Scientific Data Images for Human WIZ Antibody

Detection of WIZ in MG‑63 Human Cell Line.

WIZ was detected in immersion fixed MG‑63 human osteosarcoma cell line using Mouse Anti-Human WIZ Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB11743) at 8 µg/ml for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (red; Catalog # NL007) and counterstained with DAPI (blue). Specific staining was localized to the nucleus. View our protocol for Fluorescent ICC Staining of Cells on Coverslips.

Background: WIZ

Widely interspaced zinc finger motifs (WIZ) is an epigenetic regulatory protein with a molecular weight of approximately 95 kDa. This protein plays a critical role in chromatin remodeling and transcriptional regulation by interacting with key epigenetic modifiers such as G9a/GLP and other chromatin-associated complexes. WIZ is ubiquitously expressed across various tissues and is essential for maintaining proper gene expression patterns during development and differentiation. It has been implicated in processes such as neuronal development, where it facilitates neuron-specific gene activation and repression, and in safeguarding chromatin architecture. Dysregulation of WIZ expression or function contributes to pathological conditions, including various neuropsychiatric disorders and cancer, where its role in epigenetic silencing can influence tumorigenesis and disease progression. Mutations in the WIZ gene are associated with cognitive impairments and developmental delay syndromes, suggesting its importance in neuroplasticity and brain development. As a key mediator of chromatin dynamics, WIZ serves as a promising target for research into epigenetic therapies and biomarkers of disease.
