Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-Myogenin antibody [EPR4789] (AB124800)
Immunofluorescence staining of Myogenin using ab124800 in ab277612, which were differentiated for 3 days post induction.
The cells were fixed with 4% formaldehyde (10 min), permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 5 mins and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated overnight at +4°C with ab124800 at 0.5 µg/mL and ab7291, Mouse monoclonal [DM1A] to alpha Tubulin, at 1/1000 dilution. Cells were then incubated with ab150081, Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed at 1/1000 dilution (shown in green) and ab150120, Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 594) preadsorbed at 1/1000 dilution (shown in red). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue).
Image was acquired with a high-content analyser (Operetta CLS, Perkin Elmer) and a maximum intensity projection of confocal sections is shown. Gamma is adjusted to 1.5 in all channels.
The antibody ab124800 gave comparable results using MeOH fixation (100%, 5 min).

Biological function summary
Myogenin functions in controlling the transcription of muscle-specific genes that are essential during myogenesis. This transcription factor forms heterodimers with E-proteins becoming part of DNA-binding complexes that activate the transcription of muscle-specific genes. Myogenin's presence is critical during muscle cell fusion and maturation signifying its importance in proper muscle tissue formation and maintenance. Myogenin staining is often used as a technique to study muscle differentiation in various experimental settings.
Pathways
Myogenin is integrated into the myogenic regulatory network where it activates genes involved in muscle fiber maturation. It participates in the MyoD regulatory pathway working alongside other myogenic regulatory factors like MyoD Myf5 and MRF4. These proteins create a coordinated network ensuring efficient muscle cell differentiation and growth. The cross-talk between myogenin and these factors highlights its role in the intricate web of gene regulation necessary for muscle development.
