Product Specifications

Immunogen

This affinity purified BORIS Antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide corresponding to N-Terminal region near aa 1-30 of human BORIS protein. (Uniprot: Q8NI51)

Reactivity Notes

A BLAST analysis was used to suggest cross reactivity with BORIS proteins from human and chimpanzee. Partial reactivity may occur against BORIS from mouse, dog and rat sources based on varying degrees of homology to the immunizing sequence. Reactivity against homologues from other sources is not known.

Background: BORIS

BORIS (Brother of the Regulator of Imprinted Sites) also known as CCTC-binding factor-like protein, is normally only expressed in the testis and expressed in a mutually exclusive manner with CTCF during male germ cell development. However, previous studies have shown that BORIS is abnormally activated in a wide range of human cancers. Expression of BORIS in normally BORIS-negative cells promotes cell growth that may lead to transformation. BORIS maps to the cancer-associated amplification region thought to contain an oncogene or dominant-immortalizing gene. BORIS is a candidate protein for the epigenetic reprogramming factor acting in the male germ line. BORIS is found in both the nucleus and cytoplasm.
