RUNX2, also known as core-binding factor subunit alpha-1 or osteoblast-specific transcription factor 2, serves as a master regulator of osteoblast differentiation and skeletal development. This transcription factor plays essential roles in bone formation, chondrocyte maturation, and the regulation of genes involved in mineralization. Beyond its well-established functions in skeletal biology, RUNX2 has garnered significant attention in cancer research due to its involvement in tumor progression and metastasis, making it a valuable target for investigators studying both developmental processes and disease mechanisms.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody, clone 22D12, offers the reproducibility and consistency that demanding experimental workflows require. Generated through recombinant technology with a defined sequence, this antibody eliminates the lot-to-lot variability that can compromise longitudinal studies or multi-site collaborations. The rabbit IgG format, purified by affinity chromatography, ensures high specificity for human RUNX2 protein.
Validation studies demonstrate reliable performance across multiple detection platforms. Immunofluorescence analysis in HepG2 cells reveals clear nuclear localization patterns consistent with RUNX2's function as a transcription factor, with optimal results achieved at dilutions between 1:50 and 1:200. Flow cytometry validation using 786-O renal carcinoma cells confirms the antibody's utility for quantitative single-cell analysis, showing distinct positive signal separation from isotype controls at 1:100 dilution.
For researchers investigating epigenetics, nuclear signaling, or the transcriptional networks governing cell fate decisions, this antibody provides a dependable tool for visualizing and quantifying RUNX2 expression. Its validated performance in both imaging and flow-based applications offers flexibility for characterizing RUNX2 dynamics across diverse experimental contexts.
