ESGP (ES cell and germ cell-specific protein) is a presumably secreted polypeptide that belongs to no known protein family. It is expressed specifically in pluripotential cell types, and does not appear to be involved in differentiation. Mouse ESGP precursor is 84 amino acids (aa) in length. It contains a 25 aa signal sequence with a 59 aa mature segment. There are no N-linked glycosylation sites. One potential 108 aa variant shows an alternate start site 24 aa upstream of the standard start site.

Scientific Data Images for Mouse ESGP Antibody
Detection of Mouse ESGP by Western Blot.
Western blot shows lysates of D3 mouse embryonic stem cell line. PVDF membrane was probed with 0.1 µg/mL of Sheep Anti-Mouse ESGP Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF4580) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF016). A specific band was detected for ESGP at approximately 9 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 8.ESGP in Mouse Testis.
ESGP was detected in perfusion fixed frozen sections of mouse testis using Sheep Anti-Mouse ESGP Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF4580) at 1.7 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Northern-Lights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (red; Catalog # NL010) and counterstained with DAPI (blue). Specific staining was localized to late spermatids. View our protocol for Fluorescent IHC Staining of Frozen Tissue Sections.ESGP in D3 Mouse Cell Line.
ESGP was detected in immersion fixed D3 mouse embryonic stem cell line using Sheep Anti-Mouse ESGP Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF4580) at 10 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (red; Catalog # NL010) and counterstained with DAPI (blue). Specific staining was localized to cytoplasm and cell secretion. View our protocol for Fluorescent ICC Staining of Stem Cells on Coverslips.Detection of ESGP by Western Blot

Inhibition of MuSC late differentiation by administration of recombinant CCN2/CTGF protein or CCN2 overexpression. (A–D) MuSCs were isolated from adult mice and treated with different concentrations of recombinant CTGF protein or control in vitro. (A) BrdU incorporation in the control and CTGF protein supplement groups. Recombinant CTGF protein was administered to MuSCs isolated from adult mice for 2 days, with BrdU added 24 h before sample harvest. (B) Immunofluorescence staining of MyoG representing autonomously differentiated MuSCs in the control and CTGF‐treated groups. MuSCs were cultured with growth medium with/without CTGF supplement and quantification results. Scale bar, 100 μm. (C) IF staining of MyoG after 4 days of differentiation and quantification results, including the fusion index after 4 days of differentiation (n = 5 per group in panels B and C). Scale bar, 50 μm. (D) MyoG and Myomixer western blot results. MyoG and Myomixer protein expression levels were normalized to tubulin (n = 3 per group). (E, F) MuSCs from adult mice were transfected with a control (Lenti‐CON) or CCN2‐overexpressed (Lenti‐CCN2) lentivirus. (E) Four days after differentiation, cells were stained with MHC and DAPI, and the fusion index was quantified as myotubes with three or more nuclei/total nuclei number (n = 6 per group). Scale bar, 50 μm. (F) Western blot results of MHC normalized to GAPDH (n = 3 per group). Data are presented as mean ± SD; one‐way ANOVA was used in panels (A) and (B); and a t‐test was used in panels (C)–(F).
