General description

c-fos is a member of a family of immediate early gene (IEG) transcription factors (other members include Jun and Egr-1) also identified as proto-oncogenes. The basal expression of c-fos and other IEGs is typically low but increases relatively quickly and often dramatically (15-30 min for mRNA; 30-60 min for protein) in response to changes in cellular activity typically caused by external stimuli, such as stress or neuronal activation. Thus, these IEGs are being used to indicate specific activity driven cellular activation including the identification of neurons activated by various growth factors, neuroactive drugs, and correlated changes in behavioral or physiological states.

Specificity

This antibody recognizes the ~55 kDa c-Fos and ~62 kDa v-Fos proteins.

Immunogen

Linear peptide corresponding to human c-Fos.

Application

Anti-c-Fos Antibody, clone 2G9C3 is a Mouse Monoclonal Antibody for detection of c-Fos also known as Proto-oncogene c-Fos, Cellular oncogene fos & has been validated in WB, ICC.
Immunocytochemistry Analysis: A representative lot detected c-Fos in schwann cells. (Lafarga, M., et al. (2002). Molecular Biology of the Cell. 13:2771–2782.)

Quality

Evaluated by Western Blot in HeLa cell lysate.

Western Blot Analysis: 0.5 µg/mL of this antibody detected c-Fos on 10 µg of HeLa cell lysate.

Target description

~55/62 kDa observed. This antibody recognizes the ~55 kDa c-Fos and ~62 kDa v-Fos proteins. The calculated molecular wieght is 46 kDa; however, c-Fos has been observed at ~55 kDa in western blots. (Assim, M., et al. (2010). Journal of Biological Chemistry. 285(26):20343–20357.)
