General description

All ChIPAb+ antibodies are individually validated for chromatin precipitation, every lot, every time. Each ChIPAb+ antibody set includes control primers (tested every lot by qPCR) to biologically validate your IP results in a locus-specific context. The qPCR protocol and primer sequences are provided, allowing researchers to validate ChIP protocols when using our antibody in their chromatin context. Each set also includes a negative control antibody to ensure specificity of the ChIP reaction.
The ChIPAb+ Sox-2, clone 6F1.2 antibody/primer set includes the Sox-2, clone 6F1.2 antibody, a negative control antibody (purified mouse IgG), and qPCR primers which amplify a 95 bp region within the promoter of the human nanog gene. The Sox-2, clone 6F1.2 antibody and negative control antibodies are supplied in a scalable "per ChIP" reaction size and can be used to functionally validate the precipitation of Sox-2-associated chromatin.

Sox-2 plays a key role in embryonic stem cell development, and has been shown to help stem cells maintain pluripotent potential. It has also been shown to be associated with uncommitted dividing stem cell and precursor cells of the developing CNS.

Other Notes

Concentration: Please refer to the Certificate of Analysis for the lot-specific concentration.

Packaging

25 assays per set. Recommended use: ~4 µg antibody per chromatin immunoprecipitation (dependent upon biological context).

Physical form

Format: Purified

Quality

Chromatin Immunoprecipitation:
Sonicated chromatin prepared from Ntera 2 cells (3 X 10⁶ cell equivalents per IP) were subjected to chromatin immunoprecipitation using 4 µg of either a normal mouse IgG, or Anti-Sox-2, clone 6F1.2 antibody and the Magna ChIP^® G Kit (Cat. No. 17-611). Successful immunoprecipitation of Sox-2-associated DNA fragments was verified by qPCR using ChIP Primers, nanog promoter (Figure 1).
Please refer to the EZ-Magna ChIP™ G (Cat. No. 17-409) or EZ-ChIP™ (Cat. No. 17-371) protocol for experimental details.

Specificity

Not tested in other species.

Recognizes Sox-2, MW: ~34 kDa.

Storage and Stability

Stable for 1 year at -20°C from date of receipt. Handling Recommendations: Upon first thaw, and prior to removing the cap, centrifuge the vial and gently mix the solution. Aliquot into microcentrifuge tubes and store at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles, which may damage IgG and affect product performance.
