Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets protein NDRG4 in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot, ICC/IF, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 38.5 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 37 kDa.
NDRG4 is a member of the N-myc downstream-regulated gene family expressed mainly in brain and heart. It helps maintain normal BDNF levels in the brain, which supports spatial learning and resistance to ischemic injury, and it modulates growth factor-driven ERK signaling.

Immunogen
Recombinant human NDRG4 fragment (Met1–Arg226), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt places protein NDRG4 in the cytoplasm. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Expressed predominantly in brain and heart (at protein level). The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
