Assay
Reference: J:167031 Petkau TL, et al., Progranulin expression in the developing and adult murine brain. J Comp Neurol. 2010 Oct 1;518(19):3931-47
Assay type: Immunohistochemistry
MGI Accession ID: MGI:5620500
Gene symbol: Grn
Gene name: granulin
Antibody: Anti-Progranulin (AF2557)
Detection system: Biotinylated secondary antibody/[Strept]avidin coupled to horseradish peroxidase
Assay notes: Two different mouse strains were used - C57BL/6 and 129Sv/ImJ. No strain differences were detected and results from both strains were pooled. Individual specimen strain backgrounds were not provided.
