Recommended dilutions
ICC/IF: Use at a concentration of 1 µg/ml.
WB: Use at a concentration of 1 µg/ml. Detects a band of approximately 100 kDa (predicted molecular weight: 75 kDa). Although the predicted band size is 75kDa based on Swiss-prot data, a band of 120kDa has been previously observed. Mol Cell Biol. 2002 Dec;22(23):8267-77 PMID: 12417729. The band seen at 100kDa is also consistent with the banding pattern observed for other commercially available antibodies to Rad21.
Not yet tested in other applications.
Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Relevance
|
The protein encoded by the Rad21 gene is highly similar to the gene product of Schizosaccharomyces pombe rad21, a gene involved in the repair of DNA double-strand breaks, as well as in chromatid cohesion during mitosis. This protein is a nuclear phospho-protein, which becomes hyperphosphorylated in cell cycle M phase.
RAD21 also plays a role in apoptosis, via its cleavage by caspase 3 or caspase 7 during early steps of apoptosis: the C-terminal 64 kDa cleavage product may act as a nuclear signal to initiate cytoplasmic events involved in the apoptotic pathway. Recent work has shown that the RAD21 has a role in the invasion and metastasis of cancer cells.

Predicted band size : 75 kDa
Observed band size : 100 kDa (why is the actual band size different from the predicted?)
Additional bands at : 55 kDa (possible cleavage fragment).
Although the predicted band size is 75kDa based on Swiss-prot data, a band of 120kDa has been previously observed. Mol Cell Biol. 2002 Dec;22(23):8267-77 PMID: 12417729.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Rad21 antibody (ab42478)
ICC/IF image of ab42478 stained human HeLa cells. The cells were PFA fixed (10 min), permabilised in TBS-T (20 min) and incubated with the antibody (ab42478, 1µg/ml) for 1h at room temperature. 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine was used to quench autofluorescence and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. 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). DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue).
