Immunofluorescence staining of HeLa cells with purified ab40855 at a working dilution of 1/500, counter-stained with DAPI. The secondary antibody was an Alexa Fluor^® 488 conjugated goat anti-rabbit (ab150077), used at a dilution of 1/1000. The cells were fixed in 4% PFA and permeabilized using 0.1% Triton X 100. The negative control is shown in bottom right hand panel - for the negative control, PBS was used instead of the primary antibody.

This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab40855).

ab40855 was shown to specifically react with Smad2 in wild-type HeLa cells as signal was lost in Smad2 knockout cells. Wild-type and SMAD2 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab40855 and ab9484 (Mouse anti-GAPDH loading control) were incubated overnight at 4°C at 1/10000 dilution and 1/20000 dilution respectively.

This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation (ab40855). ChIC/CUT&RUN was performed using a pAG-MNAse at a final concentration of 700 ng/mL, 2.5 x 10^5 HaCaT (Human keratinocyte cell line) cells (treated with 7ng/ml TGF-β for 1h) and 5 µg of ab40855 [EP784Y]. The resulting DNA was sequenced on the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 to a depth of 10 million reads. The negative IgG control ab172730 is also shown. Additional screenshots of mapped reads can be found in the Protocol booklet in the Product Protocol section.

CUT&RUN profiling with Smad2 antibody reveals the expected genomic enrichment pattern in cells. Representative genome browser tracks show CUT&RUN data generated using the CUTANA™ CUT&RUN Kit (EpiCypher 14-1048) with Smad2 antibody (Abcam ab40855, 0.5 µg). 500,000 HeLa cells were used per reaction. IgG, H3K4me3, and H3K27me3 antibodies were included as controls to assess non-specific background, active promoters, and repressed chromatin, respectively. Libraries were prepared using the CUTANA™ CUT&RUN Library Prep Kit (EpiCypher 14-1001). Sequencing was performed with paired-end 50 bp reads, and data were processed on CUTANA™ Cloud (cloud.epicypher.com) by alignment to the hg38 genome. Images were generated using Integrative Genomics Viewer (IGV, Broad Institute).

CUT&RUN profiling with Smad2 antibody demonstrates robust genome-wide enrichment in cells. Heatmaps of genome-wide signal flanking annotated transcription start sites (TSSs, +/- 2 kbp) display CUT&RUN data generated using the CUTANA™ CUT&RUN Kit (EpiCypher 14-1048) with Smad2 antibody (Abcam ab40855, 0.5 µg). 500,000 HeLa cells were used per reaction. IgG antibody was included as a negative control to assess non-specific background. Libraries were prepared using the CUTANA™ CUT&RUN Library Prep Kit (EpiCypher 14-1001). Sequencing was performed with paired-end 50 bp reads, and data were processed on CUTANA™ Cloud (cloud.epicypher.com) by alignment to the hg38 genome. Heatmaps were generated using deepTools (Ramírez et al., Nucleic Acids Res. 2014; PMID : 24799436). Row-linked data are ranked by intensity relative to Smad2, with red indicating high localized enrichment and blue denoting background.
