Target

  • Function

    Functions as a myeloid and B-cell proto-oncogene. May play important roles in leukemogenesis and hematopoiesis. An essential factor in lymphopoiesis, is required for B-cell formation in fetal liver. May function as a modulator of the transcriptional repression activity of ARP1.
  • Tissue specificity

    Expressed at high levels in brain, spleen thymus, bone marrow and testis. Expressed in CD34-positive myeloid precursor cells, B-cells, monocytes and megakaryocytes. Expression is tightly regulated during B-cell development.
  • Involvement in disease

    Note=Chromosomal aberrations involving BCL11A may be a cause of lymphoid malignancies. Translocation t(2;14)(p13;q32.3) causes BCL11A deregulation and amplification.
  • Sequence similarities

    Contains 6 C2H2-type zinc fingers.
  • Post-translational
    modifications

    Sumoylated by SUMO1.
  • Cellular localization

    Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Associates with the nuclear body. Colocalizes with SUMO1 and SENP2 in nuclear speckles.

The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab19487, 0.1μg/1x106 cells) for 30 min at 22°C. The secondary antibody used was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) (ab150113) at 1/2000 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was mouse IgG1 [ICIGG1] (ab91353, 1μg/1x106 cells) used under the same conditions. Unlabelled sample (blue line) was also used as a control. Acquisition of >5,000 events were collected using a 20mW Argon ion laser (488nm) and 525/30 bandpass filter. This antibody gave a positive signal in Ramos cells fixed with 80% methanol (5 min)/permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min used under the same conditions.

    Predicted band size: 91 kDa
    Observed band size: 120 kDa why is the actual band size different from the predicted?
    Additional bands at: 37 kDa, 42 kDa, 62 kDa. We are unsure as to the identity of these extra bands.


    Exposure time: 20 minutes


    The 120 kDa band observed is comparable to the molecular weight seen with other commercially available antibodies to Ctip1 / BCL-11A.

Question

Order Details
Antibody code:ab19487

Problem
Choose: Non-specific band in prostate BPH clinical sample and no band in positive control: MDA231 cell line

Lot number GR5236-3

General Information
Antibody storage conditions (temperature/reconstitution etc): aliquoted, kept at -20C


Description of the problem (high background, wrong band size, more bands, no band etc.)
Non-specific band in prostate BPH clinical sample (around 30 kDa) and no band in positive control: MDA231 cell line


Sample (Species/Cell extract/Nuclear extract/Purified protein/Recombinant protein etc.)
cell lines: MDA231, MCF7, Pnt1a, Pnt2, FTC133, TPC1, DLD1, HTC116 and 1 clinical prostate sample

Sample preparation (Buffer/Protease inhibitors/Heating sample etc.)
standard: lysis buffer with protease inhibitors

Amount of protein loaded
30

Electrophoresis/Gel conditions (Reducing or Non-reducing gel, % of the gel etc.)

reducing conditions, 7.5%


Transfer and blocking conditions (Buffer/time period, Blocking agent etc.)
2h at 200mA in standard transfer buffer (TRIS GLYCINE with 20% methanol).

Blocking: 5% milk in TRIS

Primary Antibody (Manufacturer/Species/Diluent/Dilution/Incubation time, Wash step)
BCL11a, mouse, ab19487 in 5% BSA/TRIS, overnight incubation

Wash: TRIS/tween 2x10min

Secondary Antibody (Manufacturer/Species/Diluent/Dilution/Incubation time, Wash step)
Fisher, 32430, goat anti-mouse peroxidise conjugated, 1:200 for 1h at room temp.
Wash: TRIS/tween 2x10min


Detection method (ECL, ECLPlus etc.)
chemiluminescent HRP substrate

Positive and negative controls used (please specify)
Positive: breast ca cell line MDA231, negative: MCF7. Based on information from collaborators who are about to publish their data. They used the same clone antibody but from Santa Cruz. However Santa Cruz discontinued their product.


Optimization attempts (problem solving)
How many times have you tried the Western?

3 times: incubated 1Ab longer, exposed film longer, shorter washes

Have you run a No Primary control?
Yes No

No as I have clean image anyway

Do you obtain the same results every time?
Yes No

More or less. When I re-incubated the membrane again overnight and exposed film for very long I got additional background bands but any at predicted size


e.g. are the background bands always in the same place?


What steps have you altered?
wash times, X ray exposure times

Additional Notes:
I have no problem with background. The image is clean but there is no specific band at predicted size at all.

Image:
We would appreciate if you are able to provide an image (including molecular weight markers) which would help us to asess the results.

Answer

Thank you for taking the time to complete our questionnaire.

The details you have kindly provided will enable us to investigate this case for you and this is also helpful in our records for monitoring of quality.

Reviewing this case, I would like to offer some suggestions to help optimize the results. I would also appreciate if you can confirm some further details:

1. I would appreciate if you are able to provide further details of the lysis buffer that was used? I can suggest to use RIPA if not already tried.

2. For loading, is this 30 micrograms?

3. Was the overnight incubation at4oC? This can often provide more efficient and specific staining if its not already been tried.

4. Has the protein transfer to the membrane and quality of the sample beenassessed using a loading control?

5. Unfortunately, I am sorry I am not able to open the image. I would appreciate if you could try sending this again.

6. Is the secondary antibody working well with other primary antibodies?

I hope this information is helpful, thank you for your cooperation. Should the suggestions not improve the results, please do not hesitate to contact me again with the further requested details.

Question

Inquiry: Our group recently bought anti BCL11a antibody (mouse monoclonal), which should give the band on WB at 91kDa. I tested several cell lines, including breast cancer MDA231, which previously gave good results with mouse monoclonal antibody from Santa Cruz (tested by our collaborators). Santa Cruz discontinued that product but your antibody is exactly the same clone. Yet I couldn't get any band with any cell line (MDA231, MCF7, Pnt1a, Pnt2, FTC133, TPC1, DLD1, HTC116). I only got 1 band at about 25kDa when I tested clinical sample (prostate BPH). I used dilution 1:1000, o/n incubation, exposure time - 15 min. Bactin was fine. Can you provide me with other positive control or give me some suggestions, please? Kind regards,

Answer

Thank you for taking the time to contact us. I am sorry to hear you have had difficulty obtaining satisfactory results from this antibody.

I would like to reassure you that this antibody is tested and covered by our 6 month guarantee forWB and human samples. In the event that a product is not functioning in the tested applications and species cited on the product data sheet (and the problem has been reported within 6 months of purchase), we will be pleased to provide a credit note, free of charge replacement or refund.

I would like to investigate this particular case further for you, and also obtain more information for our quality monitoring records. In order to proceed with this, I have enclosed a technical questionnaire below. I would appreciate if you could complete this. It will help you put the information we require together very easily.

I would appreciate if youare also able to provide an image, including molecular weight markers,which would help us to assess the results.

Thank you for your time and cooperation. We look forward to receiving the completed questionaire.

Answer

Thank you for your reply. I can confirm that the immunogens for this antibody were GST-CTIP1 1-171, GST-CTIP1 172-434 and GST-CTIP1 420-776. The three immunogens were used in approximately equal amount to immunize the mice. ab19487 was then prepared from hybridomas that produced antibodies recognizing different regions of Ctip1. I can also confirm that ab19487 will bind bcl11a alone as well as any bcl11a (Ctip1) complex. I hope this information is helpful. Please do not hesitate to contact me again with any further questions.

Answer

Thank you for your inquiry. All of the information we have for each of our products is listed on the online datasheet for your convenience. These are updated as soon as any new information is brought to our attention. I can confirm his monoclonal antibody was mapped to the region of core of CTIP1/Bcl11a (aa's 172-434). A closer mapping was not performed. This monoclonal antibody is produced by a hybridoma cell line and then purified to the IgG fraction. Should you decide to go ahead and purchase this product, we encourage you to submit an Abreview of your results. We appreciate all customer feedback, whether positive or negative, and we make all product information available to researchers. To find out more about our Abreview system, please see the following webpage: https://www.abcam.com/abreviews Please do not hesitate to contact us again if you need further assistance.
