Specificity
NeuN antibody specifically recognizes the DNA-binding, neuron-specific protein NeuN, which is present in most CNS and PNS neuronal cell types of all vertebrates tested. NeuN protein distributions are apparently restricted to neuronal nuclei and some proximal neuronal processes in both fetal and adult brain although, some neurons fail to be recognized by NeuN at all ages: INL retinal cells, Cajal-Retzius cells, Purkinje cells, inferior olivary and dentate nucleus neurons, and sympathetic ganglion cells are examples. Immunohistochemically detectable NeuN protein first appears at developmental timepoints that correspond with the withdrawal of the neuron from the cell cycle and/or with the initiation of terminal differentiation of the neuro. Immunoreactivity appears around E9.5 in the mouse neural tube and is extensive throughout the developing nervous system by E12.5. Strong nuclear staining suggests a nuclear regulatory protein function; however, no evidence currently exists as to whether the NeuN protein antigen has a function in the distal cytoplasm or whether it is merely synthesized there before being transported back into the nucleus. No difference between protein isolated from purified nuclei and whole brain extract on immunoblots has been found.

Background: RBFOX3/NeuN
Rbfox proteins participate in regulation of alternative splicing between family members as well as in autoregulation. While the breadth of brain and muscle specific targets for alternative splicing is well established for Rbfox proteins, those specific to Rbfox3/NeuN along with its alternative splicing mechanism are less understood. Rbfox3 has been shown to regulate neuronal differentiation by alternative splicing of Numb pre-mRNA and has a role in adult neurogenesis. Dysfunctional Rbfox3/NeuN has been associated with various neurological disorders such as neurodevelopmental delay, autism spectrum disorder, Benign rolandic epilepsy (BRE), and cognitive impairments (1,2).
