Relevance 

Beta galactosidase is coded by a gene (lac z) in the lac operon of Escherichia coli. It is a metalloenzyme that splits lactose into glucose and galactose. It hydrolyzes terminal, non-reducing beta-D-galactose residues in beta-D-galactosides.
Activation by cations seems to be substrate dependent. K+, Na+, NH4+, Rb+, Cs+ and Mn++ all activate enzyme activity based upon the substrate used.

Immunohistochemistry (PFA perfusion fixed frozen sections) - beta Galactosidase antibody (ab9361)

ab9361 at 1/500 dilution staining mouse adult brain cells (R26R mice crossed with cre expressing line)  by Immunocytochemistry. The cells were 4% PFA perfused 4H post-fix. The antibody was incubated with the cells for 16 hours and then bound antibody was detected using a Alexa Fluor ® 488 conjugated goat-anti chicken antibody. The image shows both nuclear and punctate staining (both matched x-gal staining pattern).

Immunohistochemistry (Frozen sections) - beta Galactosidase antibody (ab9361)

ab9361 at 1/1000 staining frozen mouse pancreas sections by IHC-Fr. The mice were transgenic knock out or heterozygous (in this case LRH +/-)with Lacz reporter replacing a section of the coding sequence for gene. Embryos collected at day E14.5. The tissue was formaldehyde fixed and blocked with a maleate buffer blocking solution prior to incubation with the antibody for 16 hours. A Cy3 ® conjugated goat anti-chicken antibody was used as the secondary.

ab9361 at 1/250 staining human HEK293T cells by ICC/IF. The cell line was transfected with a b-gal expressing plasmid, and x-gal staining was performed on adjacent wells. The cells were paraformaldehyde fixed and blocked with serum prior to incubation with the antibody for 16 hours. A Texas Red conjugated donkey anti-chicken antibody was used as the secondary.
