Description
The 1H9 monoclonal antibody clone specifically binds to human and mouse Paired box protein Pax-5. Pax-5 is a ∽50 kDa protein that is also known as B-cell-specific transcription factor and B cell specific activator protein (BSAP). Pax-5 is a member of the paired box (Pax) family of transcription factors. It is expressed in pro-B, pre-B and mature B cells. Through the Groucho family of co-repressors, Pax-5 likely functions as a transcriptional repressor of non-B-lymphoid genes during the B cell commitment process. In the early stages of B cell development, Pax-5 influences the expression of several B-cell-specific genes, such as CD19 and CD20 and maintains B cell identity. Pax-5 suppression is involved in the upregulation of Blimp-1 leading to the development of Pax-5-negative plasma cells. Pax-5 mRNA is transiently detected in the mesencephalon and spinal cord during embryogenesis. Expression then shifts to the fetal liver and correlates with the onset of B lymphopoiesis. Altered forms and expression patterns of Pax-5 have been associated with some lymphoid and nonlymphoid cancers.
