Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets transcription factor castor in Fruit fly samples.
In Drosophila, Castor (cas) is a zinc-finger transcription factor expressed late in the temporal sequence of neuroblast identity factors (Hunchback, Krüppel, Pdm, Castor). It helps specify which neurons are produced at later stages of central nervous system development, and it is a classic model for studying neural temporal patterning.

Customization & Add-ons: Can’t find the antibody you need—or require a custom format for your assay? We can help you source the best match or support custom antibody solutions for diverse research needs, including species and isotype selection, conjugations and labeling (e.g., HRP/AP, biotin, fluorophores), purification grade options (Protein A/G, affinity purified), formulation preferences (buffer selection, carrier-free, glycerol-free), custom concentrations and aliquoting, low-endotoxin options for cell-based work, and application-focused QC/validation support (project dependent).
