Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody recognizes transcription factor Ovo-like 2 (gene OVOL2) in human samples and is validated for Western blot, ICC/IF, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 30.4 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 37 kDa.
OVOL2 is a zinc-finger transcriptional repressor that helps epithelial cells keep their identity. It opposes epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition largely by silencing ZEB1, restrains keratinocyte proliferation through MYC and NOTCH1, and also influences brown fat thermogenesis and adipocyte formation.

Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt places transcription factor Ovo-like 2 in the nucleus. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Expressed in testis, ovary, heart and skeletal muscle. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
