PIWI-like protein 4 (PIWIL4) is a 97 kDa member of the argonaute family of proteins and the PIWI subfamily. Human PIWIL4 is 852 amino acids (aa) in length and contains one PAZ domain (aa 268-384) and one PIWI domain (aa 546-838). There are three isoforms for human PIWIL4. Isoform 1 is the standard protein. Isoform 2 has a two aa substitution for aa 1-29 in isoform 1 and a deletion of aa 523-852. Isoform 3 has a deletion of aa 1-69 and a deletion of aa 523-852. Human PIWIL4 shares 77% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat PIWIL4. PIWIL4 plays a central role in spermatogenesis.

Scientific Data Images for Human PIWIL4 Antibody
PIWIL4 in BG01V Human Stem Cells.
PIWIL4 was detected in immersion fixed BG01V human embryonic stem cells using Human PIWIL4 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB6316) at 10 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (yellow; Catalog # NL007) and counterstained with DAPI (blue). Specific staining was localized to cytoplasm. View our protocol for Fluorescent ICC Staining of Cells on Coverslips.Applications for Human PIWIL4 Antibody
