Mouse monoclonal [F5D] to MyogeninMyogenin is a member of a family of myogenic regulatory genes, which includes MyoD, myf5 and MRF4. These genes encode a set of transcription factors, which are essential for muscle development. Transfection of myogenin into multipotential mesodermal cells have been shown to convert the mesodermal cells to myoblasts. Expression of myogenin is restricted to cells of skeletal muscle origin. It is therefore a useful marker for tumors of the muscle lineage, being strongly expressed in alveolar rhabdomyosarcomas.
Immunogen
BALB / C mice were injected with recombinant protein containing rat myogenin amino acid 30 - 224.

This antibody may be diluted to a titer of 1:50-1:100 in an ABC method. We suggest an incubation period of 30 minutes at room temperature. Formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue sections require high temperature antigen unmasking with 10 mM citrate buffer, pH 6.0 prior to immunostaining. Optimal dilutions / concentrations should be determined by the end user.:
