Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets myosin-binding protein C, cardiac-type (gene MYBPC3) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for ELISA, IHC and Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 140.8 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 160 kDa.
Cardiac myosin-binding protein C (MYBPC3) is a thick filament protein in the C-zone of heart sarcomeres. It binds myosin and actin and tunes cross-bridge formation, with phosphorylation relieving its brake on contraction. MYBPC3 mutations are among the most common causes of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and circulating cMyBP-C is studied as a marker of cardiac injury.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL |
|---|---|
| IHC (paraffin sections) | 0.5–1 µg/mL |
| ELISA | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL |
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): rat heart tissue, mouse heart 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, 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 1:10000, ECL detection.
Samples with confirmed staining (IHC): rat heart tissue, human lung cancer tissue, human mammary cancer tissue, human rectal 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 citrate buffer (pH 6).
Immunogen
Recombinant human MYBPC3 fragment (Gln1070–His1123), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
