MUM1 Antibody Detection in Human HeLa and Jurkat Cells by WB. Western blot testing of human HeLa (lane 1) and Jurkat T-cell (lane 2) lysates with MUM1 Antibody shows strong, discrete bands migrating at approximately 40 kDa in both samples. This is below the predicted molecular weight of approximately 51 kDa for full-length IRF4. Because the reason for this migration difference is not established by the experiment, I would retain the observed molecular weight without assigning it to a specific processing or modification mechanism. The consistent bands in both lysates demonstrate antibody reactivity using this Multiple Myeloma Oncogene 1 Antibody.
MUM1 Antibody Detection of Recombinant Human IRF4 Protein by WB. Western blot testing of 0.5 ng recombinant human IRF4 protein with MUM1 Antibody shows a single strong, discrete band migrating at approximately 38-40 kDa. The isolated signal demonstrates recognition of the recombinant IRF4 antigen by this Multiple Myeloma Oncogene 1 Antibody. Because the recombinant protein construct and its expected molecular weight are not specified on the product page, the observed migration should not be compared directly with the approximately 51 kDa predicted molecular weight of full-length endogenous IRF4.
MUM1 Antibody Staining in Human Tonsil by IHC. Immunohistochemistry staining of FFPE human tonsil tissue with MUM1 Antibody shows strong brown nuclear labeling in a distinct population of lymphoid cells, with numerous surrounding nuclei remaining negative. The discrete nuclear staining pattern is consistent with the localization of MUM1/IRF4 as a transcription factor and highlights the heterogeneous expression expected among lymphoid cell populations. The staining demonstrates detection of IRF4 in human tonsil tissue using this Multiple Myeloma Oncogene 1 Antibody.

Description

MUM1 Antibody recognizes multiple myeloma oncogene 1 (MUM1), a transcription factor encoded by the IRF4 gene and also known as interferon regulatory factor 4. IRF4 belongs to the interferon regulatory factor family of DNA-binding proteins and has important functions in immune cell development, differentiation, and activation. Unlike several other members of the IRF family, MUM1 is expressed predominantly in cells of the immune system and participates in transcriptional programs governing lymphoid and myeloid cell biology.

MUM1 has particularly important roles in B-cell maturation and the differentiation of activated B cells into antibody-secreting plasma cells. Changes in IRF4 expression help coordinate distinct transcriptional programs during successive stages of B-cell development. The protein also contributes to the differentiation and function of several T-cell subsets and participates in macrophage and dendritic cell biology. Through these activities, MUM1 connects transcriptional regulation with adaptive immunity, antibody production, inflammatory responses, and immune cell homeostasis.

MUM1 is extensively investigated in hematologic malignancies, particularly multiple myeloma and lymphoid neoplasms. IRF4-dependent transcriptional programs can contribute to plasma cell identity and survival, while altered expression or activity is associated with several forms of lymphoma and leukemia. MUM1 expression is also widely studied in the context of B-cell differentiation because its appearance marks a later stage of differentiation than proteins associated with the germinal-center program.

This Multiple Myeloma Oncogene 1 Antibody is a rabbit polyclonal generated against recombinant human IRF4 corresponding to amino acids 272-451. The antibody provides a polyclonal reagent for investigating expression of MUM1/IRF4 and complements monoclonal antibodies directed against this immune regulatory transcription factor. NSJ Bioreagents supplies this antibody for research use only.

A MUM1 Antibody can be used to investigate IRF4 expression, B-cell and plasma cell differentiation, immune regulation, multiple myeloma, lymphoid malignancies, hematopoietic differentiation, and transcriptional control.

Application Notes

The stated application concentrations are suggested starting amounts. Titration of the MUM1 Antibody / Multiple Myeloma Oncogene 1 Antibody may be required due to differences in protocols and secondary/substrate sensitivity.

Immunogen

Human partial recombinant protein (AA 272-451) was used as the immunogen for this MUM1 Antibody.

Storage

After reconstitution, the MUM1 Antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20oC. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.

Alternate Names

multiple myeloma oncogene 1 antibody, IRF4 antibody, interferon regulatory factor 4 antibody, LSIRF antibody, PIP antibody, ICSAT antibody
