Aufreinigung
Maelstrom Antibody is affinity chromatography purified via peptide column.
Immunogen
Maelstrom antibody was raised against a 16 amino acid synthetic peptide near the carboxy terminus of human Maelstrom. The immunogen is located within amino acids 30 - 80 of Maelstrom.
Maelstrom antibody can be used for detection of Maelstrom by Western blot at 1 μ,g/mL. Antibody can also be used for immunocytochemistry starting at 5 μ,g/mL. For immunofluorescence start at 20 μ,g/mL.
Antibody validated: Western Blot in human samples, Immunocytochemistry in human samples and Immunofluorescence in human samples. All other applications and species not yet tested.

Maelstrom Antibody: The mammalian homolog of the Drosophila protein Maelstrom is expressed in the male germline and localizes to the sex body in spermatocytes and the chromatoid body in round spermatids. Similar to its expression in Drosophila, Maelstrom is a component of nuages, a germ-cell specific organelle and is thought to be essential for spermatogenesis and transposon repression during meiosis. In humans, Maelstrom has been found to be expressed only in the testis and in various cancer cell lines. Treatment of these cell lines with the demethylating agent 5'-Aza-2-Deoxycytidine significantly upregulated Maelstrom levels, indicating that its expression is regulated by DNA methylation.
