Biological background
Biological context: Transcription factor that binds consensus sites on a variety of gene promoters and activate their transcription. Involved in proper palate formation, most probably through the expression of MSX1 and TGFB3 genes which are targets of this transcription factor. Also implicated in thyroid gland morphogenesis. May inly play a role in cell growth and migration through the regulation of WNT5A expression.
Expression and localization notes: cellular localization: Nucleus., tissue context: Expressed at low levels in the more differentiated suprabasal regions of the small intestine, and at higher levels in the colon, mainly in the upper region and in scattered cells throughout the remaining epithelium. Also expressed in epithelial cells of bladder, ileum and stomach and at lower levels in pancreas and earskin. The phosphorylated form is nearly exclusively expressed in goblet cells of the small intestine and in the lumen-proximal cells of the colon (at protein level). Also expressed in jejunum and duodenum..
Common research applications
- Western blotting (WB): Compare FOXE1 levels across samples and conditions using appropriate loading and biological controls.
- Immunohistochemistry (IHC): Evaluate spatial distribution of FOXE1 in tissue sections, considering fixation and antigen retrieval effects.
- Flow cytometry: Quantify FOXE1-positive populations in single-cell suspensions with appropriate gating and controls.
- ELISA: Use antibody-based detection formats to assess antigen presence or binding in plate-based assays.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Account for isoforms, post-translational modifications, and sample-specific processing that can shift apparent molecular weight or epitope accessibility.
- Use positive/negative biological controls where possible (e.g., known-expressing cells/tissues, knockdown/knockout models) and include appropriate secondary-only/isotype controls for imaging workflows.
Additional product notes (from provided fields)
- Specificity: No cross reactivity with other proteins.
- Background: Forkhead box protein E1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FOXE1 gene. It is mapped to 9q22.33. This intronless gene encodes a protein that belongs to the forkhead family of transcription factors. Members of this family contain a conserved 100-amino acid DNA-binding 'forkhead' domain. The encoded protein functions as a thyroid transcription factor that plays a role in thyroid morphogenesis. Mutations in this gene are associated with the Bamforth-Lazarus syndrome, and with susceptibility to nonmedullary thyroid cancer-4.
- Cross reactivity: No cross-reactivity with other proteins.
- Cellular localization: Nucleus.
- Tissue details: Expressed at low levels in the more differentiated suprabasal regions of the small intestine, and at higher levels in the colon, mainly in the upper region and in scattered cells throughout the remaining epithelium. Also expressed in epithelial cells of bladder, ileum and stomach and at lower levels in pancreas and earskin. The phosphorylated form is nearly exclusively expressed in goblet cells of the small intestine and in the lumen-proximal cells of the colon (at protein level). Also expressed in jejunum and duodenum.
