Clone 7E18 is a ZooMAb rabbit recombinant monoclonal antibody that specifically detects human Myc proto-oncogene protein (c-Myc).

GST/His-tagged recombinant fragment corresponding to 109 amino acids from the internal region of human c-Myc.

Anti-c-Myc, clone 7E18, ZooMAb, Cat. No. ZRB1003-25UL, is a recombinant Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody that specifically targets c-Myc proto-oncogene and has been tested for use in Immunocytochemistry, Immunohistochemistry, RNAi/siRNA/Gene Knockdown, and Western Blotting,

Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin) Analysis: A 1:100 dilution from a representative lot detected c-Myc in human kidney, mouse testis, and human cervical cancer tissue sections.

RNAi/siRNA/Gene Knockdown Analysis: A 1:1000 dilution from a representative lot detected c-Myc in lysate from wild-type HEK293 cells, but not in HEK293 cells with c-myc knocked out using CRISPR.

Immunocytochemistry Analysis: A 1:250 dilution from a representative lot detected Myc proto-oncogene protein in HeLa, A431, HUVEC, and NIH 3T3 cell lines.

Myc proto-oncogene protein (UniProt: P01106; also known as Class E basic helix-loop-helix protein 39, bHLHe39, Proto-oncogene c-Myc, Transcription factor p64) is encoded by the MYC (also known as BHLHE39) gene (Gene ID: 4609) in human. c-Myc is a transcription factor that binds DNA in a non-specific manner, yet also specifically recognizes the core sequence 5′-CAC[GA]TG-3′. It regulates the expression of multiple genes involved in apoptosis, cell differentiation and cell proliferation. c-Myc is shown to be critically involved in the regulation of several growth promoting signaling pathways and is considered as an immediate early response gene that is downstream of many ligand-membrane receptor complexes. Its expression is reported to be tightly regulated by several transcriptional regulatory motifs within its proximal promoter region. Phosphorylation of c-Myc by serine/threonine kinase PIM2 at serine 329 is reported to lead to its stabilization. Active c-Myc is coupled to the MAX protein via its C-terminal helix-loop-helix leucine zipper (bHLHLZ) domain (aa 413-434) and this heterodimer interacts with a number of other transcription-related proteins. In normal cells its expression and function are regulated by developmental or mitogenic signals. c-Myc mRNA has a very short half-life and in the absence of positive regulatory signals there is a significant reduction in its transcription leading to low c-Myc protein levels that does not have any proliferative drive. However, in tumor cells its levels are increased either via mutations or induction via upstream oncogenic pathways. Mutations in c-Myc gene are known to cause B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia and Burkitt lymphoma. Over-expression of c-Myc has been reported in about 40% tumors. This ZooMAb recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.
