Gene Information

human ... LHX3(8022)

General description

LHX3 is a LIM homeodomain protein that functions as a transcription factor and is required for the development of pituitary gland. It also determines the cell types that secrete anterior pituitary hormones. Mutations in LHX3 have been linked to combined pituitary hormone deficiency in humans.
Rabbit Anti-LHX3 (AB1) antibody recognizes canine, human, zebrafish, bovine, chicken, pig, and mouse LHX3.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the middle region of human LHX3

Application

Rabbit Anti-LHX3 (AB1) antibody can be used for western blot applications at a concentration of 0.5μg/ml.

Biochem/physiol Actions

LHX3 is a member a large protein family which carry the LIM domain, a unique cysteine-rich zinc-binding domain. The encoded protein is a transcription factor that is required for pituitary development and motor neuron specification. Mutations in this gene have been associated with a syndrome of combined pituitary hormone deficiency and rigid cervical spine. Two transcripts variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene.

Sequence

Synthetic peptide located within the following region: NMKRSRGGSKSDKDSVQEGQDSDAEVSFPDEPSLAEMGPANGLYGSLGEP

Physical form

Purified antibody supplied in 1x PBS buffer with 0.09% (w/v) sodium azide and 2% sucrose.

The Lhx3 LIM homeodomain transcription factor is critical for pituitary gland formation and specification of the anterior pituitary hormone-secreting cell types. Two mutations in LHX3, a missense mutation changing a tyrosine to a cysteine and an intragenic deletion that results

Nature genetics, 25(2), 182-186 (2000-06-03)
Combined pituitary hormone deficiency (CPHD) has been linked with rare abnormalities in genes encoding transcription factors necessary for pituitary development. We have isolated LHX3, a gene involved in a new syndrome, using a candidate-gene approach developed on the basis of
