Product Specific Information
MA5-14845 targets Oct-4A in FACS, ICC, and WB applications and shows reactivity with Human, and Murine samples.
The MA5-14845 immunogen is recombinant protein specific to the amino terminus of human Oct-4A.
MA5-14845 detects Oct-4A which has a predicted molecular weight of approximately 45 kDa.
General Information
This gene encodes a transcription factor containing a POU homeodomain. This transcription factor plays a role in embryonic development, especially during early embryogenesis, and it is necessary for embryonic stem cell pluripotency. A translocation of this gene with the Ewing's sarcoma gene, t(6;22)(p21;q12), has been linked to tumor formation. Alternative splicing, as well as usage of alternative translation initiation codons, results in multiple isoforms, one of which initiates at a non-AUG (CUG) start codon. Related pseudogenes have been identified on chromosomes 1, 3, 8, 10, and 12.
