Product Overview
Clone FHI-13 is a rabbit monoclonal antibody that recognizes cytochrome c oxidase subunit 2 (gene MT-CO2) in human samples and is validated for Western blot, IHC, ICC/IF, immunoprecipitation and flow cytometry. The predicted molecular weight is 25.6 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 21 kDa.
Cytochrome c oxidase subunit 2 (MT-CO2, COX2) is a mitochondrial DNA-encoded core subunit of complex IV of the respiratory chain. It contains the copper A center that accepts electrons from cytochrome c and passes them to subunit 1, where oxygen is reduced to water.

Samples with a confirmed band (WB): K562 cells.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Samples with confirmed staining (IHC): human liver tissue.
Recommended antigen retrieval: heat-mediated, in TE buffer (pH 9.0); citrate buffer (pH 6.0) can be used instead.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide based on the sequence of human MTCO2.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt places cytochrome c oxidase subunit 2 in the mitochondrion inner membrane. 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).
