing brain and in the development of the telencephalon. -
Tissue specificity
Expression is restricted to the neurons of the developing telencephalon. -
Involvement in disease
Defects in FOXG1 are the cause of congenital variant of Rett syndrome (RTTCV) [MIM:613454]. RTTCV is a severe neurodevelopmental disorder with features of classic Rett syndrome but earlier onset in the first months of life. Clinical features include progressive microcephaly, hypotonia, irresponsiveness and irritability in the neonatal period, mental retardation, psychomotor regression and stereotypical movements. -

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-FOXG1 antibody [EPR18987] - BSA and Azide free (ab227888)
Immunofluorescent analysis of 4% paraformaldehyde fixed, 0.1% Triton X-100 permeabilized C6 (rat glial tumor cell line) cells labeling FOXG1 with ab196868 at 1/100 dilution, followed by Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150077) secondary antibody at 1/1000 dilution (green). Nuclear staining on C6 cell line.
The nuclear counter stain is DAPI (blue). Tubulin is detected with Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Microtubule Marker (Alexa Fluor® 594) (ab195889) (red) at 1/200 dilution.
Secondary antibody only control: Used PBS instead of primary antibody, secondary antibody is Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150077) secondary antibody at 1/1000 dilution.
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab196868).
