RNA-Binding Protein Musashi Homolog 1 (MSI1) Antibody

Primary Antibodies

Aliquot and store at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

This gene encodes a protein containing two conserved tandem RNA recognition motifs. Similar proteins in other species function as RNA-binding proteins and play central roles in posttranscriptional gene regulation. Expression of this gene has been correlated with the grade of the malignancy and proliferative activity in gliomas and melanomas.Musashi-1 is frequently used as a marker for proliferating neural precursor cells, it is also expressed in epithelial stem cells including intestinal and mammary gland stem cells.Tissue specificity: Detected in fetal kidney, brain, liver and lung, and in adult brain and pancreas. Detected in hepatoma cell lines.

Ascitic fluid containing 0.03% sodium azide.
