Product Specs

Introduction
Homeobox C11 (HOXC11) is a member of the Abd-B homeobox family. This family of transcription factors, encoded for by homeobox genes, are well conserved and play a vital role in morphogenesis in all multicellular organisms. HOXC11 is one of numerous homeobox HOXC genes placed in a cluster on chromosome 12. It attaches to a promoter element of lactase-phlorizin hydrolase and also takes part in early intestinal development. An alternatively spliced variant encoding a shorter isoform has been defined however, its full-length nature has not been determined.

Product Science Overview

Gene and Protein Structure

The HOXC11 gene is one of several homeobox HOXC genes located in a cluster on chromosome 12 in humans . The gene encodes a protein that is involved in the regulation of gene expression, particularly during early development. The recombinant HOXC11 protein is typically produced in E. coli and is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 327 amino acids, with a molecular mass of approximately 36.1 kDa .

Function and Role

HOXC11 binds to a promoter element of the lactase-phlorizin hydrolase (LPH) gene, indicating its role in early intestinal development . It has also been implicated in the regulation of pattern formation along the anterio-posterior body axis, a common feature among HOX proteins .

Expression and Localization

The expression of HOXC11 is tissue-specific. For instance, in water buffalo (Bubalus bubalis), the highest expression levels of HOXC11 protein were observed in the kidney and lung . This suggests potential roles in renal and respiratory functions, although these roles are not yet fully established.

Structural Insights

In silico analysis of HOXC11 has revealed a predominance of α-helices and the presence of six conserved domains . The putative 3D structure of HOXC11 includes fifteen possible DNA-interacting residues within the homeodomain, which are crucial for its function as a transcription factor .

Applications

Recombinant HOXC11 proteins are used in various research applications, including studies on gene regulation, developmental biology, and protein-DNA interactions. The recombinant protein is often tagged with a His-tag to facilitate purification and detection .
