Brn3a is a transcription factor involved in neuronal development
Rat monoclonal purified IgG
Cat. No.: 411 017
Amount: 100 µg
Price: $415.00
Cat. No. 411 017 100 µg purified IgG, lyophilized. Albumin and azide were added for stabilization. For reconstitution add 100 µl H2O to get a 1mg/ml solution in PBS. Then aliquot and store at -20°C to -80°C until use.
Antibodies should be stored at +4°C when still lyophilized. Do not freeze!
Applications
 
WB: not tested yet

ICC: not tested yet
IHC: 1 : 500 up to 1 : 1000 (see remarks) gallery  
IHC-P: 1 : 100 gallery  

Western blot (WB); separation of proteins by PAGE and subsequent transfer to a membrane. Detection of target molecules is carried out with antibodies. Some antibodies require special sample preparation steps. For details, please refer to the “Remarks” section.

Immunoprecipitation (IP); Immunoisolation or pulldown of a target molecule using an antibody. For details and product specific hints, please refer to the ”Remarks” section.

Immunocytochemistry (ICC) on 4% PFA fixed cells. Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence. Some antibodies require special fixation methods. For details, please refer to the “Remarks” section.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC) on 4% PFA perfusion fixed tissue with 24h PFA post fixation. Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence or a chromogenic substrate. Some antibodies require special fixation methods or antigen retrieval steps. For details, please refer to the ”Remarks” section.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P) of formalin fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue (some antibodies require special antigen retrieval steps, please refer to the ”Remarks” section). Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence or a chromogenic substrate.

Clone SY-61A2
Subtype IgG2a (κ light chain)
Immunogen Synthetic peptide corresponding to residues near the amino terminus of mouse Brn3a (UniProt Id: P17208)
Reactivity Reacts with: mouse (P17208), rat (P20266).
Other species not tested yet.
Remarks

IHC: For optimal results, mild fixation (immersion fixation with 4% PFA for 15 min) according to Gierke et al. 2023 is recommended. Alternatively, heat mediated antigen retrieval (citrate buffer pH 6) can be applied.

Background

Brn 3a, also referred to as POU4F1, RGC-1 or Oct-T1, is a transcription factor highly expressed in the developing peripheral sensory nervous system, in cells of the B- and T-lymphocytic lineages and in certain regions of the CNS e.g. retina, spinal cord, midbrain superior colliculus, red nucleus, nucleus ambiguus, inferior olivary nucleus and habenula. In the retina Brn3a is a well-established marker for retinal ganglion cells.
