Gene Information

human ... MYC(4609)

General description

Myc is a multifunctional, nuclear phosphoprotein that plays a role in cell cycle progression, apoptosis and cellular transformation. It functions as a transcription factor that regulates transcription of specific target genes. Mutations, overexpression, rearrangement and translocation of this gene have been associated with a variety of hematopoietic tumors, leukemias and lymphomas, including Burkitt lymphoma. There is evidence to show that alternative translation initiations from an upstream, in-frame non-AUG (CUG) and a downstream AUG start site result in the production of two isoforms with distinct N-termini. The synthesis of non-AUG initiated protein is suppressed in Burkitt′s lymphomas, suggesting its importance in the normal function of this gene.

Specificity

Anti-MyC polyclonal antibody reacts with canine, rabbit, pig, human, mouse, and rat Myc proteins.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide directed towards the N terminal region of human MYC

Application

Anti-MyC polyclonal antibody is used to tag Myc protein for detection and quantitation by Western blotting and in plasma by immunohistochemical (IHC) techniques. It is used as a probe to determine the roles of Myc in cell cycle progression, apoptosis and cellular transformation.
