Gene Information

General description

Dux4 is a homeodomain protein with a similar protein sequence to Pax3 and Pax7. Defects in Dux4 may be the cause of facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD). FSHD is characterized by weakness of the muscles of the face, upper-arm and shoulder girdle. Ectopic expression of Dux4 in skeletal muscle activates the expression of stem cell and germline genes, and, when overexpressed in somatic cells, Dux4 can ultimately lead to cell death.

Immunogen

Epitope: domain of: C-Terminal region
recombinant protein corresponding to the domain of: C-Terminal region of Human Dux4.

Application

Detect Dux4 using this mouse monoclonal antibody, Anti-Dux4 Antibody, clone 9A12 validated for use in western blotting, ICC, Electrophoretic Mobility Shift Assay & IP.

Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is a dominant disease linked to contractions of the D4Z4 repeat array in 4q35. We have previously identified a double homeobox gene (DUX4) within each D4Z4 unit that encodes a transcription factor expressed in FSHD but

FacioScapuloHumeral muscular Dystrophy (FSHD) is one of the most prevalent hereditary myopathies and is generally characterized by progressive muscle atrophy affecting the face, scapular fixators; upper arms and distal lower legs. The FSHD locus maps to a macrosatellite D4Z4 repeat

Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) involves sporadic expression of DUX4, which inhibits myogenesis and is pro-apoptotic. To identify target genes, we over-expressed DUX4 in myoblasts and found that the receptor tyrosine kinase Ret was significantly up-regulated, suggesting a role in FSHD.

Skeletal muscle, 8(1), 2-2 (2018-01-14)
Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is associated with DNA hypomethylation at the 4q35 D4Z4 repeat array. Both the causal gene DUX4 and its homolog DUX4c are induced. DUX4c is immunodetected in every myonucleus of proliferative cells, while DUX4 is present in
