Anti-c-myc (Myc, myc-1) (BSA & azide free), clone 0.N.222

c-myc is involved in the control of cell proliferation and differentiation. Translocation of the c-myc locus on chromosome 8 to the immunoglobulin loci on chromosome 14 (heavy chain), 2 (k light chain), or 22 (l light chain) is described in Burkitt's lymphoma and other B-cell lympho-proliferative conditions. An aberrant expression of the c-myc gene occurs in tumors of different origins such as colorectal, gastric, gallbladder, hepatic, mammary, ovarian, endometrial, head and neck, pulmonary, prostatic, thyroidal, oral, ocular, nasopharyngeal, endocrine, as well as hematopoietic neoplasms. Hybridoma: Produced by the fusion between BALB/c splenocytes and mouse myeloma SP2 cells. , Applications: Electron Microscopy, Flow Cytometry, Immunofluorescence, Immunohistochemistry (frozen & formalin/paraffin), Affinity Purification, Immunoprecipitation (Clone-1 is better), Western Blotting of fusion proteins labeled with EQKLISEEDL tag. , Not assessed for ELISA. Not recommended for Immunoprecipitation (of c-myc) or Western Blotting (of c-myc). Recommended Dilution: Immunohistochemistry: 4ug/ml Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires boiling tissue sections in 10mM citrate buffer, pH 6.0 for 10-20 min., followed by cooling at RT for 20 min. Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability:, May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
