LMX1B (D159) polyclonal antibody

The Lim class homeobox gene Lmx1b is required for the normal development of the dopaminergic system. Loss of dopaminergic neurons is associated with one of the most prominent human neurological disorders, Parkinson's disease (PD). Dopaminergic neurons play an important role in the control of multiple brain functions including voluntary movement alongside an array of behavioral processes such as mood, reward, addiction, and stress. Lmx1b is one of several transcription factors involved in the generation of dopaminergic neurons in the brain.
