-20°CPDX1, also known as Pancreas/duodenum homeobox protein 1, is a nuclear protein belonging to the Antp homeobox family and IPF1/XlHbox-8 subfamily with a homeobox DNA-binding domain. It activates insulin, somatostatin, glucokinase, islet amyloid polypeptide and glucose transporter type 2 gene transcription and is particularly involved in glucose-dependent regulation of insulin gene transcription. During development, PDX1 specifies the early pancreatic epithelium, permitting its proliferation, branching and subsequent differentiation. Expression is common in duodenum and pancreas (Langerhans islet beta cells and small subsets of endocrine non-beta-cells, at low levels in acinar cells). Defects in PDX1 are associated with pancreatic agenesis, maturity onset diabetes noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), also known as diabetes mellitus type II, and maturity onset diabetes of the young type 4 (MODY4).

Storage and Stability:
Store product at 4°C if to be used immediately within two weeks. For long-term storage, aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing and store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable at -20°C for 12 months after receipt. Dilute required amount only prior to immediate use. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. Caution: FITC conjugates are sensitive to light. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
Note: Applications are based on unconjugated antibody.
