<strong>FOX3</strong>/<strong>NeuN</strong> <strong>Monoclonal</strong> <strong>Antibody</strong>,<br />

<strong>Purified</strong><br />

Catalog Number: SIG-39860<br />

Available Size: 0.1 mL<br />

Specificity:<br />

Fox3 is one of a family of 3 mammalian Fox homologues. Fox was discovered in C. elegans as a gene involved in sex determination, and the<br />

name Fox is an acronym of "Feminizing locus on X". The Fox protein and its 3 mammalian homologues are all about 46kDa proteins each of<br />

which includes a central highly conserved RRM type RNA recognition motif, which corresponds to a small ~70 amino acid structure consisting of<br />

4 beta strands and two alpha-helices. Fox3 is a protein which has a function in RNA splicing and is expressed heavily and specifically in<br />

neuronal nuclei. Our antibody was raised against the N-terminal 100 amino acids of human Fox3 as expressed in and purified from E. coli. The<br />

MCA-1B7 antibody reveals strong nuclear and distal cytoplasmic staining for Fox3/<strong>NeuN</strong> and the complete absence of staining of astrocytes<br />

and other kinds of non-neuronal cells. This Fox3/<strong>NeuN</strong> antibody is therefore an excellent marker of neuronal cells.<br />

Uses:<br />

This antibody is effective in immunoblotting (WB), immunofluorescence (IF) and immunohistochemistry (IHC).<br />

Suggested Working Dilution:<br />

The optimal working dilution should be determined for each specific assay condition.<br />

• WB: 1:500- 1:1,000<br />

• IHC: 1:1,000 with either biotin based detection systems such as USA Ultra Streptavidin Detection (SIG-32250) or polymer based<br />

detection systems such as ACUITYAdvanced Biotin Free Polymer Detection (SIG-32902).<br />

Tissue Sections: Formalin Fixed Paraffin Embedded sections, Frozen sections<br />

Pre-treatment: not required<br />

Incubation: 60min at room temperature<br />

• ICC: 1:500- 1:1,000<br />

Notes:<br />

Positive Control: Brain tissue<br />

Predicted MW: 46 & 48 kDa<br />

<strong>FOX3</strong>/<strong>NeuN</strong> <strong>Monoclonal</strong> <strong>Antibody</strong>, <strong>Purified</strong><br />

Catalog Number: SIG-39860<br />

Storage:<br />

Store at -20°C. Upon initial thawing, apportion into working aliquots and store at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles to prevent denaturing<br />

the antibody. For long-term storage, keep the antibody at -80°C.<br />
