Hi, A customer would like some advice as to what they can use as a negative control for hes1 with ab55265. The customer is doing Western Blot on nuclear extracts of T-ALL cell lines. The Abreviews recommend a –ve control for Flow Cyt but not for WB. I look forward to your feedback so that I can advise the customer, thanks. Kind regards, |

ANSWER: |
Thank you for your enquiry. I am sorry to confirm that Hes1 is a transcription factor that is fairly ubiquitously expressed. It is therefore difficult to suggest a negative control. Unfortunately, this antibody has been tested externally and a negative control was not used. I have conducted a literature search, but am regrettably not able to confirm a suitable negative control for Hes1. I can recommend to consider trying a more extensive literature search on the internet and Pubmed for more information. We aim to provide as much information as possible to customers, and I am sorry there are no more details to provide on this occasion. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. |

Does ab55265 Hef1 antibody detect Hes1 from the Notch signalling pathway? |
|||||||||
ANSWER: |
Thank you for your recent telephone enquiry. From a literature search, I can see that the Hes1 protein can be part of the notch signalling pathway. This particular publication states that NOTCH receptors can signal through the hairy and enhancer of split (HES)-1 transcriptional regulator: Diabetes. 2008 Sep;57(9):2413-20. HES-1 is involved in adaptation of adult human beta-cells to proliferation in vitro.Bar Y, Russ HA, Knoller S, Ouziel-Yahalom L, Efrat S.

According to our data, our external tester used the antibody to test some cell lysate (total protein extraction), but we have not especially used this antibody in our laboratories to research the Notch signalling pathway.
I hope this information is helpful. Should you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. |

Hes1 antibody (ab55265) at 1ug/lane + THP-1 cell lysate at 25ug/lane.
Overlay histogram showing HepG2 cells stained with ab55265 (red line). The cells were fixed with 80% methanol (5 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab55265, 1µg/1x106 cells) for 30 min at 22ºC. The secondary antibody used was DyLight® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) (
