Overview
Oligodendrocyte transcription factor 2 Antibody / OLIG2 is an antibody targeting Oligodendrocyte. Host: Rabbit. Monoclonal. Clone: OLIG2/9995R. Format: Purified. Applications: IHC-P.
Key elements and design rationale
- Target: Oligodendrocyte.
- Immunogen: A portion of amino acids 1-200 from human OLIG2 protein was used as the immunogen for the Oligodendrocyte transcription….
- Species reactivity: Human.
- Localization: Nucleus, Cytoplasm.
- Conjugate: Unconjugated (no label listed).
Biological background (from provided description)
Olig2, a basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor, is involved in oligo-dendroglial specification. Olig2 expression has been reported in most glial tumors, such as oligodendrogliomas and astrocytomas. Although more than half of glioblastomas are positive for Olig2, expression is very weak in terms of both percentage of labeled cells and intensity.
Common research applications
- IHC: tissue distribution assessment; interpret with matched controls.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Account for isoforms, paralogs, and post-translational modifications when interpreting signal.
- Support specificity with biological controls (e.g., KO/KD where available) and technical controls (e.g., secondary-only/isotype).
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).
