Gene Information

human ... FOS(2353)

Specificity

c-fos is a 55 kDa nuclear associated protein that is rapidly induced in HL60, HeLa and NIH3T3 cells by a variety of agents. c-fos is also induced in neuronal tissue following drug induced seizures.

KNOWN SPECIES CROSS REACTIVITY: Known to cross-react with rat

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide: Met-Phe-Ser-Gly-Phe-Asn-Ala-Asp-Tyr-Glu-Ala-Ser-Ser-Ser-Arg-Cys, selected from a conserved region of mouse and human c-fos.

Application

Anti-c-Fos Antibody is a Sheep Polyclonal Antibody for detection of c-Fos also known as G0/G1 Switch Regulatory Protein 7 & has been validated in WB, ICC.
Immunoblotting: Detergent lysates were produced from HeLa and HL-60 cells stimulated to express c-fos protein. CBL 440 detects a band at 55-60 kDa on immunoblots of stimulated HeLa and HL-60 lysates.

Immunocytochemistry: CBL 440 has been used in immunocytochemistry of vibratome sections of rat brains following either surgical damage to one of the hemispheres (where CBL 440 detects c-fos and c-fos related proteins in the nuclei of neurons in the damaged hemisphere) or kainic acid treatment.

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by the end user.

It has been suggested that the proto-oncogenes c-fos and c-myc participate in the control of genetic events which lead to the establishment of prolonged functional changes in neurons. Expression of c-fos and c-myc are among the earliest genetic events induced
