Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-IKB alpha antibody [EP697] (AB76429)

Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human colon tissue sections labelling IKB alpha with purified ab76429 at dilution of 1/500. Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) was used as the secondary antibody. The sample was counterstained with hematoxylin. Antigen retrieval was performed using EDTA Buffer; pH 9.0. PBS was used instead of the primary antibody as the negative control and is shown in the inset.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-IKB alpha antibody [EP697] (AB76429)

Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence staining of HeLa cells labelling IKB alpha with purified ab76429 at a working dilution of 1/250. The secondary antibody was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit (ab150077), used at a dilution of 1/1000. ab7291, a mouse anti-tubulin antibody (1/1000), was used to stain tubulin along with ab150120 (Alexa Fluor® 594 goat anti-mouse, 1/1000), shown in the top right hand panel. DAPI was used as nuclear counterstain. The cells were fixed in 4% Paraformaldehyde and permeabilized using 0.1% Triton X-100. The negative controls are shown in bottom middle and right hand panels - for negative control 1, rabbit primary antibody was used followed by an Alexa Fluor® 594 goat anti-mouse antibody (ab150120). For negative control 2, ab7291 (mouse anti-tubulin) was used followed by an Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit antibody (ab150077).

Lane 1 : Wild-type HAP1 whole cell lysate (20 μg)
Lane 2 : IKB alpha knockout HAP1 whole cell lysate (20 μg)
Lane 3 : HeLa whole cell lysate (20 μg)

Lanes 1 - 3 : Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab76429 observed at 39 kDa. Red - loading control, ab18058, observed at 130 kDa.

ab76429 was shown to specifically react with IKB alpha in wild-type HAP1 cells as well as additional cross-reactive bands. No bands were observed when IKB alpha knockout cells were examined. Wild-type and IKB alpha knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab76429 and ab18058 (Mouse anti Vinculin loading control) were incubated overnight at 4°C at 1/500 dilution and 1/10,000 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 1/10,000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

Target data

Inhibits the activity of dimeric NF-kappa-B/REL complexes by trapping REL (RELA/p65 and NFKB1/p50) dimers in the cytoplasm by masking their nuclear localization signals (PubMed : 1493333, PubMed : 36651806, PubMed : 7479976). On cellular stimulation by immune and pro-inflammatory responses, becomes phosphorylated promoting ubiquitination and degradation, enabling the dimeric RELA to translocate to the nucleus and activate transcription (PubMed : 7479976, PubMed : 7628694, PubMed : 7796813, PubMed : 7878466).
