Catalog Number:

Our lab generates a lot of protein knock outs in mouse embryonic stem cells using crispr-cas9 technology. We use Western Blots followed by subsequent sequencing to screen knockout candidates. We chose this antibody because it can be used in many applications and we were interested in performing IP with it later.

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Applications

Western Blot

Sample

Whole cell lysates from mouse ES cells

Primary Incubation

1:500 dilution overnight in 5% milk buffer at 4C

Blocking Agent

5% milk in PBST

Secondary Incubation

1:3000 anti-rabbit secondary at RT for 1 hour

Tertiary Incubation

NA

Detection

Exposure with SuperSignal™ West Femto Maximum Sensitivity Substrate, imaged with apparatus from Bio-Rad

Results Summary

As you can see from the image, the antibody picked up the same nonspecific bands for all cell lysates, and gave us no useful data. We later confirmed knockout 13 from the image as a true knockout through sequencing.

Additional Notes

Summary

The Good

Nothing good about this one

The Bad

Only nonspecific bands, refund process is complicated and lengthy

The Bottom Line

Wouldn't recomend
