| WB, E |
---|---|
Primary Accession | Q15475 |
Reactivity | Human, Mouse |
Host | Rabbit |
Clonality | polyclonal |
Isotype | Rabbit IgG |
Calculated MW | 32210 Da |
Gene ID | 6495 |
---|---|
Other Names | Homeobox protein SIX1, Sine oculis homeobox homolog 1, SIX1 |
Target/Specificity | This SIX1 antibody is generated from a rabbit immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 69-102 amino acids from the Central region of human SIX1. |
Dilution | WB~~1:2000 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | SIX1 Antibody (Center) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | SIX1 |

Function | Transcription factor that is involved in the regulation of cell proliferation, apoptosis and embryonic development (By similarity). Plays an important role in the development of several organs, including kidney, muscle and inner ear (By similarity). Depending on context, functions as a transcriptional repressor or activator (By similarity). Lacks an activation domain, and requires interaction with EYA family members for transcription activation (PubMed:15141091). Mediates nuclear translocation of EYA1 and EYA2 (PubMed:19497856). Binds the 5'-TCA[AG][AG]TTNC-3' motif present in the MEF3 element in the MYOG promoter and CIDEA enhancer (PubMed:15141091, PubMed:19497856, PubMed:23435380, PubMed:27923061). Regulates the expression of numerous genes, including MYC, CCND1 and EZR (By similarity). Acts as an activator of the IGFBP5 promoter, probably coactivated by EYA2 (By similarity). Repression of precursor cell proliferation in myoblasts is switched to activation through recruitment of EYA3 to the SIX1-DACH1 complex (By similarity). During myogenesis, seems to act together with EYA2 and DACH2 (By similarity). Regulates the expression of CCNA1 (PubMed:15123840). Promotes brown adipocyte differentiation (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | Nucleus. Cytoplasm |
Tissue Location | Specifically expressed in skeletal muscle. |
