The FTO fto (Catalog #MBS838617) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. MyBioSource\'s FTO can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunofluorescence (IF).WB: 1:1000
IF: 1:100. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the FTO fto for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process.
The FTO fto product has the following accession number(s) (GI #299801608) (NCBI Accession #ADJ51677.1). Researchers may be interested in using Bioinformatics databases such as those available at The National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) website for more information about accession numbers and the proteins they represent. Even researchers unfamiliar with bioinformatics databases will find the NCBI databases to be quite user friendly and useful.

Please refer to the product datasheet for known applications of a given antibody. We\'ve tested the FTO antibody with the following immunoassay(s):
Western Blot (WB) (Western blot of rat testes lysate showing specific immunolabeling of ~ 58k FTO protein)
Mouse monoclonal FTO antibody.
Biological Significance: The exact function of this gene is not known. Studies in mice suggest that it may be involved in nucleic acid demethylation, and that its mRNA level is regulated by feeding and fasting. Genomewide association studies of type 2 diabetes indicate this gene as a diabetes susceptibility locus. Mutation in this gene has been associated with growth retardation, developmental delay, coarse facies, and early death. In general, we may offer more than one antibody to a given target to enable options for the researcher. Available antibodies recognizing FTO are readily searchable from our website. Different antibodies against the same target such as FTO may be optimized or tested for different applications and species. This enables researchers to select the option that may be best for their model system, to screen more than antibody to determine which one may be best for their model system, as well as to use more than one antibody to follow up on and validate their results.
