Scientific Data Images for Human Hexim 1 Antibody

Detection of Human Hexim 1 antibody by Western Blot.

Detection of Human Hexim 1 by Western Blot.

Western blot shows lysates of K562 human chronic myelogenous leukemia cell line, Jurkat human acute T cell leukemia cell line, and Hep3B human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Sheep Anti-Human Hexim 1 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF8106) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF016). A specific band was detected for Hexim 1 at approximately 60 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.
Hexim 1 antibody in Human Liver by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P).

Hexim 1 in Human Liver.

Hexim 1 was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human liver using Sheep Anti-Human Hexim 1 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF8106) at 1 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Sheep HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS019) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to nuclei.

Background: Hexim 1

Hexim 1, also known as CLP1, EDG1, HIS1, and MAQ1, is an approximately 60 kDa transcriptional regulator that binds double stranded RNA and inhibits RNA polymerase II. Hexim 1 plays an important role in many processes including satellite muscle cell regeneration, cardiovascular development, and HIV-1 replication. It can form homodimers and heterodimers with Hexim 2, and its activity is regulated by phosphoylation at Ser158. Hexim 1 inhibits the kinase activity of the elongation factor P-TEFb. This inhibition can be relieved by Hexim 1 interaction with Nucleophosphmin or by cellular exposure to hexamtehylene bisacetamide. Hexim 1 inhibits the transactivation function of the glucocorticoid, estrogen, and androgen receptors. It can inhibit the cellular response to hypoxia and promote cancer progression or, alternatively, can inhibit VEGF mediated angiogenesis and suppress metastasis. Within aa 213-359, human Hexim 1 shares 95% and 94% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat Hexim 1, respectively.
