Myosin-14 (UniProt: Q7Z406; also known as Myosin heavy chain 14, Myosin heavy chain, non-muscle IIc, Non-muscle myosin heavy chain IIc (NMHC II-C)) is encoded by the MYH14 (also known as KIAA2034, FP17425) gene (Gene ID: 79784) in human. MYH14/Myosin-14 is a member of the myosin superfamily, which are motor proteins known for their role in cellular movement and transport. Like other myosins, MYH14/Myosin-14 has a conserved motor domain that binds to actin filaments and hydrolyzes ATP to produce movement. It also contains a tail region that can interact with various cellular components, which helps dictate its specific functions and interactions within the cell. MYH14/Myosin-14 is involved in various cellular processes, including intracellular transport and cytoskeletal organization. It functions as a motor protein, using energy from ATP hydrolysis to move along actin filaments. This movement is crucial for transporting cellular components and contributing to cell shape and motility. MYH14/Myosin-14 may also play roles in specialized cellular activities, such as those related to cellular signaling and structural integrity. Dysregulation or mutations of MYH14/Myosin-14 can contribute to developmental disorders and potentially impact processes such as cell division and migration. This ZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

Clone 2B4 is a ZooMAb^® rabbit recombinant monoclonal antibody that detects MYH14/Myosin-14. It targets an epitope within 25 amino acids from the C-terminal region.

Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS with 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 µL.

300 µg/mL after reconstitution at 25 µL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.

Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 µL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
