Max Antibody (H-2) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 kappa light chain antibody that detects Max protein in mouse, rat, and human samples through western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), immunohistochemistry with paraffin-embedded sections (IHCP), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Max antibody (H-2) comes in non-conjugated forms and various conjugates, including agarose, horseradish peroxidase (HRP), phycoerythrin (PE), fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), and multiple Alexa Fluor® options. Max protein functions as a key regulator of gene expression within transcription factor complexes, notably forming heterodimers with Myc proteins to enhance DNA binding and transcriptional activation. Max-Myc heterodimers bind to E-box sequence CACGTG more strongly than Max homodimers, influencing target gene expression. Max′s stable presence in cells, unlike highly regulated Myc, ensures proper function of transcriptional networks. Max interactions with proteins like Mad and Mxi1 can inhibit Max-Myc activity, highlighting complex regulatory mechanisms in cellular behavior and oncogenesis.

Can I use this mouse monoclonal antibody for immunohistochemical staining of mouse tissue? Or even double or triple staining on the same samples?

Asked by: DefinitelyNotMatt
Thank you for your question. Yes. We recommend using a directly conjugated mouse monoclonal primary antibody. This antibody is currently available conjugated to phycoerythrin (sc-8011 PE), fluorescein (sc-8011 FITC), Alexa Fluor® 488 (sc-8011 AF488) or Alexa Fluor® 647 (sc-8011 AF647).
