Product Specifications

Immunogen

Recombinant MyoD of Mouse origin with an epitope mapping to amino acids 180-189. (Uniprot: P15172)

Epitope

aa 180-189

Localization

Nuclear. Only nuclear staining should be considered as evidence of skeletal muscle differentiation.

Specificity

Recognizes a phosphor-protein of 45kDa, identified as MyoD1. The epitope of this monoclonal antibody maps between amino acid 180-189 in the C-terminal of Mouse MyoD1 protein. It does not cross react with myogenin, Myf5, or Myf6. Antibody to MyoD1 labels the nuclei of myoblasts in developing muscle tissues. MyoD1 is not detected in normal adult tissue, but is highly expressed in the tumor cell nuclei of rhabdomyosarcomas. Occasionally nuclear expression of MyoD1 is seen in ectomesenchymoma and a subset of Wilms sarcomas and alveolar soft part sarcomas.

Marker

Rhabdomyosarcoma Marker

Clonality

Monoclonal

Host

Mouse

Isotype

IgG1 kappa

Theoretical MW

45 kDa.
Disclaimer note: The observed molecular weight of the protein may vary from the listed predicted molecular weight due to post translational modifications, post translation cleavages, relative charges, and other experimental factors.

Description

The prediluted antibody does not require any mixing, dilution, reconstitution, or titration; the antibody is ready-to-use and optimized for staining.

Applications for MyoD Antibody (SPM427) - IHC-Prediluted

Application
Recommended Usage

Immunohistochemistry-Paraffin

0.5 - 1.0 ug/ml
Application Notes
Immunohistochemistry (Formalin-fixed): 1-2ug/ml for 30 minutes at RT. Staining of formalin-fixed tissues is enhanced by heating tissue sections in 1mM EDTA Buffer, pH 7.5-8.5, for 45 min at 95C followed by cooling at RT for 20 minutes.
Optimal dilution for a specific application should be determined.

Background: MyoD

The Myogenic determination gene (MyoD) was first identified by the virtue of its ability to convert embryonic mouse fibroblast cells to muscle cells. It was subsequently shown that forced expression of MyoD (human homolog is myf 3) gene in a wide variety of normal and neoplastic cells could either convert the cells to muscle cells or activate a set of the otherwise transcriptionally inactive muscle-specific genes in these cells. The regulatory domain of the MyoD gene product lies within a 70 amino acid region and comprises a basic DNA binding motif and a helix-loop-helix (HLH) dimerization motif. Subsequent studies identified three other genes whose products shared sequence homology for the basic HLH domain of MyoD. These are; myf5, myogenin (human homolog is myf4) and myf6 (also known as MRF4 and herculin).
