Scientific Data Images for Human Pax2 Antibody

Detection of Mouse Pax2 by Western Blot.

Western blot shows lysates of mouse fetal kidney. PVDF Membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Human Pax2 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF3364) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (HAF017). A specific band was detected for Pax2 at approximately 47 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Western Blot Buffer Group 1.
Pax2 antibody in BG01V Human Embyonic Stem Cells by Immunocytochemistry (ICC).

Pax2 in BG01V Human Embyonic Stem Cells.

Pax2 was detected in immersion fixed BG01V human embryonic stem cells differentiated into the early otic lineage using Goat Anti-Human Pax2 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF3364) at 10 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (red; NL001) and counterstained with DAPI (blue). Specific staining was localized to nuclei.

Pax2 in Human Kidney.

Pax2 was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human kidney using Goat Anti-Human Pax2 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF3364) at 1 µg/mL for 1 hour at room temperature followed by incubation with the Anti-Goat IgG VisUCyte™ HRP Polymer Antibody (VC004). Before incubation with the primary antibody, tissue was subjected to heat-induced epitope retrieval using Antigen Retrieval Reagent-Basic (CTS013). Tissue was stained using DAB (brown) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to cell nuclei in convoluted tubules. Staining was performed using our protocol for IHC Staining with VisUCyte HRP Polymer Detection Reagents.

Background: Pax2

Pax2 is a 40-45 kDa protein belonging to the small but developmentally important family of transcription regulators. Human Pax2 is a 416 amino acid (aa) residue protein with an N-terminal 128 aa DNA-binding paired box domain, a centrally-located octapeptide motif and a C-terminal truncated homeodomain. Based on the presence of the structural domains, Pax2 belongs to subgroup 2 in the Pax family. Pax2 is important for stem cell survival and lineage commitment during development. Pax2 is also expressed in various carcinomas where it seems to mediate anti-apoptotic functions. At least five splice isoforms of human Pax2 have been described within the region used as immunogen (shared by all isoforms). Human and mouse Pax2 share 98% aa sequence identity.
