Product Specifications

Immunogen

Antibody was raised against a 15 amino acid peptide near the amino terminus of human OLIG2. The immunogen is located within amino acids 80 - 130 of OLIG2. Amino Acid Squence: STKKDKKQMTEPELQ

Specificity

It is predicted to not cross-react with other members of the OLIG family of proteins. At least three isoforms of OLIG2 are known to exist; this antibody will detect all three isoforms.

Clonality

Polyclonal

Host

Rabbit

Isotype

IgG

Theoretical MW

37 kDa.
Disclaimer note: The observed molecular weight of the protein may vary from the listed predicted molecular weight due to post translational modifications, post translation cleavages, relative charges, and other experimental factors.

Background: Olig2

Olig2 is a transcription factor which is required for oligodendrocyte and motor neuron specification in the spinal cord, as well as for the development of somatic motor neurons in the hindbrain. OIlig2 is expressed in the ventral spinal cord as early as 9.5 dpc and is scattered in the mantle zone, likely corresponding to oligodendrocyte progenitors migrating out from their site of origin. (Arnett et al., 2004) From 10.5 through 14.5 dpc, Olig2 is expressed in numerous cells in the ventricular and subventricular zones of the lateral and medial ganglionic eminences, suggesting that expression might not be limited to the oligodendrocytic lineage. Olig2 has further been shown to be critical in the proliferation of malignant glioma in brain tumors (Ligon et al., 2007).
