Application notes 
(see key)

Recommended dilutions
ICC/IF: Use at a concentration of 1 µg/ml.
IHC-P: Use at a concentration of 1 µg/ml. Perform heat mediated antigen retrieval before commencing with IHC staining protocol.
WB: Use at a concentration of 1 µg/ml. Detects a band of approximately 17 kDa (predicted molecular weight: 16 kDa).


Not yet tested in other applications.
Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Positive control 
(see definition)

This antibody gave a positive signal in the following whole cell lysates:
HeLa (Human epithelial carcinoma cell line)
Jurkat (Human T cell lymphoblast-like cell line)
A431 (Human epithelial carcinoma cell line)

Cellular localization 

Cytoplasmic and Nuclear

Research areas 

Chromatin and Nuclear Signaling >> DNA / RNA >> Translation >> Regulation

Relevance 

eIF1A is an essential eukaryotic translation initiation factor. The protein is required for the binding of the 43S complex (a 40S subunit, eIF2/GTP/Met-tRNAi and eIF3) to the 5' end of capped RNA (referenced from entrez gene).

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - eIF1A antibody (ab38976)

ICC/IF image of ab38976 stained human HeLa cells. The cells were PFA fixed (10 min), permabilised in TBS-T (20 min) and incubated with the antibody (ab38976, 1µg/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).

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - eIF1A antibody (ab38976)

IHC image of eIF1A1 staining in human skin FFPE section, performed on a Leica BondTM system using the standard protocol F. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20 mins. The section was then incubated with ab38976, 1µg/ml, for 15 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX.
