Purification technique
Affinity purification Immunogen
Specificity

Detects a 190kDa band in PC-3 cells, which may correspond to Huntingtin. Stains neuronal cytoplasm in immunohistochemistry (the expected localisation). The antibody has not been conclusively tested for specificity for phospho S421 Huntingtin.

This antibody is specific for phosphorylated human Huntington protein at the pS421 residue. BLAST analysis indicates 100 % homology of the immunizing sequence with Huntington homologues from chimpanzee, pig and chicken. Cross reactivity with Huntington protein homologues from mouse and rat may also occur as sequence homology varies by one amino acid residue in this sequence. Reactivity with Huntington protein from other sources is not known. Minimal reactivity is expected with the non-phosphorylated form of the protein.

Purification notes

Anti-Huntingtin pS421 is an affinity purified antibody produced by immunoaffinity chromatography using phospho peptide coupled to agarose beads followed by solid phase adsorption(s) against non-phospho peptide and non-specific peptide to remove any unwanted reactivities. This antibody is specific for phosphorylated human Huntington protein at the pS421 residue.

    Western blot - Anti-Huntingtin (phospho S421) antibody (ab2174)

    The 190kDa band may correspond to Huntingtin. However, it is not clear whether the antibody is specific for the phospho S421 form.

    All lanes: Western blot - Anti-Huntingtin (phospho S421) antibody (ab2174) at 1/1000 dilution

    All lanes: human PC-3 cell lysate

    Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Huntingtin (phospho S421) antibody (ab2174)

    ab2174 was used at a 1:100 dilution to detect phosphorylated Huntingtin by immunohistochemistry in human brain cerebellum. Positive cytoplasmic staining is
    observed in neurons. Tissue was formalin-fixed and
    paraffin embedded. Detection was with AEC (pink), nuclear counterstaining with Haemotoxylin (blue).
