Pbx 1a Antibody (710.2) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 kappa light chain antibody that detects Pbx 1a protein of mouse, rat, and human origin by western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), and immunohistochemistry. Anti-Pbx 1a antibody (710.2) is available as non-conjugated format. Pbx 1a is a crucial member of the TALE (three amino acid loop extension) family of homeodomain-containing proteins, which play significant roles in regulating gene expression during development and differentiation. Pbx 1a forms protein complexes that interact with other transcription factors, such as E2A, particularly important in human pre-B cell acute leukemias where chromosomal rearrangement can lead to fusion gene creation. This interaction regulates hematopoiesis and B cell development. Pbx 1a shows ubiquitous expression across various tissues, underscoring essential functions in both fetal and adult stages. Alternative splicing forms of Pbx 1 and Pbx 3, which differ in carboxy-termini, add complexity to regulatory roles, making Pbx 1a a significant target for research in developmental biology and cancer studies.
