Product type 

Primary antibodies

Description 

Rabbit polyclonal to Fibrillarin - Nucleolar Marker

Immunogen 

Synthetic peptide conjugated to KLH derived from within residues 1 - 100 of Human Fibrillarin.

(Peptide available as ab13745.)

Reacts with 

Hu, Ms, Dm, Xl

Does not react with 
(species key)

Rat

Specificity 

This antibody detects a band at close to 34kDa in all species tested. The band can be completely blocked with the immuising peptide in all cases - this is very strong evidence that the antibody is recognising fibrillarin.

Relevance 

Nop1p / Fibrillarin was originally identified as a nucleolar protein of bakers yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae (accession P15646). The Nop1p protein is essential for yeast viability and is localized in the nucleoli. The human homologue of Nop1p is fibrillarin (accession P22087) a component of the nucleolar small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP) particle. The human fibrillarin gene is located on chromosome 19 (19q13.1). Fibrillarin proteins have been cloned and sequenced from several other species (Mouse, accession P35550, Xenopus accession P22232, C. elegans accession Q22053, and S. pombe accession P35551). The N terminal 80 amino acids contain multiple copies based on the peptide RGG, and the remaining 240 amino acids consist of the fibrillarin domain. A fibrillarin homologue has also been identified in the genome of the archean Methanococcus (accession NC_000909). This protein lacks the RGG rich N-terminal extension but is clearly homologues to the other sequences throughout all of the fibrillarin domain. The structure of this molecule has been determined and shown to consist of 2 extended b-sheets flanked by 4 a-helixes. Patients with the autoimmune disease scleroderma often have strong circulating autoantibodies to a 34kDa protein which was subsequently found to be fibrillarin. Fibrillarin is an excellent marker for the nucleolus.

ICC/IF image of ab5821 stained human HeLa cells. The cells were methanol fixed (5 min) and incubated with the antibody (ab5821, 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).

Immunofluorescent imaging of human cells (U2OS) with ab5821 reveals highly specific localisation to the dense fibrillar component (DFC) of the nucleolus associated with the initial ribosomal RNA (rRNA) precursor. The nucleolar protein fibrillarin is located primarily in the DFC.  Blue is hoechst staining of the nucleus, green is ab5821 used at 1/100, merge image demonstrates exclusively nuclear localisation.  

IF was performed with a standard paraformaldehyde technique (fixed in PBS buffered PFH 4% for 5 minutes, permeabilised with 0.5% triton-PBS for 5 minutes, blocked with 5% milk / 0.2% tween for one hour.  Primary antibody used at 1/100 in 5% milk / 0.2% TWEEN for one hour, secondary antibody Alexa 488 for 30 minutes.  All blocking and incubation steps carried out at 37 degrees C.

ab5821 staining human liver tissue sections by IHC-P.  Sections were formaldehyde fixed, permeabilized in Triton-X and subjected to heat mediated antigen retrieval prior to blocking with 6% BSA for 2 hours at 23°C. The primary antibody was diluted 1/100 and incubated with the sample for 16 hours at 5°C.  ab6717 was used as the secondary antibody.
