Anti-HES-2 Antibody

This polyclonal antibody from Antibodies.com specifically targets HES-2 (Hairy/Enhancer of Split family bHLH transcription factor 2), a transcriptional repressor that participates in Notch signaling cascades and developmental gene regulation. Raised in rabbit hosts, the unconjugated reagent is supplied as a 100 µl vial at 1 mg/ml in PBS supplemented with 0.1% sodium azide and 50% glycerol as a cryoprotectant. The antibody recognizes the endogenous target in human, mouse, and rat samples, supporting reproducible detection across common model organisms by western blot analysis. Researchers investigating cardiomyocyte differentiation, neural progenitor cell fate, and Notch-dependent transcriptional control can use this reagent to probe HES-2 protein levels in lysates prepared from cell culture and primary tissue. Each lot is affinity purified to minimize background binding, and the polyclonal format increases the likelihood of recognizing multiple epitopes on the HES-2 protein. The glycerol-containing buffer permits storage at -20 °C for long-term use, with minimal freeze-thaw exposure recommended to preserve activity across repeated experiments.
