SOX2 Antibody in Immunocytochemistry (ICC) — ICC staining of NTera2 cells using Product # PA1-16968 for SOX2 (Green) at a 1:50 dilution and an anti-alpha-Tubulin (Red) at a 1:1000 dilution. Nuclei (Blue) were counterstained using Hoechst 33258.

SOX2 Antibody in Immunohistochemistry (IHC) — Immunohistochemical staining of uterus, endometrial glands using Product # PA1-16968.

SOX2 Antibody in Western Blot (WB) — Western Blot detection of SOX2 in mouse brain lysate using Product # PA1-16968 (0.5 µg/mL).

SOX2 Antibody in Flow Cytometry (Flow) — FACS staining of NTERA-2 cells using Product # PA1-16968 at a 1:50 dilution detected using Dylight-488 conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG secondary antibody.

SOX2 Antibody — Figure 8 SOX2 mRNA and protein expression in HepG2 and SNU449 using RT-PCR and western blotting, respectively. (a) Graphical representation of SOX2 mRNA expression in HepG2 and SNU449 using RT-PCR. (b) Graphical representation of SOX2 protein expression using western blotting. RT-PCR and western blotting band intensities were measured using ImageJ and normalized against GAPDH and beta -tubulin, respectively, and statistically analyzed using Prism GraphPad. P values were computed using one-way ANOVA (with a Bonferroni posttest). P values less than 0.05 are considered significant ( * P value < 0.05, ** P value < 0.01, and *** P value < 0.001). Negatives were carried out for RT-PCR experiments. Results are a representation of three independent experiments.

Target Information

SOX2 is an intronless gene encoding a member of the SRY-related HMG-box (SOX) family of transcription factors involved in the regulation of embryonic development and in the determination of cell fate. The product of the SOX2 gene is required for stem-cell maintenance in the central nervous system, and also regulates gene expression in the stomach. The SOX2 gene lies within an intron of another gene called SOX2 overlapping transcript (SOX2OT). Further, SOX2 protein may act as a transcriptional activator after forming a protein complex with other proteins. Mutations in the SOX2 gene have been associated with bilateral anophthalmia, a severe form of structural eye malformation, optic nerve hypoplasia and syndromic microphthalmia.
