Properties

For facs or microscopy Alexa 1 conjugate.Alexa Fluor 488 has the same range to that of fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), yet the Anti-OTP has a very high photo stability. As a result of this photo stability, it has turned into an antibody for fluorescent microscopy and FACS FLOW cytometry. It is distinguished in the FL1 of a FACS-Calibur or FACScan. Also Alexa Fluor 488 is pH stable.If you buy Antibodies supplied by Bioss Primary Conjugated Antibodies. ALEXA FLUOR they should be stored frozen at - 24°C for long term storage and for short term at + 5°C.

Background of the antigen

Homeodomain (HD) genes are helix-turn-helix transcription factors that play key roles in the specification of cell fates. OTP (orthopedia homeobox) is a 325 amino acid nuclear protein belonging to the paired homeobox family and Bicoid subfamily. OTP is expressed in neurons, which give rise to the paraventricular (PVN), supraoptic (SON), anterior periventricular (aPV) and arcuate (ARN) nuclei. Containing a homeobox DNA-binding domain and a OAR domain, OTP is suggested to be involved in the differentiation of hypothalamic neuroendocrine cells. At early embryonic stages in mice, the expression of SIM2 is downregulated in the absence of OTP, indicating a potential role for OTP as an upstream regulator of SIM2. OTP is highly conserved in evolution and is encoded by a gene located on human chromosome 5, which contains 181 million base pairs and comprises nearly 6% of the human genome.
