Menin, encoded by the MEN1 gene, functions as a critical tumor suppressor and epigenetic regulator with far-reaching implications in cancer biology and nuclear signaling research. This scaffold protein participates in diverse cellular processes by interacting with transcription factors, chromatin-modifying complexes, and DNA repair machinery. Loss-of-function mutations in MEN1 drive multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 syndrome, while emerging evidence implicates menin in hematological malignancies and solid tumors, making it an increasingly important therapeutic target.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody, clone 8G11, offers the reproducibility and consistency that demanding research applications require. Because recombinant antibodies are produced from defined sequences rather than hybridoma supernatants, you can expect identical performance across lots, eliminating the variability that can compromise longitudinal studies or multi-site collaborations. The rabbit IgG format, raised against a synthetic peptide derived from human menin, provides high specificity for your target.
Validation studies demonstrate reliable detection of human menin across multiple cell line models. Western blot analysis successfully identified the protein in PC-3 prostate cancer cells, MCF-7 breast cancer cells, and HEK293 cells at dilutions ranging from 1:500 to 1:5000, giving you flexibility to optimize for your specific experimental conditions. The observed band at approximately 75 kDa runs slightly higher than the predicted molecular weights of 64-69 kDa, a shift commonly attributable to post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation or sumoylation that are well-documented for menin.
Whether you are investigating epigenetic mechanisms, characterizing tumor suppressor pathways, or exploring menin's role in transcriptional regulation, this antibody provides a dependable tool for advancing your cancer and nuclear signaling research.
