YBX2 Antibody

YBX2 is a member of the Y box multigene family of proteins; it contains the cold shock domain that is highly conserved among all Y box proteins and four basic/aromatic islands. By Northern blotting and immunoblotting, MSY2 appears to be a germ cell-specific protein in the testis. In the ovary, MSY2 is present exclusively in diplotene-stage and mature oocytes. MSY2 is maternally inherited in the one-cell-stage embryo but is not detected in the late two-cell-stage embryo. This loss of MSY2 is coincident with the bulk degradation of maternal mRNAs in the two-cell embryo. YBX2 is a germ-cell specific member of the vertebrate Y box family of nucleic acid-binding proteins (Gu et al., 1998 [PubMed 9780336]; Tekur et al., 1999 [PubMed 10100484]) .

For short periods of storage (days) store at 4˚ C. For longer periods of storage, store YBX2 antibody at -20˚ C. As with any antibody avoid repeat freeze-thaw cycles.

YBX2 antibody can be used for detection of YBX2 by ELISA at 1:1562500. YBX2 antibody can be used for detection of YBX2 by western blot at 1 μ g/mL, and HRP conjugated secondary antibody should be diluted 1:50,000 - 100,000.
