Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab7962 in the following tested applications.
The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.
| Application | Notes |
|---|---|
| ICC/IF | ICC/IF: Use a concentration of 1 µg/ml. |
| IHC-P | IHC-P: Use at an assay dependent dilution. Perform heat mediated antigen retrieval via the pressure cooker method before commencing with IHC staining protocol. |
| IP | IP: Use at an assay dependent dilution. |
| WB | WB: 1/200. Predicted molecular weight: 16 kDa.Can be blocked with p16 (C-term) peptide (human) (ab8017). |
| Sandwich ELISA | sELISA: Use a concentration of 0.5 µg/ml. Can be paired for Sandwich ELISA with Mouse monoclonal [DCS50.1] to CDKN2A/p16INK4a (ab16123). For sandwich ELISA, use this antibody as Detection at 0.5 µg/ml with Mouse monoclonal [DCS50.1] to CDKN2A/p16INK4a (ab16123) as Capture. |
Target
- RelevanceThe CDKN2A locus gives rise to 2 distinct transcripts from different promoters. The transcripts have been designated p16(INK4A) and p14(ARF). This chromosomal region undergoes a number of inversions, translocations, heterozygous deletions, and homozygous deletions in a variety of malignant cell lines including those from glioma, non-small cell lung cancer, leukemia, and melanoma. Deletion of the region containing CDKN2A is found in more than half of all melanoma cell lines. In spite of the structural and some functional differences, all the proteins encoded by the CDKN2A gene are involved in cell cycle G1 control.

ICC/IF image of ab7962 stained HeLa cells. The cells were 4% formaldehyde fixed (10 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab7962, 1µg/ml) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red) at a 1/200 dilution for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM.
