		Technical Data
029740	BORIS (Transcriptional Repressor CTCFL, Brother of the Regulator of Imprinted Sites, CCCTC-binding Factor, CTCF Paralog, CTCF-like Protein, Ctcfl)

Description:
Brother of the regulator of imprinted sites (BORIS) is a transcription factor also known as CCCTC- binding factor like protein (CTCF). Boris is usually expressed at a high level in the testis which correlates with male germ cell development and is also abnormally activated in a broad range of human cancers. Boris can be found in the nucles as well as in the cytoplasm.

Applications:
Suitable for use in Western Blot. Other applications not tested.

Recommended Dilution:
Western Blot: 0.5-4ug/ml
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.

Storage and Stability:
May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
