The NKX3-1/CCP8 FISH Probe Kit is designed to detect the human NKX3-1 gene located on chromosome band 8p21.2, along with the number of chromosome 8 copies per cell.
Amplification and abnormal expression of the NKX3-1 gene – also known as NKX3, BAPX2, NKX3A or NKX3.1 – has been observed in prostate cancer.
