Anti-VSX1 Antibody

This unconjugated IgG polyclonal reagent is raised in rabbit and specifically recognizes the human Visual System Homeobox 1 (VSX1) homeodomain transcription factor. Supplied as 50 µl of antibody, it is validated for western blot (WB) detection of endogenous VSX1 in research samples and is compatible with standard HRP- or fluorophore-conjugated secondary reagents, since the primary itself carries no label.

VSX1 is best known for its tightly restricted expression in retinal bipolar neurons and the corneal endothelium, and for the missense and frameshift variants that have been linked to corneal dystrophies such as posterior polymorphous corneal dystrophy (PPCD) and keratoconus. Researchers studying ocular development, retinal cell-fate decisions, or the molecular pathology of these corneal disorders use this reagent to probe VSX1 protein levels, validate CRISPR knockouts, and compare expression across healthy and diseased human donor tissue.

Provided by Antibodies.com, the antibody is shipped refrigerated and should be stored according to the manufacturer's instructions to preserve long-term activity. Its polyclonal format means multiple epitopes across VSX1 are recognized, which is helpful when working with truncated splice variants or low-abundance targets.
