Anti-Caveolin 1 antibody - Caveolae Marker (ab18199)

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Caveolin 1 antibody - Caveolae Marker (ab18199)

ICC/IF image of ab18199 stained NIH/3T3 cells. The cells were methanol fixed (5 min) and incubated with the antibody (ab18199, 1µg/ml) for 1h at room temperature. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Image-iT^TM FX Signal Enhancer was used as the primary blocking agent, 5% BSA (in TBS-T) was used for all other blocking steps. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue). Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red).

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Caveolin 1 antibody - Caveolae Marker (ab18199)

ICC/IF image of ab18199 stained MEF7cells. The cells were 4% PFA 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 (ab18199, 5µg/ml) overnight at +4ºC. The secondary antibody (green) was DyLight® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG - H&L, pre-adsorbed (ab96899) used at a 1/250 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.

Immunoprecipitation - Anti-Caveolin 1 antibody - Caveolae Marker (ab18199)

Caveolin 1 - Caveolae Marker was immunoprecipitated using 0.5mg Mouse Brain whole tissue lysate, 5µg of Rabbit polyclonal to Caveolin 1 and 50µl of protein G magnetic beads (+). No antibody was added to the control (-).
The antibody was incubated under agitation with Protein G beads for 10min, Mouse Brain whole tissue lysate lysate diluted in RIPA buffer was added to each sample and incubated for a further 10min under agitation.
Proteins were eluted by addition of 40µl SDS loading buffer and incubated for 10min at 70^oC; 10µl of each sample was separated on a SDS PAGE gel, transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane, blocked with 5% BSA and probed with ab18199.
Secondary: Clean blot (HRP conjugate) at 1/1000 dilution.
Band: 20kDa: Caveolin 1 - Caveolae Marker.
