The Recombinant MASH1 Monoclonal Antibody is a recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody (clone C331619) against MASH1. MASH1, also known as achaete-scute homolog 1 (ASCL1), is a basic helix-loop-helix (BHLH) transcription factor which plays an essential role in the differentiation of neuroendocrine cells and neural tissues. MASH1 directly binds the E-box motif (5'-CANNTG-3') on promoters, with dimerization with other BHLH proteins required for efficient DNA binding. Acting as a pioneer transcription factor, MASH1 also accesses closed chromatin, allowing other factors to promote transcription of neuronal genes and activate neural pathways. Produced by recombinant technology in Rabbit hosts and purified by Protein A affinity chromatography, this Rabbit IgG antibody is reactive against Human samples.
This antibody is suitable for WB applications. It has been validated by WB analysis of U-2 OS (negative?control),?SK-N-BE (2), IMR-32. The target is localized to the nucleus.
