Description Mouse monoclonal to DUX4 (ATTO 633). DUX4, or double homeobox4, is a human protein that is a transcriptional activator of paired-like homeodomain transcription factor 1. Clinically it is a facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy candidate gene that appears to have a toxic gain of function (2-4). In FSHD individuals, the expression of the full-length DUX4 transcript is not completely suppressed in skeletal muscle and possibly other differentiated tissues..
About DUX4 and ATTO 633
DUX4 This gene is located within a D4Z4 repeat array in the subtelomeric region of chromosome 4q. The D4Z4 repeat is polymorphic in length; a similar D4Z4 repeat array has been identified on chromosome 10. Each D4Z4 repeat unit has an open reading frame (named DUX4) that encodes two homeoboxes; the repeat-array and ORF is conserved in other mammals. The encoded protein has been reported to function as a transcriptional activator of paired-like homeodomain transcription factor 1 (PITX1; GeneID 5307). Contraction of the macrosatellite repeat causes autosomal dominant facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

ATTO 633 ATTO 633 from ATTO-TEC has an excitation peak at 629 nm and an emission peak at 657 nm. ATTO 633 belongs to a new generation of fluorescent labels for the red spectral region. Characteristic features of the label are strong absorption, high fluorescence quantum yield, and high thermal and photo-stability. Thus ATTO 633 is highly suitable for single-molecule detection applications and high-resolution microscopy such as SIM, STED etc. Additionally the dye highly qualifies to be applied in flow cytometry (FACS), fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH) and many more. In common with most ATTO-labels, absorption and fluorescence are independent of pH, at least in the range of pH 2 to 11, used in typical applications. ATTO 633 is a cationic dye. After coupling to a substrate the label carries a net electrical charge of +1. The label is moderately hydrophilic.
