FOXO1a Rabbit anti-Human, Polyclonal, Bethyl Laboratories

Description

• The recommended shelf life for this product is 1 year from date of receipt
• Based on 100% sequence identity, this antibody is predicted to react with Mouse, Rat, Bovine and Pig FOXO1 (FKHR, ForKHead Box 01) is a member in a subfamily of the forkhead homeotic gene family of transcription factors
• Recent experiments have shown that FOXO1 can act as either a coactivator or a corepressor of nuclear receptor activity that is mediated through the LXXLL motif found in the carboxyl terminal region of the FKHR protein
• Association of FOXO1 with PAX3 has been implicated in alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma
• Recent studies link the anti-tumor activity of FOXO1, the process of autophagy and myogenic growth and differentiation
• FOXO1 is the main target of insulin signaling that regulated the metabolic homeostasis in response to oxidative stress
• FOXO1 binds to the insulin response element (IRE) with consensus sequence 5′-TT[G/A]TTTTG-3′ and the related Daf-16 family binding element (DBE) with consensus sequence 5′- TT[G/A]TTTAC-3′
• FOXO1 is a regulator of redox balance, osteoblast numbers and controls bone mass
• Further, FOXO1 orchestrates the endocrine function of the skeleton in regulating glucose metabolism, and suppresses the transcriptional activity of RUNX2, an upstream activator of osteocalcin/BGLAP
• In hepatocytes, FOXO1 promotes gluconeogenesis by acting together with PPARGC1A to activate the expression of genes such as IGFBP1, G6PC and PPCK1
• FOXO1 is an important regulator of cell death acting downstream of CDK1, PKB/AKT1 and SKT4/MST1.
