This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification.
Immunogen
This CRX antibody is generated from a rabbit immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 294-297 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human CRX.
Binds and transactivates the sequence 5'-TAATC[CA]-3' which is found upstream of several photoreceptor-specific genes, including the opsin genes. Acts synergistically with other transcription factors, e.g. NRL and RX, to regulate photoreceptor cell-specific gene transcription. Essential for the maintenance of mammalian photoreceptors.
