Overview
This is a monoclonal anti-POU5F1 antibody raised in Mouse, with confirmed utility in ELISA, WB, ICC, FC. It is designed to detect POU5F1 protein in Human and supports researchers working in epigenetics and nuclear signaling contexts.
Key elements and design rationale
- Immunogen: Recombinant full length protein (352aa) of mouse POU5F1 — determines the epitope region; confirm compatibility with sample preparation and expected post-translational modifications.
- Host species (Mouse): Requires anti-mouse-IgG secondary reagents for indirect detection.
- Monoclonal format: Single-epitope binding provides high specificity and lot-to-lot reproducibility. Confirm epitope accessibility under your assay conditions.
- Isotype (IgG1): Matched secondary antibodies and isotype controls required. Compatible with standard Protein A/G purification workflows.
- Purification (Antigen affinity purification): Enriches for specific immunoglobulin classes; reduces non-specific background vs. crude antisera.
Biological background
POU5F1 (also referred to as POU domain, class 5, transcription factor 1 octamer-binding protein 3 octamer-binding protein 4 POU domain transcription factor OCT4 octamer-binding transcription factor 3 octamer-binding transcription factor-3 POU-type homeodoma) is a protein target studied in Human systems. Expression, subcellular localization, and post-translational modifications vary across cell types and disease states — factors critical to antibody-based detection design. Consult UniProt, NCBI Gene, and primary literature for current annotation of POU5F1 biology in epigenetics and nuclear signaling.
Common research applications
- ELISA: Quantification of soluble target in biological fluids or culture supernatants. Ensure samples are within the linear detection range.
- WB: Confirms target molecular weight and distinguishes isoforms under denaturing conditions.
- ICC: Subcellular localization in fixed cells or tissue sections; fixation and permeabilization conditions affect epitope accessibility.
- FC: Applicable for FC-based detection; refer to product documentation for optimized conditions.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Isotype controls: Use an isotype-matched (IgG1 from Mouse) control at equivalent concentration to assess non-specific background.
- Cross-reactivity: Confirm the clone does not cross-react with related family members under your assay conditions.
- Matrix effects: Sample matrix can affect performance; pilot dilution linearity and spike-recovery experiments are advised for quantitative studies.
- Species reactivity: Confirmed for Human. Extrapolation to untested species requires empirical validation.

POU5F1 is a protein target in Human biology. This monoclonal antibody raised in Mouse is designed to detect POU5F1 in ELISA, WB, ICC, FC applications, with IgG1 isotype.
Reported reactive against Human. Immunogen derived from Human. Cross-reactivity with other species should not be assumed without documented data or empirical testing.
Reported for ELISA, WB, ICC, FC. Each format requires independent dilution optimization and appropriate controls. Unlisted applications require empirical testing.
This non-conjugated IgG1 antibody requires a compatible secondary. Select anti-mouse IgG secondary conjugated to your preferred reporter (HRP, AP, fluorophore, or biotin), matched to IgG1.
(1) Isotype control — IgG1 from Mouse at matching concentration; (2) Positive control — known POU5F1-expressing cell/tissue; (3) Negative control — knockdown/knockout sample for specificity; (4) Dilution linearity — verify proportional signal decrease in your matrix.
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).
