Homeobox protein Nanog (UniProt: Q9H9S0; Homeobox transcription factor Nanog, hNanog) is encoded by the NANOG gene (Gene ID: 79923) in human. Nanog is a transcription factor that is involved in the self-renewal of embryonic stem cells (ES) and is a critical factor for the maintenance of the undifferentiated state of pluripotent cells. Along with OCT4 and Sox2 it is responsible for maintaining ES cells in an undifferentiated state. It is expressed in embryonic stem (ES) and carcinoma cells and its expression is observed in inner cell mass (ICM) of the blastocyst and gonocytes between 14 and 19 weeks of gestation. Its expression decreases with ES differentiation. Nanog can autorepress its own expression in differentiating ES cells by binding to its own promoter following interaction with ZNF281/ZFP281, leading to recruitment of the NuRD complex and subsequent repression of expression. Overexpression of Nanog in ES cells maintains specific differentiation, however, its overexpression in cancer stem cells is reported to inhibit apoptosis. Nanog together with OCT4 can activate SNAIL2 and promote metastasis and the EMT phenotype in cancer cells. Nanog can be phosphorylated on serine 52, 71, and 78 and this can regulate its stability. Suppression of MEK/ERKs signaling is shown to enhance Nanog transactivation to inhibit ES cell differentiation. This ZooMAb recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.
