PAX2 encodes paired box gene 2, one of many human homologues of the Drosophila melanogaster gene prd. The central feature of this transcription factor gene family is the conserved DNA-binding paired box domain. PAX2 is believed to be a target of transcriptional supression by the tumor suppressor gene WT1. Mutations within PAX2 have been shown to result in optic nerve colobomas and renal hypoplasia. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants.

PAX5,also named B-cell specific activator protein (BSAP),is a member of the highly conserved paired box (PAX)-domain family of transcription factors. PAX5 is essential in normal B-cell lymphopoiesis. It is expressed in pro-B,pre-B and mature B lymphocytes but not in plasma cells. PAX5 is a common target in leukemogenesis of B-ALL ( B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia) along with CDKN2A. Owing to its frequent deletion in B-ALL,PAX5 could be used as one of the molecular markers in diagnosis and monitoring of the disease. This antibody is specific to PAX5. It will not cross react with other PAX members.
This gene encodes a member of the paired box (PAX) family of transcription factors. The central feature of this gene family is a novel, highly conserved DNA-binding motif, known as the paired box. PAX proteins are important regulators in early development, and alterations in the expression of their genes are thought to contribute to neoplastic transformation. This gene encodes the B-cell lineage specific activator protein that is expressed at early, but not late stages of B-cell differentiation. Its expression has also been detected in developing CNS and testis and so the encoded protein may also play a role in neural development and spermatogenesis. This gene is located at 9p13, which is involved in t(9;14)(p13;q32) translocations recurring in small lymphocytic lymphomas of the plasmacytoid subtype, and in derived large-cell lymphomas. This translocation brings the potent E-mu enhancer of the IgH gene into close proximity of the PAX5 promoter, suggesting that the deregulation of transcription of this gene contributes to the pathogenesis of these lymphomas. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described but their biological validity has not been determined.
