BD Pharmingen™ Purified Mouse Anti-MyoD
Clone 5.8A (RUO)
Western blot analysis of MyoD expression on Rh30 Rhabdomyosarcoma cells. Rh30 cell lysate was stained with Purified Mouse Anti-MyoD (Cat. No. 554130), followed by HRP Goat Anti-Mouse Ig (Cat. No. 554130) for 1 hour at room temperature. MyoD is identified as a 45-48 kDa band.

Preparation And Storage
Store undiluted at 4°C. The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography.
Recommended Assay Procedures
Applications include Western blot analysis (1-2 µg/ml) and immunohistochemical staining of paraformaldehyde-fixed, frozen tissue sections and myogenic cell lines (titrate between 0.5-5 µg/ml). RD Rhabdomysarcoma cells (ATCC CCL-136) and normal myoblasts are suggested as a positive control for these applications. Cell lines which are suggested as negative controls include: Ewing's sarcoma cells RD-ES (ATCC HBT-166), neuroblastoma cells SK-N-SH (ATCC HTB-11), and Burkitts lymphoma cells EB2 (ATCC HTB-61).
Product Notices
- Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
- Caution: Sodium azide yields highly toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in plumbing.
- Species cross-reactivity detected in product development may not have been confirmed on every format and/or application.

Antibody Details
5.8A
MyoD is a member of a family of myogenic basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factors that includes Myf-5, myogenin, and MRF4 (also known as herculin or Myf-6). Members of this family, expressed exclusively in skeletal muscle, play a key role in myogenesis by activating muscle-specific genes in response to extracellular growth factors. Transfection of MyoD and other family members into non-muscle cells has been shown to either convert these cells to myogenic cells or to transcriptionally activate a set of otherwise unexpressed muscle-specific genes. Members of this family have distinct roles in muscle development; for example, MyoD and Myf-5 act early during myeloid development, whereas myogenin acts at a later point during myoblast differentiation. The expression and activity of MyoD has been shown to involve the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade.
The epitope for MoAb 5.8A has been mapped to amino acids 180-189 of mouse MyoD.

Format Details
Purified
Tissue culture supernatant is purified by either protein A/G or affinity purification methods. Both methods yield antibody in solution that is free of most other soluble proteins, lipids, etc. This format provides pure antibody that is suitable for a number of downstream applications including: secondary labeling for flow cytometry or microscopy, ELISA, Western blot, etc.
