Protocol
Available protocols: Immunofluorescence (Frozen)
Specificity / Sensitivity
NeuN (D4G4O) Mouse Chimeric Monoclonal Antibody recognizes endogenous levels of total NeuN protein.
Species Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat, Monkey
Source / Purification
This recombinant chimeric antibody is engineered from NeuN (D4G4O) XP Rabbit mAb #24307 according to animal-free protocols. The chimeric antibody retains its antigen-binding Fab regions from the original rabbit monoclonal antibody but contains a mouse-derived Fc domain. When multiplexing, Fc-directed rabbit secondaries are required to detect rabbit-host primary antibodies. The parent antibody, NeuN (D4G4O) XP Rabbit mAb #24307, is produced by immunizing animals with a recombinant protein corresponding to human NeuN protein.
Background
Neuronal nuclei (NeuN, Fox-3, RBFOX3) is a nuclear protein expressed in most post-mitotic neurons of the central and peripheral nervous systems. NeuN is not detected in Purkinje cells, sympathetic ganglion cells, Cajal-Retzius cells, INL retinal cells, inferior olivary, or dentate nucleus neurons (1). This neuronal protein was originally identified by immunoreactivity with a monoclonal antibody also called NeuN. Using MS analysis, NeuN was later identified as the gene product. Fox-3 contains an RNA recognition motif and functions as a splicing regulator (2). Fox-3 regulates alternative splicing of NumB, promoting neuronal differentiation during development (3).
