Designing a Western blot for Hey1? The guide has the expected band size, antibodies backed by real blot images, the controls to run alongside, and protocols taken from published papers.
Open the HEY1 Western Blot GuideFacts about Hairy/enhancer-of-split related with YRPW motif protein 1.
Especially required for its Notch-induced endocardial epithelial to mesenchymal transition, which is itself criticial for cardiac valve and septum development. May be required in combination with HEY2 to specify arterial cell fate or individuality.
