Product specific information Western blot analysis of MA1-014 specifically detects SOX2 protein at ~36 kda in the nucleus of human and mouse embryonal carcinoma and ips cells. Background/Target Information SOX2 is an intronless gene encoding a member of the SRY-related HMG-box (SOX) family of transcription factors involved in the regulation of embryonic development and in the determination of cell fate. The product of the SOX2 gene is required for stem-cell maintenance in the central nervous system, and also regulates gene expression in the stomach. The SOX2 gene lies within an intron of another gene called SOX2 overlapping transcript (SOX2OT). Further, SOX2 protein may act as a transcriptional activator after forming a protein complex with other proteins. Mutations in the SOX2 gene have been associated with bilateral anophthalmia, a severe form of structural eye malformation, optic nerve hypoplasia and syndromic microphthalmia.

2 Advanced Verification Data SOX2 Antibody (MA1-014) The specificity of anti-sox2 monoclonal antibody (Product # MA1-014) was demonstrated using chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP). q-pcr was used to demonstrate levels of enrichment of SOX2 at the expected loci in exon 1 or exon-2-3 of EGR1 gene but not negative site in -15kb region of the same gene in HTC-IR rat hepatoma cells treated with insulin for 10 minutes compared to those in untreated cells.

3 SOX2 Antibody (MA1-014) in IP Immunoprecipitation of Sox2 was performed on NCCIT cells. Antigen-antibody complexes were formed by incubating 500 µg of NCCIT whole cell lysate with 5 µg of a Sox2 monoclonal antibody (Product # MA1-014) overnight on a rocking platform at 4 C.

SOX2 Antibody (MA1-014) in ChIP Chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis of SOX2 was performed using cross-linked chromatin from 1x10^6 HTC-IR rat hepatoma cells treated with insulin for 0, 10, and 30 minutes. Immunoprecipitation was performed using a multiplex microplate Matrix ChIP assay (see reference for Matrix ChIP protocol: with 1.0 µl/100 µl well volume of a SOX2 monoclonal antibody (Product # MA1-014). Chromatin aliquots from ~1x10^5 cells were used per ChIP pull-down. Quantitative PCR data were done in quadruplicate using 1 µl of eluted DNA in 2 µl SYBR real-time PCR reactions containing primers to amplify -15kb upstream of the Egr1 gene or exon-1 or exon-2-3 of Egr1. PCR calibration curves were generated for each primer pair from a dilution series of sheared total genomic DNA. Quantitation of immunoprecipitated chromatin is presented as signal relative to the total amount of input chromatin. Results represent the mean +/- SEM for three experiments. A schematic representation of the rat Egr-1 locus is shown above the data where boxes represent exons (black boxes = translated regions, white boxes = untranslated regions), the zigzag line represents an intron, and the straight line represents upstream sequence. Regions amplified by Egr-1 primers are represented by black bars. Data courtesy of the Innovators Program.
