BP-1 gene, a member of the DLX homeobox gene family, is overexpressed in 80% of breast cancer patients, and thus represents a potential new target for diagnosis and treatment.Members of the Dlx gene family contain a homeobox that is related to that of Distal-less (Dll), a gene expressed in the head and limbs of the developing fruit fly (Drosophila). The Distal-less (Dlx) family of genes comprises at least 6 different members, DLX1-DLX6. The DLX proteins are postulated to play a role in forebrain and craniofacial development. Three transcript variants have been described for this gene, however, the full length nature of one variant has not been described. Studies of the two splice variants revealed that one encoded isoform functions as a repressor of the beta-globin gene while the other isoform lacks that function.
BP-1 Human Recombinant (aa 103-168) expressed in E.coli, shows a 35 kDa band on SDS-PAGE.The BP-1 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
| UniProt Protein Function: | DLX4: May play a role in determining the production of hemoglobin S. May act as a repressor. Belongs to the distal-less homeobox family. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. |
| UniProt Protein Details: | Protein type:DNA-binding; Transcription factor Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 17q21.33 Molecular Function:protein binding; sequence-specific DNA binding Biological Process: negative regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter |
