Description: MyoD, or MYOD1, is one of the earliest markers of myogenic commitment. MyoD is expressed at extremely low and essentially undetectable levels in quiescent satellite cells, but expression of MyoD is activated in response to exercise or muscle tissue damage. The effect of MyoD on satellite cells is dose-dependent; high MyoD expression represses cell renewal, promotes terminal differentiation and can induce apoptosis. Although MyoD marks myoblast commitment, muscle development is not dramatically ablated in mouse mutants lacking the MyoD gene. This is likely due to functional redundancy from Myf5 and/or Mrf4. Nevertheless, the combination of MyoD and Myf5 is vital to the success of myogenesis. [Wiki]
Immunogen: Recombinant human protein was used as the immunogen for this recombinant MyoD antibody.
Storage: Store the recombinant MyoD antibody at 2-8oC (with azide) or aliquot and store at -20 °C or colder (without azide).
Localization: Nuclear. Only nuclear staining should be considered as evidence of skeletal muscle differentiation.
