Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody recognizes max-binding protein MNT in human samples and is validated for Western blot, IHC, ICC/IF and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 62.3 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 62 kDa.
MNT is a basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper transcriptional repressor of the Myc/Max network. It forms heterodimers with MAX and binds E-box sequences, where it opposes MYC-driven gene activation, and it is studied as a regulator of cell proliferation and MYC function.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.25–0.5 µg/mL (Human) |
|---|---|
| IHC (paraffin sections) | 0.5–1 µg/mL (Human) |
| Immunocytochemistry / Immunofluorescence | 2 µg/mL (Human) |
| ELISA | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL |
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human HeLa cells, human Raji cells, human A549 cells, human HEK293 cells, human K562 cells, human PC-3 cells, human Caco-2 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, 50 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): human liver cancer 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).
Samples with confirmed staining (ICC/IF): A549 cells.
Immunogen
Recombinant human MNT fragment (His381–Asn564), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt places max-binding protein MNT in the nucleus. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.

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).
