Concentration Definition: by UV absorbance at 280 nm
Immunogen
This affinity purified antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide corresponding aa 9-26 of human BORIS protein.
This affinity purified antibody has been tested for use in ELISA and by western blot. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. Expect a predominant band approximately 75 kDa in size corresponding to BORIS by western blotting in the appropriate cell lysate or extract.

Background
This antibody is designed, produced, 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.
