The regulation of neuronal cell specific gene expression, is dependent on the repression of non-neuronal cell gene transcription, mediated by the neuronal silencer protein REST/NRSF (RE1 silencing transcription factor/neural-restrictive silencing factor) through recruitment of the BHC complex. CoREST is a SANT-domain-containing protein within the BHC complex, which mediates the nucleosomal demethylation of H3K4 (histone H3 lysine 4), and acts as a regulator of BHC corepressor function.
Applications:
Suitable for use in Western Blot. Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution:
Western Blot: 1:2500-1:5000
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Storage and Stability:
May be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot and store at -20 degrees C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20 degrees C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
