Product Name:

α-Tubulin (DM1A) Mouse mAb

Catalog Number:

3873

Clone Number:

DM1A

We perform a lot western blots to look at signaling events but also expression of target proteins involved in T cell and macrophages. Proper loading is essential for all western blots, and we use routinely use tubulin as a loading control for equal protein assessment.
