• Target description: DNA-binding protein RFX7 (UniProt: Q2KHR2; also known as Regulatory factor X 7, Regulatory factor X domain-containing protein 2) is encoded by the RFX7 (also known as RFXDC2) gene (Gene ID: 64864) in human. RFX7 is a member of RFX family of transcription factors that have seven known members. RFX transcription factors are important for development and are involved in the pathogenesis of ciliopathies. They are highly conserved and share a winged-helix DNA-binding domain (DBD) recognizing X-box motifs. RFX7 is expressed in many different tissues examined, with highest levels observed in the brain. Deletion of RFX7 gene leads to a decrease in natural killer cell maintenance and immunity and knockdown of RFX7 in xenopus embryo is shown to result in defects in ciliogenesis in the neural tube and failure of neural tube closure. RFX7 contains an PXLPXL/I motif (aa 91-96) that mediates interaction with Ankyrin Repeat Family A Member 2 (ANKRA2) and its homolog, Regulatory Factor X Associated Ankyrin Containing Protein (RFXANK). This ZooMAb® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.
