Anti-MAGED4 Antibody Picoband® fluoro488 Vervoeging

MAGE family member D4 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MAGED4 gene. MAGED4, originally termedMAGEE1, is a member ofMAGE (Melanoma associated antigen) super-family identified by serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) technique (PMID: 11406556; 24966945) . Three isoforms (MAGED4a, b, and c) were produced by alternative splice in the process of gene transcription (PMID: 11406556) . This antibody raised against 1-350 aa of humanMAGED4 protein detects a band of 90-100 kDa, which islargerthan the calculated molecularweight. The slower electrophoretic mobility may be due to abnormal spatial conformation ofMAGED4 protein caused by abundance of proline in composition (PMID: 24966945) .

Required for DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) formation in unsynapsed regions during meiotic recombination. Probably acts by forming a complex with MEI4 and REC114, which activates DSBs formation in unsynapsed regions, an essential step to ensure completion of synapsis. Not required for HORMAD1 functions in pairing-independent synaptonemal complex formation, ATR recruitment to unsynapsed axes, meiotic silencing of unsynapsed chromatin (MSUC) or meiotic surveillance.
