Product Name:

p38 alpha [p Thr180, p Tyr182] Antibody

Catalog Number:

NB500-138

Clone Number:

N/A

Mouse subjected to a specific treatment was sacrificed, tissues were isolated, and prepared protein extracts were examined to test the effect of the particular treatment on p-p38 protein levels. For this extracted tissue proteins which were resolved in 10%, SDS-PAGE was immunoblotted with Novus Biologicals p-p38 Ab. The selection of p-p38 from Novus Biologicals was based on previous experience and the information provided in the antibody flyer.

Experimental Design and Results Summary

Applications

Western Blot

Sample

Mouse tissue whole-cell protein extract

Primary Incubation

Dilution (1:1000) 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-Rabbit IgG HRP Ab, dilution (1:4000) in 5% skimmed milk made in TBST, 1hr at RT

None

Detection

Enhanced chemiluminescent detection in X-Ray film

Results Summary

The antibody has detected only a specific band of p38 protein at 38 kDa (compared with duel range protein marker). However, specific treatment significantly affected p-p38 levels.
