General description

OSTERIX, or SP7, is a zinc finger-containing, osteoblast-specific transcription factor that is distinctly expressed in all developing bones, and is a key requirement for the differentiation of pre-osteoblasts into fully functional osteoblasts. While research on the actual functional mechanisms of OSTERIX is still on-going, current findings indicate that OSTERIX expression is induced by BMP-2 and Dlx5, and operates downstream of RUNX2, supporting its role in mesenchymal stem cell differentiation. Further studies also indicate that the OSTERIX transcription factor may also play a role in negatively regulating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathways and the proliferation of osteroblast cell types during embryonic osteogenesis.

Immunogen

GST-tagged recombinant protein corresponding to human Osterix.

Application

Detect the Osterix (SP7) protein using this Anti-Osterix (SP7), clone 6B12.1 validated for use in WB & IHC.
Immunohistochemistry Analysis: A 1:200 dilution from a representative lot detected Isocitrate dehydrogenase in rat tooth tissue. Nuclear staining may be observed in epithelial cells in some tissues.
