Company:

Santa Cruz Biotechnology Inc

Product Name:

p70 S6 kinase α Antibody (H-9)

Catalog Number:

sc-8418

Clone Number:

H-9

Aim of the experiment was to measure the study state levels of p70 S6 kinase α in growth factor treated human cell line and to normalise the immunoblot for the extent of growth factor-induced post-translational modification of p70 S6 kinase α phosphorylated form. The immunoblot used for the detection for phospho-p70 S6 kinase levels were stripped, and re-probed with p70 S6 kinase α antibody procured from Santacruz Biotechnology Inc. The antibody was selected because of the picture provided in the antibody flyer.

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Applications

Western Blot

Sample

Human cell protein extract

Primary Incubation

Dilution (1:500) in 5% skimmed milk prepared in 1x TBST, overnight incubation at 4 degree Celsius

Blocking Agent

5% skimmed milk made in 1x TBST

Secondary Incubation

Goat anti-mouse IgG HRP Ab, dilution (1:4000) in 5% skimmed milk made in 1x TBST, 1hr at RT

Tertiary Incubation

None

Detection

Enhanced chemiluminescent detection in X-Ray films

Results Summary

Excellent detection of p70 S6 kinase α was observed with the antibody. However, there were a few bright non-specific bands so; it can be graded as a right antibody for p70 S6 kinase α in human cells.
