Description: The myc gene family encodes nuclear phosphoproteins that are thought to play a role in the control of cellular proliferation and differentiation. Comparison with Ki-67 staining indicates that myc protein expression in many tumors is uncoupled from cellular proliferation. This antibody's strongest reactivity observed with human and mouse Myc. Will also cross-react with avian and Xenopus.
