Assay
Reference: J:256987 Shi B, et al., MORC2B is essential for meiotic progression and fertility. PLoS Genet. 2018 Jan;14(1):e1007175
Assay type: Immunohistochemistry
MGI Accession ID: MGI:7509241
Gene symbol: Morc2b
Gene name: microrchidia 2B
Antibody: anti-MORC2B (UP2419)
Detection system: Secondary antibody coupled to fluorescein
Assay notes: Two Morc2b antibodies were described, but the one used in this assay was not detailed. Anti-MORC2B (UP2420) MGI:7509125 may have been used in this assay.
