Biological background

Biological context: Pre-mRNA processing factor involved in disassembly of spliceosomes after the release of mature mRNA. In cooperation with TFIP11 seem to be involved in the transition of the U2, U5 and U6 snRNP-containing IL complex to the snRNP-free IS complex leading to efficient debranching and turnover of excised introns.

Expression and localization notes: cellular localization: Postsynaptic density. Cytoskeleton. Cytoplasm. Axon. Dendrite. Synapse., tissue context: Ubiquitous..

Common research applications

• Western blotting (WB): Compare HOXC13 levels across samples and conditions using appropriate loading and biological controls.
• Immunohistochemistry (IHC): Evaluate spatial distribution of HOXC13 in tissue sections, considering fixation and antigen retrieval effects.
• Immunofluorescence / ICC: Assess subcellular localization patterns and co-localization with compartment markers in cultured cells.
• Flow cytometry: Quantify HOXC13-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)

• Background: Homeobox protein Hox-C13 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HOXC13 gene. This gene belongs to the homeobox family of genes. The homeobox genes encode a highly conserved family of transcription factors that play an important role in morphogenesis in all multicellular organisms. Mammals possess four similar homeobox gene clusters, HOXA, HOXB, HOXC and HOXD, which are located on different chromosomes and consist of 9 to 11 genes arranged in tandem. This gene is one of several homeobox HOXC genes located in a cluster on chromosome 12. The product of this gene may play a role in the development of hair, nail, and filiform papilla.
• Cross reactivity: No cross-reactivity with other proteins.
• Cellular localization: Postsynaptic density. Cytoskeleton. Cytoplasm. Axon. Dendrite. Synapse.
• Tissue details: Ubiquitous.
