DescriptionChIPAb+™ FOXA1 Antibody
OverviewAll ChIPAb+ antibodies are individually validated for chromatin precipitation, every lot, every time. Each ChIPAb+ antibody set includes control primers (tested every lot by qPCR) to biologically validate your IP results in a locus-specific context. The qPCR protocol and primer sequences are provided, allowing researchers to validate ChIP protocols when using our antibody in their chromatin context. Each set also includes a negative control antibody to ensure specificity of the ChIP reaction.
The ChIPAb+™ FOXA1 set includes the FOXA1 antibody, a Normal Rabbit IgG, and control primers which amplify a 138 bp region of ChIP Primers, Mouse Hnf4α enhancer. The FOXA1 and negative controls are supplied in a scalable "per ChIP" reaction size and can be used to functionally validate the precipitation of FOXA1-associated chromatin.
Alternate Names
  • Forkhead box protein A1
  • Hepatocyte nuclear factor 3-alpha
  • HNF-3A
  • Transcription factor 3A
  • TCF-3A
Background InformationHNF-3A, Hepatocyte nuclear factor 3-alpha (also called FOXA1) is member of the Forkhead family of winged-helix transcription factors. This protein family has around 50 known transcription factors and play an important role in the regulation of cell differentiation, organogenesis, and gene expression. High levels of expression of HNF-3A has been observed in tumors arising from both the prostate and breast. Here it is believed this protein interacts with the androgen receptor in prostate tumors and the estrogen receptor α in breast tumors. In the case of ERα, HNF-3A interacts with cis-regulatory regions in heterochromatin and enhances the interaction of ERα with chromatin.

Key Applications
  • Western Blotting
  • Immunocytochemistry
  • Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChIP)
Application NotesChromatin Immunoprecipitation:
Representative lot data.
Sonicated chromatin prepared from Mouse liver tissue (1 mg tissue equivalents per IP) were subjected to chromatin immunoprecipitation using 2 µl of either normal rabbit IgG, or 2 µl Anti-FOXA1 (Part No.CS207368) and the Magna ChIP™ A Kit (Cat. # 17-610). Successful immunoprecipitation of FoxA1 associated DNA fragments was verified by qPCR using ChIP Primers, Mouse Hnf4α enhancer as a positive locus, and mouse Hnf4α promoter as a negative locus. (Figure 2). Data is presented as percent input of each IP sample relative to input chromatin for each amplicon and ChIP sample as indicated.
Please refer to the EZ-Magna ChIP™ A (Cat. # 17-408) or EZ-ChIP™ (Cat. # 17-371) protocol for experimental details.
Western Blotting Analysis:
Representative lot data.
Human pancreas tissue lysate was resolved by electrophoresis, transferred to PVDF membranes and probed with Anti-FOXA1 (0.5 µg/mL).
Proteins were visualized using a Donkey Anti-Rabbit IgG conjugated to HRP and chemiluminescence detection system. (Figure 3)
Arrow indicates FOXA1 (~51 kDa).
Immunocytochemistry Analysis:
Representative lot data.
Confocal fluorescent analysis of NIH/3T3 and HeLa cells using Anti-HNF-3A/FOXA1 (Red). Actin filaments have been labeled with Alexa Fluor® 488 Dye-Phalloidin (Green). Nucleus is stained with DAPI (Blue). This antibody positively stains nucleus. (Figure 4)

Antibody TypePolyclonal Antibody
Entrez Gene Number
Entrez Gene SummaryThis gene encodes a member of the forkhead class of DNA-binding proteins. These hepatocyte nuclear factors are transcriptional activators for liver-specific transcripts such as albumin and transthyretin, and they also interact with chromatin. Similar family members in mice have roles in the regulation of metabolism and in the differentiation of the pancreas and liver. [provided by RefSeq].
