Description Clone REA140 recognizes PAX-5, which belongs to the paired box (PAX) gene family of transcription factors. PAX-5 is the only mammalian PAX transcription factor, which is expressed in hematopoietic cells. Within the hematopoietic cells, expression of PAX-5 is limited to cells of the B-lymphocyte lineage and it exerts transcriptional control of B cell commitment, development, and tumorigenesis. PAX-5 contains DNA binding conserved ‘paired’ domain, which consists of an N- and a C-terminal subdomain. Each subregion contains a homeodomain-like helix-turn-helix motif, which binds to a half-site of the PAX-5 recognition sequence. Depending upon the interaction partners, PAX-5 serves either as an activator or repressor of transcription. For instance, Groucho protein family members, by binding to a conserved octapeptide motif of PAX-5, enable PAX-5 to serve as a repressor. | Additional information: Clone REA140 displays negligible binding to Fc receptors. |
About Pax5 and PE
Pax5 This gene encodes a member of the paired box (PAX) family of transcription factors. The central feature of this gene family is a novel, highly conserved DNA-binding motif, known as the paired box. Paired box transcription factors are important regulators in early development, and alterations in the expression of their genes are thought to contribute to neoplastic transformation. This gene encodes the B-cell lineage specific activator protein that is expressed at early, but not late stages of B-cell differentiation. Its expression has also been detected in developing CNS and testis and so the encoded protein may also play a role in neural development and spermatogenesis. This gene is located at 9p13, which is involved in t(9;14)(p13;q32) translocations recurring in small lymphocytic lymphomas of the plasmacytoid subtype, and in derived large-cell lymphomas. This translocation brings the potent E-mu enhancer of the IgH gene into close proximity of the PAX5 promoter, suggesting that the deregulation of transcription of this gene contributes to the pathogenesis of these lymphomas. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]
PE Phycoerythrin (PE, R-PE) is a red-emitting fluorescent protein-chromophore complex that can be excited the 488-nm blue, 532-nm green, or 561-nm yellow-green laser with increasing efficiency and captured with a 586/14 nm bandpass filter. PE has an excitation peak at 565 nm and an emission peak at 578 nm. PE is 240kD in size and has an extinction coefficient of ~2x10^6 which makes it one of the brightest fluorophores available and a potent donor upon which to build tandem fluorophores with longer Stoke's Shifts.
