Recombinant Anti-Caspr antibody [EPR7828] (ab133634)

Lanes 1 - 4: Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab133634 observed at 175 kDa. Red - loading control, ab18058, observed at 130 kDa.

ab133634 was shown to recognize Caspr in wild-type HAP1 cells as signal was lost at the expected MW in CNTNAP1 (Caspr) knockout cells. Additional cross-reactive bands were observed in the wild-type and knockout cells. Wild-type and CNTNAP1 (Caspr) knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab133634 and ab18058 (Mouse anti-Vinculin loading control) were incubated overnight at 4°C at  1/1000 dilution and 1/20000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye^® 800CW) preabsorbed ab216773 and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye^® 680RD) preabsorbed ab216776 secondary antibodies at 1/20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence analysis of Neuro-2a (mouse neuroblastoma neuroblast) cells labeling Caspr with purified ab133634 at 1/100 (5.7 µg/ml). Cells were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100. Cells were counterstained with ab195889 Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Microtubule Marker (Alexa Fluor^® 594) 1/200 (2.5 µg/ml). Goat anti rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor^® 488, ab150077) was used as the secondary antibody at 1/1000 (2 µg/ml) dilution. DAPI (blue) was used as nuclear counterstain. PBS instead of the primary antibody was used as the secondary antibody only control.
