MEF2C Antibody – Rabbit Polyclonal

MEF2C: transcription factor of the MADS family which binds specifically to the MEF2 element present in the regulatory regions of many muscle-specific genes. May be involved in myogenesis, neurogenesis and in the development of cortical architecture. Three splice-variant isoforms have been described.
