Applications

Show applications key

Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab21696 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: Use at a concentration of 1 µg/ml.
IHC-P: 1/1000 - 1/5000. Perform heat mediated antigen retrieval via the pressure cooker method with citrate buffer pH 6.0 before commencing with IHC staining protocol.
WB: Use at a concentration of 1 µg/ml. Detects a band of approximately 69 kDa (predicted molecular weight: 69 kDa). Can be blocked with DDX5 peptide (ab22412).


Not yet tested in other applications.
Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Target

Function

RNA-dependent ATPase activity. The rate of ATP hydrolysis is highly stimulated by single-stranded RNA. May be involved in pre-mRNA splicing.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the DEAD box helicase family. DDX5/DBP2 subfamily.
Contains 1 helicase ATP-binding domain.
Contains 1 helicase C-terminal domain.

Post-translational
modifications

Arg-502 is dimethylated, probably to asymmetric dimethylarginine.

Cellular localization

Nucleus > nucleolus.

Predicted band size : 69 kDa


ab21696 recognizes a clear, strong band at ~ 69kDa corresponding to DDX5. A number of other, non specific bands are weakly recognized by the antibody. All bands are quenched by the addition of the blocking peptide.

ICC/IF image of ab21696 stained human HeLa cells. The cells were PFA fixed (3.7% PFA, 10 min) and incubated with the antibody (ab21696, 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-iTTM 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).

ab21696 localises to the nucleus as expected. We believe the small amount of signal seen skirting the nucleus is due to inefficient fixation of the sample.

Additional bands at : 170 kDa. We are unsure as to the identity of these extra bands.
