Anti-MAX Antibody

Raised in rabbit against recombinant full-length human MAX, this unconjugated polyclonal IgG reagent from Antibodies.com detects endogenous Myc-associated factor X in human, mouse, and rat samples. The basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper transcription factor MAX dimerizes with c-Myc, N-Myc, L-Myc, and Mad family members to regulate genes controlling cellular proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis, making it a focal point for cancer biology and developmental studies. Validated for western blot, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence workflows, the antibody reveals the nuclear localization characteristic of MAX as it carries out its transcriptional regulatory functions. Supplied as a 50 µl liquid in a vial, the unconjugated format allows researchers to pair it with their preferred secondary detection reagents for chromogenic, fluorogenic, or amplified readout systems. The polyclonal response targets multiple epitopes on the mature MAX polypeptide, yielding a band near the predicted molecular weight in western blot analysis. Aliquot upon receipt and store at -20 °C, avoiding repeated freeze-thaw cycles, to preserve activity across multiple experimental rounds.
