Mouse Anti-NANOG (Homeobox Protein NANOG, Homeobox Transcription Factor Nanog, hNanog, FLJ12581, FLJ40451) (FITC)

NANOG is a unique variant of NK2 family of transcription factors. It is a human ortholog of mouse Nanog and consists of a highly conserved homeodomain and Trp-rich repeats. It is specifically expressed by embryonic stem cells and is crucial for second embryonic lineage determination. It works in concert with OCT-4 and SOX-2 and plays a central role in regulating pluripotency and self-renewal of ICM and ES cells. It functions independent of LIF:gp130:Stat3 pathway and prevents differentiation of ES cells to extraembryonic endoderm and trophectoderm lineages. Its expression has also been detected in embryonic carcinoma cells and germ line tumors indicating a therapeutic intervention.

Storage and Stability
Store product at 4°C if to be used immediately within two weeks. For long-term storage, aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing and store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable at -20°C for 12 months after receipt. Dilute required amount only prior to immediate use. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. Caution: FITC conjugates are sensitive to light. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
Note: Applications are based on unconjugated antibody.
