Description

General description

MILI, MIWI, and MIWI2 belong to the Piwi family of proteins. piRNAs and Piwi proteins are implicated in transposon control and are linked to transposon methylation in mammals. MILI, in particular, directly binds with piRNAs in the cytoplasm and is required for PIWIL4/MIWI2 nuclear localization and association with secondary piRNAs antisense. MILI plays an essential role in spermatogenesis, meiotic differentiation of spermatocytes, germ cell differentiation and in self-renewal of spermatogonial stem cells.

Immunogen

KLH-conjugated linear peptide corresponding to mouse MILI.

Application

Anti-MILI Antibody is a Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody for detection of MILI also known as Piwi-like protein 2 & has been validated in WB, ICC, IHC & IP.

Immunocytochemistry Analysis: A representative lot was used by an independent laboratory in male primordial germ cells. (Aravin, A.A., et al. (2008). Mol Cell. 31(6):785-799.)

Immunohistochemistry Fluoresence Analysis: A representative lot was used by an independent laboratory in embyronic testis cross sections. (Vagin, W., et al. (2009). Genes Dev. 23(15):1749-1762.)

Immunoprecipitation Analysis: A representative lot was used by an independent laboratory. (Aravin, A.A., et al. (2007). Science. 316(5825):744-747.)
