Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody detects rhombotin-2 (gene lmo2) in zebrafish samples and is validated for Western blot and IHC.
LMO2 (rhombotin-2) is a LIM-only transcriptional cofactor that assembles a multiprotein complex with TAL1/SCL, GATA1 and LDB1. This complex is essential for the formation of blood stem cells and red blood cells, and it also plays a role in blood vessel development. Aberrant LMO2 expression drives some T-cell acute leukemias, and zebrafish lmo2 is a common marker of early blood and endothelial cells.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.25–0.5 µg/mL (Zebrafish) |
|---|---|
| IHC (paraffin sections) | 2–5 µg/mL (Zebrafish) |
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): zebrafish head tissue, whole female zebrafish tissue, whole male zebrafish tissue.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Samples with confirmed staining (IHC): zebrafish spinal cord tissue, zebrafish kidney tissue.
Recommended antigen retrieval: heat-mediated, in TE buffer (pH 9.0); citrate buffer (pH 6.0) can be used instead.
Immunogen
Recombinant zebrafish LMO2 fragment (Met1–Val159), expressed in E. coli.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with zebrafish. UniProt places rhombotin-2 in the nucleus. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (zebrafish): During embryogenesis, expressed in hematopoietic and endothelial precursors, including the two stripes of posterior and anterior lateral plate mesoderm at the 1-somite stage that give rise to the primitive blood. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.

Customization & Add-ons: Can’t find the antibody you need—or require a custom format for your assay? We can help you source the best match or support custom antibody solutions for diverse research needs, including species and isotype selection, conjugations and labeling (e.g., HRP/AP, biotin, fluorophores), purification grade options (Protein A/G, affinity purified), formulation preferences (buffer selection, carrier-free, glycerol-free), custom concentrations and aliquoting, low-endotoxin options for cell-based work, and application-focused QC/validation support (project dependent).
