WT1, the Wilms tumor protein, serves as a critical transcription factor involved in urogenital development and has emerged as an important marker in cancer research. Originally identified through its role in Wilms tumor, a pediatric kidney malignancy, WT1 is now recognized for its aberrant expression in various adult cancers, including leukemias and solid tumors, making it a valuable target for both diagnostic and therapeutic investigations.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody, clone 5F2, offers researchers the reproducibility advantages inherent to recombinant technology. Because the antibody sequence is defined and production occurs through controlled expression systems, you can expect consistent performance across experiments and over time, eliminating the lot-to-lot variability that can complicate long-term studies or multi-site collaborations.
Validation testing demonstrates reliable performance across multiple experimental platforms. In western blot applications, the antibody successfully detects WT1 in K562, 293T, A549, and HEK293 cell lysates at dilutions ranging from 1:500 to 1:5000, producing a clean band at approximately 50 kDa. While WT1 exists as multiple isoforms with predicted sizes ranging from 34 to 57 kDa, the observed 50 kDa band represents one of the predominant forms commonly detected in these cell lines. For immunohistochemistry, the antibody has been validated in paraffin-embedded human kidney tissue at 1:50 to 1:200 dilutions using standard citrate buffer antigen retrieval, providing flexibility for tissue-based studies.
This antibody supports research spanning epigenetics, nuclear signaling, cancer biology, and developmental studies, making it a versatile tool for investigators exploring WT1 function in both normal physiology and disease contexts.
