- - Simoa® and Single Molecule Counting (SMC™) immunoassays
- - Multiplex
- Our antibody pairs are supplied in a a carrier-free format that is conjugation-ready:
- - Buffer free of BSA, sodium azide, and glycerol for higher conjugation efficiency.
- - Concentration of ~1 mg/ml as measured by the protein A280 method.
- Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with <1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for biotin, HRP, gold, and fluorescent dyes.
- We can label antibodies for you: get in touch today to discuss how we can help accelerate your assay development with custom conjugation service
- Pairs are screened in biological samples, including plasma and serum, to ensure specificity in complex samples.
- Please note:
- The recommended antibody orientation is based on internal optimization in sandwich ELISA. Antibody orientation is assay dependent and needs to be optimized for each assay type.
- The range provided for this antibody pair is based on initial sandwich ELISA validation data using recombinant protein. Performance and range of the antibody pair will depend on the specific characteristics of your assay, including standard protein selection.
- We guarantee the product works in sandwich ELISA, but we do not guarantee the sensitivity or dynamic range of the antibodies in other assays.

Supplementary info
- Activity summary
MEF2B also known as myocyte enhancer factor 2B plays an integral role in regulating gene expression. It is a transcription factor belonging to the MEF2 family which also includes MEF2A MEF2C and MEF2D. MEF2B has a molecular mass of approximately 50 kilodaltons. Researchers have found its expression mainly in lymphoid tissues but it is also present in other tissue types. Through its actions MEF2B influences various cellular processes by binding to DNA and facilitating transcriptional activation.
- Biological function summary
MEF2B functions as a regulator of immune system development and differentiation. It acts at the level of transcription to determine the fate of cells by its interactions. MEF2B often partners with various cofactors to form a complex which enhances its ability to control gene expression. It is known to be highly involved in muscle development and cell proliferation underlining its diverse roles in cellular biology.
- Pathways
MEF2B plays important roles in two key signaling networks: the MAPK signaling pathway and the calcium signaling pathway. These pathways manage diverse biological processes like cell growth apoptosis and differentiation. Through the MAPK pathway MEF2B interacts with proteins such as ERK leading to various cellular outcomes. In the calcium signaling pathway MEF2B works alongside calcineurin a phosphatase important for activating MEF2 family members.
- Associated diseases and disorders
MEF2B has been linked with specific health conditions particularly in lymphoma and leukemia. Mutations and dysregulation in MEF2B may contribute to the development of these cancers. MEF2B's interaction with other proteins like BCL6 a well-known repressor in lymphomagenesis highlights its importance in these contexts. Understanding MEF2B's role in these diseases may provide insights for potential therapeutic strategies.
