Product Name:

RB1 Rabbit Polyclonal antibody

Catalog Number:

10048-2-Ig

We have identified a class of ATPase inhibitors that show promise for treatment of ovarian cancer. We are currently evaluating what mechanisms, if any, may lead to resistance to theses ATPase inhibitors. We are measuring changes in protein expression in an animal model of drug resistance. I chose this product because I have come to find that Proteintech provides reliable antibodies.

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Applications

Western Blot

Sample

Human tumor cell lysates

Primary Incubation

1:1000 dilution in 5% milk in TBS-T, overnight at 4 degrees C

Blocking Agent

5% milk in TBS-T

Secondary Incubation

1:10,000 in 5% milk in TBS-T, 30 minutes at RT

Tertiary Incubation

N/A

Detection

Chemiluminescence substrate for HRP-labeled secondary antibodies

Results Summary

Clear bands at 110kDa (predicted size) for Rb1 (lower band on image). Also observed a higher molecular weight band. Based on discussions with others, identifying a clear correct sized band for Rb1 on the first attempt is good (other antibodies against Rb1 may be less specific).
