OLIG2 Antibody

OLIG2 is a basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor which is expressed in oligodendroglial tumors of the brain. OLIG2 is an essential regulator of ventral neuroectodermal progenitor cell fate. It is associated with T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia due to a chromosomal translocation t (14;21) (q11.2; q22) . OLIG2 might play a role in learning deficits associated with Down syndrome.This gene encodes a basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor which is expressed in oligodendroglial tumors of the brain. The protein is an essential regulator of ventral neuroectodermal progenitor cell fate. The gene is involved in a chromosomal translocation t (14;21) (q11.2; q22) associated with T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Its chromosomal location is within a region of chromosome 21 which has been suggested to play a role in learning deficits associated with Down syndrome.

For short periods of storage (days) store at 4˚ C. For longer periods of storage, store OLIG2 antibody at -20˚ C. As with any antibody avoid repeat freeze-thaw cycles.

OLIG2 antibody can be used for detection of OLIG2 by ELISA at 1:62500. OLIG2 antibody can be used for detection of OLIG2 by western blot at 1 μ g/mL, and HRP conjugated secondary antibody should be diluted 1:50,000 - 100,000.
