Application notes
(see key)
|
Recommended dilutions ICC/IF: Use at a concentration of 5 µg/ml. WB: Use at a concentration of 1 µg/ml. Detects a band of approximately 35 kDa (predicted molecular weight: 31 kDa).
Not yet tested in other applications. Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Relevance

U1A binds stem loop II of U1 snRNA. It is the first snRNP to interact with pre-mRNA. This interaction is required for the subsequent binding of U2 snRNP and the U4/U6/U5 tri-snRNP. In a snRNP-free form (SF-A) it may be involved in coupled pre-mRNA splicing and polyadenylation process. It belongs to the spliceosome where it is associated with snRNP U1. It interacts with SFPQ (referenced from swissprot).

Secondary IRDye 680 Conjugated Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG (H+L) at 1/10000 dilution
Performed under reducing conditions.
Predicted band size : 31 kDa Observed band size : 35 kDa (why is the actual band size different from the predicted?)
The U1A protein is acetylated and rich in proline residues (SwissProt data) which may cause it to run at a higher molecular weight than predicted.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - U1A antibody (ab40689)
ICC/IF image of ab40689 stained human HeLa cells. The cells were PFA fixed (10 min), permabilised in TBS-T (20 min) and incubated with the antibody (ab40689, 5µg/ml) for 1h at room temperature. 1%BSA / 10% normal 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).
