PDX1 Antibodies
AND PDX1 ELISA kits, PDX1 Proteins
Many biological assays use antibodies to detect PDX1, such as Western Blot (WB), ELISA, Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry (IHC). These antibodies can be polyclonal or monoclonal, and react with PDX1 in Human, Mouse, Rat, and many other animal samples. Boster Bio use mainly mouse and rabbit to develop PDX1 antibodies...

PDX1 Overview
Facts about Pancreas/duodenum homeobox protein 1.
Pancreas/duodenum homeobox protein 1 (PDX1)
Activates insulin, somatostatin, glucokinase, islet amyloid polypeptide and glucose transporter type 2 gene transcription. Especially involved in glucose-dependent regulation of insulin gene transcription.
Included in a PDX1:PBX1b:MEIS2b complex in pancreatic acinar cells is involved in the transcriptional activation of the ELA1 enhancer; the complex binds to the enhancer B element and cooperates with the transcription factor 1 complex (PTF1) bound to the enhancer A element. Binds preferentially the DNA motif 5'-[CT]TAAT[TG]-3'.
