Designing an IHC experiment for Spermine oxidase? The guide has the expected staining pattern, antigen retrieval and fixation, antibodies backed by real IHC images, the tissue controls to run alongside, and protocols taken from published papers.
Open the SMOX IHC GuideFacts about Spermine oxidase.
Plays an essential role in the regulation of polyamine intracellular concentration and has the potential to act as a determinant of cellular sensitivity to the antitumor polyamine analogs. May contribute to beta-alanine production through aldehyde dehydrogenase conversion of 3-amino-propanal.
