Tag Info
N-terminal His-tagged/Tag-Free
The tag type will be determined during production process. If you have specified tag type, please tell us and we will develop the specified tag preferentially.
Storage Condition
The shelf life is related to many factors, storage state, buffer ingredients, storage temperature and the stability of the protein itself.
Generally, the shelf life of liquid form is 6 months at -20°C/-80°C. The shelf life of lyophilized form is 12 months at -20°C/-80°C.

Target Background

Function(From Uniprot)
Isoform a and isoform c differentially regulate mesendoderm formation and asymmetric organ development. Both isoforms regulate left-right development, but isoform a has a stronger effect on heart laterality.
Gene References into Functions
  1. Late zygotic oep mutants have strongly reduced or absent pitx2 expression in the lateral plate mesoderm (LPM), but this expression can be rescued to strong levels by restoring oep in midline structures only. PMID:27821532
  2. asymmetric expression of fatty acid elongase 6 gene is controlled by left right Nodal signaling and is independent of Pitx2 function in zebrafish PMID:27297886
  3. This study found PITX2 to be decreased in patients with sustained Atrial Fibrillation, suggesting a PITX2 loss of function mechanism in Atrial Fibrillation. PMID:26021244
  4. Antagonism between Nodal and Pitx2c activities sets an upper limit on parapineal cell numbers. Restricting parapineal cell number is crucial for the correct elaboration of epithalamic asymmetry. PMID:24598158
  5. Pitx2, implicated in left-right asymmetry, possessed appropriate 'atypical' Pegasus binding sites in its promoter. PMID:23499657
  6. Data indicate that retinoic acid (RA) induces the expression patterns of genes normally expressed in the posterior tooth-forming region, such as pitx2 and dlx2b. PMID:22942074
  7. Pitx2 is essential for proper eye and craniofacial development in zebrafish. PMID:22303467
  8. Retinoic acid regulation of pitx2 is essential for coordinating interactions among neural crest, mesoderm, and developing eye. PMID:22125274
  9. Zebrafish pitx2 demonstrates conserved expression during ocular and craniofacial development. Thirteen conserved noncoding sequences positioned within a gene desert as far as 1.1 Mb upstream of the human PITX2 PMID:20881290

Protein Families
Paired homeobox family, Bicoid subfamily
Tissue Specificity
Isoform a and isoform c have distinct expression patterns during early mesendoderm development; isoform c is expressed symmetrically in presumptive mesendoderm during late blastula stages, and in both the anterior (polster) and posterior prechordal plate
