Application

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.

The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions

H2.0-like homeobox protein is a protein encoded by the HLX gene in humans. It is referred as HB24 and HLX1. It is expressed in proliferating and migrating human trophoblast cells. Its expression is found to decreased significantly in human FGR. It regulates human trophoblast-derived cell migration, and that hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), by receptor c-met, acts through this gene to control cell migration. Polymorphisms in the this gene increase the risk for childhood asthma. It is primarily expressed in cytotrophoblast cell types in the human placenta and is involved in cytotrophoblast proliferation and down-regulation of cell differentiation.

Features and Benefits

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.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Homeobox genes are a large family of transcription factors. Of these, the HLX homeobox gene (previously known as HLX1 and HB24) is important for normal placentation. We have previously shown that HLX mRNA expression is significantly reduced in fetal growth-restricted

Homeobox gene transcription factors play a critical role in normal placental development and are expressed in specialized trophoblast cells. Abnormal trophoblast function is associated with clinically significant pregnancy disorders, including fetal growth restriction (FGR). Our previous studies demonstrated that homeobox
