          Myosin 4 Antibody (14-6503-82) in ICC/IF

          Immunofluorescence analysis of MYH4 was performed using 70% confluent log phase C2C12 cells and C2C12 differentiated Myotubes. The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 10 minutes, permeabilized with 0.1% Triton™ X-100 for 10 minutes, and blocked with 2% BSA for 45 minutes at room temperature. The cells were labeled with Myosin 4 Monoclonal Antibody (MF20), eBioscience™ (Product # 14-6503-82) at 1:100 dilution in 0.1% BSA, incubated at 4 degree celsius overnight and then labeled with Donkey anti-Mouse IgG (H+L) Highly Cross-Adsorbe...

          Product Specific Information

          Description: This MF20 monoclonal antibody recognizes the heavy chain of myosin II, specificially the light meromyosin portion, in cardiac and skeletal muscle of vertebrates. Myosin II is composed of two heavy chains and four light chains. The 220-kDa myosin heavy chain exists as four different isoforms due to alternative splicing. Myosins interact with actin and hydrolyze ATP to function in muscle contraction, cytokinesis, and phagocytosis.

          The MF20 has been shown to react to myosin from a variety of mammalian, avian and amphibian species, including rat, mouse, human, chicken, zebrafish, and dog.

          Applications Reported: This MF20 antibody has been reported for use in western blotting, and immunocytochemistry.

          Applications Tested: This MF20 antibody has been tested by immunocytochemistry and western blot and can be used at less than or equal to 1 µg/mL. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest.

          Purity: Greater than 90%, as determined by SDS-PAGE.

          Aggregation: Less than 10%, as determined by HPLC.

          Filtration: 0.2 µm post-manufacturing filtered.

          Target Information

          Target protein includes a fast myosin isoform expressed in skeletal muscle and has function involved in Muscle contraction.
