Merck, SAB4200085-200UL, Monoclonal Anti-AGO2 antibody produced in rat

Monoclonal Anti-AGO2 (rat IgG2a isotype) is derived from the hybridoma 11A9 produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells (P3X63Ag8.653) and splenocytes from rat immunized with a peptide corresponding to amino acids 1-15 of human AGO2. Monoclonal Anti-AGO2 recognizes human, monkey, bovine, rat and mouse AGO2. Argonaute 2 (Ago2) is encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 8q24.3. The encoded protein belongs to the Ago protein family. AGO2 is mainly localized on the diffuse cytoplasm and stress granules.
