Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-FOXG1 antibody (AB18259)
IHC image of FoxG1 staining in mouse brain E14 formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue section, performed on a Leica Bond™ system using the standard protocol B. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20 mins. The section was then incubated with ab18259, 0.5 μg/ml, for 15 mins at room temperature. A goat anti-rabbit biotinylated secondary antibody was used to detect the primary, and visualized using an HRP conjugated ABC system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX.
Staining revealed in telencephalon (but not diencephalon) as expected.
For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated) customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, primary antibody concentration and antibody incubation times.

Western blot - Anti-FOXG1 antibody (AB18259)
This blot was produced using a 4-12% Bis-tris gel under the MES buffer system. The gel was run at 200V for 35 minutes before being transferred onto a Nitrocellulose membrane at 30V for 70 minutes. The membrane was then blocked for an hour using 3% Milk before being incubated with ab18259 overnight at 4°C. Antibody binding was detected using an anti-rabbit antibody conjugated to HRP, and visualised using ECL development solution ab133406.

Western blot - Anti-FOXG1 antibody (AB18259)
ab18259 detects a band of ~50kDa in brain lysates. This band is blocked by addition of the immunizing peptide ab19644 which suggests that is specific for FOXG1.
This blot was produced using a 4-12% Bis-tris gel under the MOPS buffer system. The gel was run at 200V for 50 minutes before being transferred onto a Nitrocellulose membrane at 30V for 70 minutes. The membrane was then blocked for an hour using 5% Bovine Serum Albumin before being incubated with ab18259 overnight at 4°C. Antibody binding was detected using an anti-rabbit HRP secondary antibody (ab97051), and visualised using ECL development solution.

Biological function summary
FOXG1 regulates processes of neural development and brain function. It is not known to be part of a protein complex but FOXG1 binds to DNA influencing the transcriptional activity of genes involved in neurogenesis. The protein contributes to the development of structures such as the telencephalon and regulates transitions between different stages of neuronal cell development. Its role extends to maintaining the balance between proliferation and differentiation of neural progenitor cells.
Pathways
FOXG1 participates in the Notch and Wnt signaling pathways. These pathways are critical for cell fate determination and embryonic development. FOXG1 interacts with proteins like those in the Notch pathway to maintain neural progenitors in a proliferative state. In the Wnt signaling pathway FOXG1 helps in modulating the signaling that controls brain patterning working in concert with other transcription factors and signaling molecules.
