Background: Background: Anti-BORIS antibody is designed, produced, and validated as part of a collaboration with the National Cancer Institute (NCI) and is suitable for Cancer, Immunology and Nuclear Signaling research. BORIS (Brother of the Regulator of Imprinted Sites) also known as  CCCTC-binding factor-like protein, is  normally only expressed in the testis and expressed in a mutually exclusive manner with CTCF during male germ cell development.  However, previous studies have shown that BORIS is abnormally activated in a wide range of human cancers.  Expression of BORIS in normally BORIS-negative cells promotes cell growth that may lead to transformation.  BORIS maps to the cancer-associated amplification region thought to contain an oncogene or dominant-immortalizing gene. BORIS is a candidate protein for the epigenetic reprogramming factor acting in the male germ line.  BORIS is found in both the nucleus and cytoplasm. BORIS antibody can be used to investigate epigenetic regulation.
