For short term use, store at 2-8C up to 1 week. For long term storage, store at -20C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles.

Foxa2 is a transcription factor that is involved in embryonic development, establishment of tissue-specific gene expression and regulation of gene expression in differentiated tissues. Foxa2 is thought to act as a 'pioneer' factor opening the compacted chromatin for other proteins through interactions with nucleosomal core histones and thereby replacing linker histones at target enhancer and/or promoter sites. In embryonic development Foxa2 is required for notochord formation. Foxa2 is involved in the development of multiple endoderm-derived organ systems such as the liver, pancreas and lungs; Foxa1 and Foxa2 seem to have at least in part redundant roles. Foxa2 modulates the transcriptional activity of nuclear hormone receptors; inhibits AR-mediated transcription from the LCN5 promoter. Foxa2 binds to fibrinogen beta promoter and is involved in IL6-induced fibrinogen beta transcriptional activation. Foxa2 interacts with the cis-acting regulatory regions of these genes. Foxa2 is involved in glucose homeostasis; regulates the expression of genes important for glucose sensing in pancreatic beta-cells and glucose homeostasis. Foxa2 is involved in regulation of fat metabolism; activates transcriptional programs of lipid metabolism and ketogenesis at low insulin state.
