Tool Details
- Tool name: Anti-Myostatin [Myo2/1A]
- Alternate names: Growth/differentiation factor 8, GDF-8, myostatin, GDF8, MSTN
- Clone: Myo2/1A
- Tool type: Antibodies
- Tool sub-type: Primary Antibody
- Class: Monoclonal
- Conjugate: Unconjugated
- Reactivity: Human
- Host: Mouse
- Molecular weight of the target: 52 kDa
- Application: WB
- Description: Myostatin is a well-characterized negative regulator of skeletal muscle and can inhibit myogenesis and stimulate adipogenesis. Clone Myo 2/1A has been shown to have the reverse effect, up-regulate myogenesis and down-regulate adipogenesis.
- Immunogen: Recognizes the 113 amino acid carboxy-terminal fragment of Myostatin protein
- Research area: Cell signaling and signal transduction
- Myeloma used: Sp2/0-Ag14
- For Research Use Only
