Storage: -20C
Application: All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project (www.proteinatlas.org)and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry. The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link.

Biochem Physiol Actions: FOXP4 (Forkhead box P4) is a potential member of the FOXP subfamily of winged-helix transcription factors. It is associated with various processes such as embryonic development, cell cycle regulation, and oncogenesis. It is expressed in the pulmonary, neural, and gut tissues in the developing embryo. It has also found in the epithelial cells of immature intestine and villi of adult intestine. It plays a pivotal role in the neuronal development of the central nervous system. Homo and heterodimerization processes control the transcriptional activity of FOXP4. At the site of infection, FOXP4 regulates the T cell cytokine recall response, fates of T cells and also controls T cell development in dispensable manners.
