Cell Signaling Technology

Product Name:

USP18 (D4E7) Rabbit mAb

Catalog Number:

4813

ImageOur goal is to verify expression changes in several genes involved in interferon pathways, such as USP18, following compound treatment. We selected the 4813 antibody from CST because we’ve had good results with other antibodies from that supplier in the past.
