Application

Anti-NeuN antibody produced in rabbit has been used in Immunohistochemical staining.

Biochem/physiol Actions

NeuN (neuronal nuclei)/RBFOX3 (RNA binding protein, fox-1 homolog 3) is a RNA splicing factor. It controls neuronal splicing pathway. NeuN is used as a potential marker of postmitotic neurons in studies of neuronal differentiation and in the evaluation of neuronal status both in norm and pathology. Mutation in the gene is associated with risk of rolandic epilepsy. Studies have shown that in presence of neurological disorders, the protein is mislocalized.

General description

NeuN (neuronal nuclei), also known as RBFOX3 (RNA binding protein, fox-1 homolog 3), is encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 17q25.3. The encoded protein belongs to the RBFOX family of proteins. NeuN is present in nuclei and perinuclear cytoplasm of most of the neurons in the central nervous system (CNS) of mammals.

Immunogen

Recombinant protein of human NeuN.
