Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets transcription factor SOX-5 (gene SOX5) in human, mouse, pig and rat samples and is validated for Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 84.0 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 84 kDa.
Transcription factor SOX-5 (SOX5) is a SoxD group HMG-box factor that, together with SOX6, cooperates with SOX9 at cartilage-specific enhancers. This SOX trio drives chondrocyte differentiation and expression of cartilage matrix genes such as COL2A1 and aggrecan, making SOX5 important in skeletal development research.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL (Human, Mouse, Rat, Pig) |
|---|
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): rat liver tissue, rat testis tissue, rat brain tissue, HeLa cells, A549 cells, All lanes: pig adipose cells, mouse spleen tissue, mouse thymus 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, 40 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 1:5000, ECL detection.
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide from the C-terminal region of human SOX5. It differs from the mouse sequence at two residues.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse, pig and rat. UniProt places transcription factor SOX-5 in the nucleus. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
