POU5F1, commonly known as Oct4, stands as one of the most critical transcription factors in stem cell biology and developmental research. This POU domain-containing protein serves as a master regulator of pluripotency, maintaining the undifferentiated state of embryonic stem cells and playing essential roles in cellular reprogramming. Its expression patterns also make it a valuable marker in cancer research, particularly in studies investigating tumor stem cell populations and germ cell malignancies.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody against human POU5F1 offers the reproducibility and consistency that demanding research applications require. Generated using recombinant technology with clone 8H3, this antibody provides a sequence-defined reagent that eliminates the lot-to-lot variability often encountered with traditional hybridoma-derived antibodies. The human IgG1 isotype format, combined with affinity chromatography purification, ensures high specificity for your target while minimizing background interference.
Validation studies demonstrate reliable performance across multiple experimental platforms. Immunohistochemistry testing in paraffin-embedded human tissues, including kidney and ovarian cancer samples, confirms nuclear staining patterns consistent with POU5F1's function as a transcription factor, with optimal results achieved at dilutions between 1:50 and 1:200. Flow cytometry analysis using the 786-O renal cell carcinoma line shows clear positive signal separation from isotype controls, supporting intracellular detection workflows for quantifying POU5F1-expressing cell populations.
Whether you are investigating pluripotency networks, characterizing induced pluripotent stem cells, or exploring cancer stem cell biology, this antibody provides a dependable tool for epigenetics and nuclear signaling research. The validated compatibility with both tissue-based and cell-based assays offers flexibility for comprehensive experimental approaches.
