MAGED4, originally termed MAGEE1, is a member of MAGE (Melanoma associated antigen) super-family identified by serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) technique. Three isoforms (MAGED4a, b, and c) were produced by alternative splice in the process of gene transcription. This antibody raised against 1-350 aa of human MAGED4 protein detects a band of 90-100 kDa, which is larger than the calculated molecular weight. The slower electrophoretic mobility may be due to abnormal spatial conformation of MAGED4 protein caused by abundance of proline in composition.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eResearch relevance and current trends\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eComparative expression profiling across cell types, tissues, or perturbations (e.g., drug treatment, genetic editing, or differentiation).\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSubcellular localization and trafficking studies, including co-localization with pathway markers in microscopy-based assays.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIntegration of protein-level measurements with transcriptomics or proteomics to relate abundance to regulation and phenotype.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch2\u003eCommon research applications\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eWestern blotting: researchers commonly compare relative signal levels across conditions and use appropriate negative\/positive controls for interpretation.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eImmunohistochemistry: researchers commonly compare relative signal levels across conditions and use appropriate negative\/positive controls for interpretation.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eImmunofluorescence: researchers commonly compare relative signal levels across conditions and use appropriate negative\/positive controls for interpretation.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFlow cytometry: researchers commonly compare relative signal levels across conditions and use appropriate negative\/positive controls for interpretation.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eELISA: researchers commonly compare relative signal levels across conditions and use appropriate negative\/positive controls for interpretation.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eInterpretation should account for antibody-dependent factors such as epitope accessibility, isoforms, and sample preparation differences across workflows.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eNotes for experimental interpretation\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIsoforms and PTMs:\u003c\/strong\u003e many targets have multiple isoforms and post-translational modifications that can shift apparent signal or localization; interpret bands\/signals accordingly.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEpitope context:\u003c\/strong\u003e binding can depend on protein conformation and sample processing; region information in the title\/immunogen can help anticipate what may be detected.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecies differences:\u003c\/strong\u003e predicted or validated reactivity may vary by ortholog sequence and sample context; confirm in your model system.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eControl concepts:\u003c\/strong\u003e include negative controls (no-primary\/isotype), and where possible genetic controls (KO\/KD) or independent antibodies to strengthen conclusions.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c!-- Sources (internal): - UniProtKB entry Q96JG8 — UniProt — https:\/\/www.uniprot.org\/uniprotkb\/Q96JG8 - Gene search: MAGED4 — NCBI Gene — https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/gene\/?term=MAGED4 - Ensembl search: MAGED4 — Ensembl — https:\/\/www.ensembl.org\/Multi\/Search\/Results?q=MAGED4 - PubMed search: MAGED4 antibody — PubMed — https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/?term=MAGED4+antibody - Reactome search: MAGED4 — Reactome — https:\/\/reactome.org\/content\/query?q=MAGED4 --\u003e","brand":"NSJ Bioreagents","offers":[{"title":"0.5mg\/ml if reconstituted with 0.2ml sterile DI water \/ 100 ug","offer_id":53046479946093,"sku":"RQ8453","price":449.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7424\/7277\/files\/get_image_38de4824-502e-4f20-b6dc-65989825dafe.jpg?v=1772000856","url":"https:\/\/www.ebiohippo.com\/products\/maged4-antibody-melanoma-associated-antigen-d4-bha17130010","provider":"BioHippo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
