Assay
Reference: J:275567 Zurkirchen L, et al., Yin Yang 1 sustains biosynthetic demands during brain development in a stage-specific manner. Nat Commun. 2019 May 16;10(1):2192
Assay type: Immunohistochemistry
MGI Accession ID: MGI:7856689
Gene symbol: Sox2
Gene name: SRY (sex determining region Y)-box 2
Antibody: anti-Sox2 (AB5603)
Detection system: Secondary antibody
Assay notes: Two Sox2 antibodies were described, but the one used in this assay was not detailed. Anti-Sox2 (MAB2018) MGI:5587803 may have been used in this assay.
