Anti-Nestin Antibody
Our Anti-Nestin rabbit polyclonal primary antibody detects human Nestin, and is whole serum. It is validated for use in ICC, WB.

Left: SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells stained with rabbit antibody to Nestin (red, 1:5,000) and chicken antibody to Vimentin (C-1409-50, green, 1:10,000) by Immunocytochemistry. Vimentin is main partner of nestin forming heterodimers, further polymerizing to form intermediate filaments. Co-localization of vimentin and nestin in cells is shown in yellow. Blue: DAPI staining of nuclear DNA. Right: Western blot analysis of nestin expression in SH-SY5Y cell lysate. The antibody (1:2,000) detects one specific band running at ~260 kDa corresponding to full-length nestin protein.

Product Details
Nestin
Required for brain and eye development. Promotes the disassembly of phosphorylated vimentin intermediate filaments (IF) during mitosis and may play a role in the trafficking and distribution of IF proteins and other cellular factors to daughter cells during progenitor cell division. Required for survival, renewal and mitogen-stimulated proliferation of neural progenitor cells (By similarity). Ref: uniprot.org
