Target/Specificity | This PHEX antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 567-595 amino acids from the C-terminal region of human PHEX. |
Dilution | WB~~1:1000 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | PHEX Antibody (C-term) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |

Synonyms | PEX |
Function | Peptidase that cleaves SIBLING (small integrin-binding ligand, N-linked glycoprotein)-derived ASARM peptides, thus regulating their biological activity (PubMed:9593714, PubMed:15664000, PubMed:18162525, PubMed:18597632). Cleaves ASARM peptides between Ser and Glu or Asp residues (PubMed:18597632). Regulates osteogenic cell differentiation and bone mineralization through the cleavage of the MEPE-derived ASARM peptide (PubMed:18597632). Promotes dentin mineralization and renal phosphate reabsorption by cleaving DMP1- and MEPE-derived ASARM peptides (PubMed:18597632, PubMed:18162525). Inhibits the cleavage of MEPE by CTSB/cathepsin B thus preventing MEPE degradation (PubMed:12220505). |
Cellular Location | Cell membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein |
Tissue Location | Specifically expressed in ovary (PubMed:9070861). Expressed at low levels in kidney (PubMed:9070861) |

Background
The protein encoded by this gene is a transmembrane endopeptidase that belongs to the type II integral membrane zinc-dependent endopeptidase family. The protein is thought to be involved in bone and dentin mineralization and renal phosphate reabsorption. Mutations in this gene cause X-linked hypophosphatemic rickets.
