Description_x000D_ General description_x000D_ Forkhead box C1 (FOXC1) is encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 6p25.3. The gene is widely expressed in mesenchyme and codes for a member of the FOX family, which is characterized by a distinct DNA-binding forkhead domain._x000D_ Immunogen_x000D_ forkhead box C1 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)_x000D_ Application_x000D_ Anti-FOXC1 antibody produced in rabbit has been used in immunoprecipitation assay._x000D_ Physical form_x000D_ Solution in phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.2, containing 40% glycerol and 0.02% sodium azide._x000D_ Disclaimer_x000D_ Unless otherwise stated in our catalog or other company documentation accompanying the product(s), our products are intended for research use only and are not to be used for any other purpose, which includes but is not limited to, unauthorized commercial uses, in vitro diagnostic uses, ex vivo or in vivo therapeutic uses or any type of consumption or application to humans or animals._x000D_ Legal Information_x000D_ Prestige Antibodies is a registered trademark of Sigma-Aldrich Co. LLC_x000D_ Biochem/physiol Actions_x000D_ Forkhead box C1 (FOXC1) is involved in various developmental processes such as somatic, cardiovascular, kidney, eye, skull and cortical development. Mutation in the gene leads to Dandy-Walker malformation (DWM), Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome (ARS), congenital glaucoma and cerebral small-vessel disease (CSVD). Increased expression of FOXC1 improves invasion capacity of basal-like breast cancer (BLBC) in vitro and stimulates cancer development and metastasis in vivo._x000D_ Features and Benefits_x000D_ Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section._x000D_ Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:_x000D_ • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues._x000D_ • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments._x000D_ • Validated for multiple commonly used applications such as IHC (Immunohistochemistry), IF (Immunofluorescence), and WB (Western Blot)_x000D_ Linkage_x000D_ Corresponding Antigen APREST81794.
