Antibodies / Antibodies-Proteins

-20°C

Supplied as a liquid in PBS, pH 7.2, 0.09% sodium azide.

Nestin antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 323ca.353 amino acids from the N-terminal region of human Nestin.

Nestin is a class VI intermediate filament protein expressed predominantly in stem cells of the neural tube but absent from virtually all differentiated CNS cells. In the CNS, nestin is downregulated upon differentiation and replaced by neurofilaments. Transient expression of nestin has been postulated as a key step committing cells to the neural differentiation pathway. Nestin expression has also been observed in pancreatic hematopoietic stem cell populations.
