A synthetic peptide for use as a blocking control in assays to test for specificity of MAGOH antibody, Alternative Names: MAGOH control peptide, MAGOH antibody Blocking Peptide, Anti-MAGOH Blocking Peptide, mago-nashi homolog, proliferation-associated, Drosophila Blocking Peptide, MAGOH1 Blocking Peptide, MAGOHA Blocking Peptide
Drosophila that have mutations in their mago nashi (grandchildless) gene produce progeny with defects in germplasm assembly and germline development. MAGOH is the mammalian mago nashi homolog. In mammals, mRNA expression is not limited to the germ plasm, but is expressed ubiquitously in adult tissues and can be induced by serum stimulation of quiescent fibroblasts.
