Scientific Data Images for Human CRX Antibody

Detection of Human CRX antibody by Western Blot.

Detection of Human CRX by Western Blot.

Western blot shows lysates of Y-79 human retinoblastoma cell line. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Sheep Anti-Human CRX Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF7085) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF016). A specific band was detected for CRX at approximately 38 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.
CRX antibody in Y-79 Human Cell Line by Immunocytochemistry (ICC).

CRX in Y‑79 Human Cell Line.

CRX was detected in immersion fixed Y-79 human retinoblastoma cell line using Sheep Anti-Human CRX Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF7085) at 10 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (red, upper panel; Catalog # NL010) and counterstained with DAPI (blue, lower panel). Specific staining was localized to nuclei and cytoplasm. View our protocol for Fluorescent ICC Staining of Cells on Coverslips.

Background: CRX

CRX (Cone Rod homeoboX protein) is a 37-39 kDa member of the Otx family of paired-like homeodomain containing proteins. It is expressed in pinealocytes, cones, rods and rod bipolar cells, and promotes the transcription of photoreceptor cell proteins such as rhodopsin, IRBP and beta-phosphodiesterase. Although CRX may act alone, it typically binds noncovalently to both QRX and NRL, forming a transcriptional complex. Human CRX is 299 amino acids (aa) in length. It contains one DNA‑binding homeobox domain (aa 39-98). There is one isoform variant that shows a deletion of aa 146-149. Over aa 166-299, human CRX shares 97% aa identity with mouse CRX.
