Storage

Supplied in 10 mM sodium HEPES (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 100 µg/mL BSA, 50% glycerol, and less than 0.02% sodium azide. Store at –20°C. Do not aliquot the antibody.

Specificity/Sensitivity

ZHX2 (E5H5G) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody recognizes endogenous levels of total ZHX2 protein.

Source / Purification

Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with recombinant protein specific to the carboxy terminus of human ZHX2 protein.

Background

Zinc fingers and homeoboxes protein 2 (ZHX2) is a transcriptional repressor and tumor suppressor that belongs to the zinc fingers and homeoboxes (ZHX) protein family, which also contains ZHX1 and ZHX3 (1). ZHX proteins are expressed only in vertebrates and contain two C2H2 zinc finger motifs as well as five homeodomains, which are involved in DNA-protein and protein-protein interactions (2). ZHX2 has been shown to form homodimers as well as heterodimers with ZHX1, and also interacts with nuclear factor Y subunit alpha (NF-YA) (2). Through these interactions, ZHX2 functions as a transcriptional repressor by reducing the expression levels of a number of genes including cyclin A, cyclin E, and alpha-fetoprotein, among others (2-4). ZHX2 functions as a tumor suppressor in some tissues, as loss of ZHX2 leads to hepatocellular carcinoma, lymphoma, and myeloma (4). In clear cell renal carcinoma (ccRCC), ZHX2 appears to function as an oncogene, as loss of von Hippel-Lindau protein (VHL) leads to increased expression of ZHX2 and increased cellular proliferation (5). ZHX2 also contributes to atherosclerosis by promoting macrophage survival and pro-inflammatory function, leading to growth of atherosclerotic lesions (6). Additionally, ZHX2 functions to promote the maintenance of neural progenitor cells in the brain through repression of ephrin-B (7).

Species Reactivity

Species reactivity is determined by testing in at least one approved application (e.g., western blot).

Western Blot Buffer

IMPORTANT: For western blots, incubate membrane with diluted primary antibody in 5% w/v BSA, 1X TBS, 0.1% Tween® 20 at 4°C with gentle shaking, overnight.

Confocal immunofluorescent analysis of MCF7 cells (left, positive) or AGS cells (right, negative) using ZHX2 (E5H5G) Rabbit mAb (green), DyLight™ 650 Phalloidin #12956 (red), and DAPI #4083 (blue).
Immunofluorescence Image 1: ZHX2 (E5H5G) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody
Chromatin immunoprecipitations were performed with cross-linked chromatin from MCF7 cells and either ZHX2 (E5H5G) Rabbit mAb or Normal Rabbit IgG #2729 using SimpleChIP® Plus Enzymatic Chromatin IP Kit (Magnetic Beads) #9005. The enriched DNA was quantified by real-time PCR using human RANBP6 exon 1 primers, human CCDC174 promoter primers, human NUCKS1 promoter primers, and SimpleChIP® Human α Satellite Repeat Primers #4486. The amount of immunoprecipitated DNA in each sample is represented as signal relative to the total amount of input chromatin, which is equivalent to one.
