Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody recognizes transcription factor SOX-10 (gene SOX10) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for IHC and Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 49.9 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 60 kDa.
Transcription factor SOX-10 (SOX10) is an HMG-box transcription factor central to neural crest derivatives and glial cells. It drives the myelination program in oligodendrocytes, including induction of MYRF and myelin genes, and together with PAX3 activates MITF in melanocytes, so SOX10 is a widely used marker for oligodendrocytes, Schwann cells and melanocytic cells.

Immunogen
Synthetic peptide from the middle region of human SOX10. Sequence identity with the mouse and rat orthologs: 97.1%.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt places transcription factor SOX-10 in the cytoplasm, nucleus and mitochondrion outer membrane. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Expressed in fetal brain and in adult brain, heart, small intestine and colon. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
