PRDM16 Antibodies
AND PRDM16 ELISA kits, PRDM16 Proteins
Many biological assays use antibodies to detect PRDM16, such as Western Blot (WB), ELISA, Flow Cytometry, Immunocytochemistry (IHC). These antibodies can be polyclonal or monoclonal, and react with PRDM16 in Human, Mouse, Rat, and many other animal samples. Boster Bio use mainly mouse and rabbit to develop PRDM16 antibodies...
Designing a Western blot for PRDM16? The guide has the expected band size, antibodies backed by real blot images, the controls to run alongside, and protocols taken from published papers.

PRDM16 Overview
Facts about Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase PRDM16.
Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase PRDM16 (PRDM16)
Binds DNA and functions as a transcriptional regulator. Functions in the differentiation of brown adipose tissue (BAT) that is specialized in dissipating chemical energy in the shape of heat in response to cold or surplus feeding while white adipose tissue (WAT) is specialized in the storage of excess energy and the control of adrenal gland.
Together with CEBPB, regulates the differentiation of myoblastic precursors into brown adipose cells. Functions also as a repressor of TGF-beta signaling.
