Myc Antibody [clone SPM237] (V2745)

Description

Myc, or c-Myc, is involved in the control of cell proliferation and differentiation and is amplified and/or overexpressed in a variety of tumors. Over-expression of c-Myc protein occurs frequently in luminal cells of prostate intraepithelial neoplasia as well as in most primary carcinomas and metastatic disease.

Application Notes

Optimal dilution of the Myc antibody should be determined by the researcher.

1. Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires boiling tissue sections in 10mM Tris with 1mM EDTA, pH 9.0, for 10-20 min followed by cooling at RT for 20 min
2. The prediluted format is supplied in a dropper bottle and is optimized for use in IHC. After epitope retrieval step (if required), drip mAb solution onto the tissue section and incubate at RT for 30 min.

Immunogen

Amino acids AEEQKLISEEDLLRKRREQLKHKLEQLRNSCA from the C-terminus were used as the immunogen for the Myc antibody.

Storage

Store the Myc antibody at 2-8oC (with azide) or aliquot and store at -20oC or colder (without azide).
