  Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Drosha antibody (ab12286)

ab12286 at a 1/25 dilution staining human HeLa cells by immunocytochemistry. The antibody was incubated with the cells for 1 hour and then detected using a Cy3 conjugated donkey anti-rabbit polyclonal antibody.

  Western blot - Drosha antibody (ab12286)

All lanes : Anti-Drosha antibody - ChIP Grade (ab12286) at 1 µg/ml

Lane 1 : HeLa (Human epithelial carcinoma cell line) Whole Cell Lysate
Lane 2 : HeLa (Human epithelial carcinoma cell line) Nuclear Lysate

Lysates/proteins at 20 µg per lane.

Secondary
Goat polyclonal to Rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 680) at 1/15000 dilution

Performed under reducing conditions.

Predicted band size : 159 kDa
Observed band size : 170 kDa (why is the actual band size different from the predicted?)

  Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Drosha antibody - ChIP Grade (ab12286)

ICC/IF image of ab12286 stained HepG2 cells. The cells were 4% PFA fixed (10 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab12286, 1µg/ml) overnight at +4°C. 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) at a 1/200 dilution for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM.
