DescriptionAnti-FOXP3 Antibody
Alternate Names
  • Forkhead box protein P3
  • Scurfin
Background InformationFOXP3 (forkhead box P3) is a member of the FOX protein family and is thought to function as the master regulator in the development and function of regulatory T cells. As a member of the forkhead/winged-helix family of transcriptional regulators FOXP3 is believed to regulate expression through DNA binding. Mutations and deletions in the sequence encoding for FOXP3 expression lead to an inability to express FOXP3, causing an inability to regulate T cell development and leading to fatal autoimmune diseases such as IPEX and XLAAD. Conversely, other studies have shown high and wide expression of FOXP3 in several cancer cell lines and tumors, indicating that FOXP3 is involved in preventing immunity against malignant tumors.

Entrez Gene Number
Entrez Gene SummaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a member of the forkhead/winged-helix family of transcriptional regulators. Defects in this gene are the cause of immunodeficiency polyendocrinopathy, enteropathy, X-linked syndrome (IPEX), also known as X-linked autoimmunity-immunodeficiency syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq].
Gene Symbol
  • FOXP3
  • IPEX
  • JM2
Purification MethodUnpurified
UniProt Number
UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: Probable transcription factor. Plays a critical role in the control of immune response.

SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus (Potential).

INVOLVEMENT IN DISEASE: Defects in FOXP3 are the cause of immunodeficiency polyendocrinopathy, enteropathy, X-linked syndrome (IPEX) [MIM:304790]; also known as X-linked autoimmunity-immunodeficiency syndrome. IPEX is characterized by neonatal onset insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, infections, secretory diarrhea, trombocytopenia, anemia and eczema. It is usually lethal in infancy.

SEQUENCE SIMILARITIES: Contains 1 C2H2-type zinc finger.

Contains 1 fork-head DNA-binding domain.
