Anti-N-Myc antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the N-Myc antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the MYCN gene, which encodes MYCN proto-oncogene, bHLH transcription factor. This protein is known to function in astrocyte differentiation and lung development, among other biological roles. The human version of N-Myc has a canonical amino acid length of 464 residues and a protein mass of 49.6 kilodaltons. It is reported to be localized in the nucleus of cells.
