FOXO4 polyclonal, anti-human

Background:
FKHR (for forkhead in rhabdomyosarcoma), FKHRL1, and AFX1 are members of a subfamily of the forkhead family of transcription factors. AFX1, also known as FoxO4, is expressed in a wide variety of tissues and, like other FKHR proteins, AFX1 contains a single forkhead domain and serine-proline-rich region, which mediate DNA binding. AFX1-mediated transcriptional activation is regulated by the serine/threonine kinase Akt1, which phosphorylates AFX1 and in turn, sequesters AFX1 in the cytosol, thereby blocking nuclear localization and DNA binding. Genetic mutations in FKHR genes, including the t(2,13) and t(1,3) translocations, are commonly found in alveolar rhabdomyosarcomas. Additionally, the t(x,11) translocation of the AFX1 gene, which involves the fusion of a serine-proline-rich sequence of AFX1 to the carboxy terminus of a truncated MLL, results in acute lymphocytic leukemia.
