Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets basic leucine zipper transcriptional factor ATF-like 2 (gene Batf2) in mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot, IHC and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 29.7 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 25 kDa.
BATF2, studied here in mouse, is a basic leucine zipper transcription factor of the AP-1 family. It is induced by interferons and helps control differentiation of immune cell lineages, including dendritic cells and macrophages, and it has been reported to suppress expression of the growth-promoting gene CCN1.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.25–0.5 µg/mL (Mouse, Rat) |
|---|---|
| IHC (paraffin sections) | 2–5 µg/mL (Mouse, Rat) |
| ELISA | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL |
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): rat C6 cells, rat brain tissue, mouse brain tissue, mouse kidney tissue.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Conditions in the example images (WB): 5–20% gradient SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, 30 µg lysate per lane, transfer to nitrocellulose membrane, blocking in 5% non-fat milk, primary antibody at 0.5 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C, HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at 1:5000, ECL detection.
Samples with confirmed staining (IHC): mouse kidney tissue, rat kidney tissue.
Recommended antigen retrieval: heat-mediated, in TE buffer (pH 9.0); citrate buffer (pH 6.0) can be used instead.
Conditions in the example images (IHC): heat-mediated antigen retrieval in EDTA buffer (pH 8.0).
Immunogen
Recombinant mouse Batf2 fragment (Met1–Leu138), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with mouse and rat. UniProt places basic leucine zipper transcriptional factor ATF-like 2 in the nucleus. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
