The expression region of this recombinant Human FOXL2 covers amino acids 1-376. The expected molecular weight for the FOXL2 protein is calculated to be 43.8 kDa. Expression of this FOXL2 protein is conducted in e.coli. The FOXL2 coding gene included the N-terminal 10xHis tag and C-terminal Myc tag, which simplifies the detection and purification processes of the recombinant FOXL2 protein in following stages of expression and purification.The human forkhead box protein L2 (FOXL2) is a transcription factor that plays a crucial role in various developmental processes, particularly in the development of ovarian tissues. FOXL2 is prominently expressed in ovarian granulosa cells, contributing to ovarian function and folliculogenesis. Mutations in the FOXL2 gene are associated with blepharophimosis, ptosis, and epicanthus inversus syndrome (BPES), a genetic disorder characterized by eyelid malformations and ovarian dysfunction in affected females. Beyond its developmental role, FOXL2 is implicated in maintaining granulosa cell identity and suppressing male-specific gene expression in ovarian tissues. Understanding FOXL2's functions is essential for unraveling the complexities of ovarian development and related genetic disorders.

Target Name
FOXL2
Target Full Name
Forkhead box protein L2
Target Function
Transcriptional regulator. Critical factor essential for ovary differentiation and maintenance, and repression of the genetic program for somatic testis determination. Prevents trans-differentiation of ovary to testis through transcriptional repression of the Sertoli cell-promoting gene SOX9. Has apoptotic activity in ovarian cells. Suppresses ESR1-mediated transcription of PTGS2/COX2 stimulated by tamoxifen. Is a regulator of CYP19 expression. Participates in SMAD3-dependent transcription of FST via the intronic SMAD-binding element. Is a transcriptional repressor of STAR. Activates SIRT1 transcription under cellular stress conditions. Activates transcription of OSR2.
Target Involvement
Blepharophimosis, ptosis, and epicanthus inversus syndrome (BPES); Premature ovarian failure 3 (POF3)
Target Subcellular Location
Nucleus.
Target Tissue Specificity
In addition to its expression in the developing eyelid, it is transcribed very early in somatic cells of the developing gonad (before sex determination) and its expression persists in the follicular cells of the adult ovary.

Target Background
This gene encodes a forkhead transcription factor. The protein contains a fork-head DNA-binding domain and may play a role in ovarian development and function. Expansion of a polyalanine repeat region and other mutations in this gene are a cause of blepharophimosis syndrome and premature ovarian failure 3.
