GCNF (Germ Cell Nuclear Factor), also known as NR6A1 (Nuclear Receptor Subfamily 6 Group A member), is an orphan member of the nuclear receptor gene superfamily. It has been shown to be expressed in the nervous system during development and during specific stages in maturing germ cells of the ovary and testis in the adult, and has probable roles in ametogenesis, neurogenesis, and normal embryonic development during gastrulation. Inactivation of GCNF in mouse results in abnormal posterior development, impaired midbrain development, insufficient closure of the neural tube, and eventual embryonic death. GCNF has been shown to be a repressor of OCT-4 and of the protamine genes and plays a critical role in the control of gene expression during embryogenesis and spermatogenesis.

Storage and Stability:
Store product at 4°C if to be used immediately within two weeks. For long-term storage, aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing and store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable at -20°C for 12 months after receipt. Dilute required amount only prior to immediate use. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.  For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. 

Note: Applications are based on unconjugated antibody.
