Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody recognizes protein Mdm4 in human samples and is validated for Western blot and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 54.9 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 55 kDa.
MDM4 (also called MDMX) is a close relative of MDM2 that binds p53 and inhibits its transcriptional activity. MDM4 lacks strong ligase activity of its own but forms heterodimers with MDM2 that enhance p53 degradation. It is overexpressed in a number of cancers and is studied as a regulator of p53 and a potential cancer target.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.25–0.5 µg/mL (Human) |
|---|---|
| ELISA | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL |
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human HeLa cells, human A549 cells, human A431 cells, human MCF-7 cells.
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.
Immunogen
Recombinant human MDMX/MDM4 fragment (Ala8–Ala490), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt places protein Mdm4 in the nucleus and cytoplasm. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Expressed in all tissues tested with high levels in thymus. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
