Beschreibung

General description

Menin (UniProt O00255) is a nuclear protein encoded by the MEN1 gene (also known as MEAI, SCG2) (Gene ID 4221) in human. MEN1 is a tumor suppressor gene frequently mutated in the familial multiple endocrine neoplasia type I (MEN-1) cancer syndrome characterized by tumors in multiple endocrine organs including the parathyroid, pancreatic islets, and the pituitary. Menin mediates cell proliferation and differentiation actions of transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) ligand family members. Menin is reported to associate with histone methyltransferases (HMT) MLL1 (KMT2A) and MLL4 (KMT2B) to form menin-HMT complexes in both human and murine model systems. In addition, menin is also shown to be involved in DNA repair with FANCD2.

Application

Research Category
Apoptosis & Cancer

Research Sub Category
Apoptosis - Additional

This Anti-Menin/MEN1 Antibody is validated for use in Western Blotting for the detection of Menin/MEN1 .

Western Blotting Analysis: A representative lot detected endogenous Menin in TGP61 nuclear extract, as well as exogenously expressed Menin in transfected NIH3T3 cells (Jin, S., et al. (2003). Cancer Res. 63(14):4204-4210).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Expected to react with all three spliced variants: Isoform 1 (Long), Isoform 2 (Short), and Isoform 3.

Physical form

Rabbit polyclonal serum with 0.05% sodium azide.

Unpurified

Preparation Note

Stable for 1 year at -20°C from date of receipt.
Handling Recommendations: Upon receipt and prior to removing the cap, centrifuge the vial and gently mix the solution. Aliquot into microcentrifuge tubes and store at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles, which may damage IgG and affect product performance.

Analysis Note

Evaluated by Western Blotting in Tamoxifen treated MEF 545T and MEF 545D cell lysate.

Western Blotting Analysis: A 1:20,000 dilution of this antibody detected Menin/MEN1 in 10 µg of Tamoxifen treated MEF 545T and MEF 545D cell lysate.
