Target data

Function

Vimentin, a class-III intermediate filament, is present in various non-epithelial cells, particularly mesenchymal cells, and connects either laterally or terminally to the nucleus, endoplasmic reticulum, and mitochondria. It is involved with LARP6 in stabilizing type I collagen mRNAs for CO1A1 and CO1A2. This supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.

    Western blot - Anti-Vimentin antibody [SP20], prediluted (ab27608)

    This image was generated using a previous batch manufactured using the hybridoma production method.


    This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation (Anti-Vimentin antibody [SP20] ab16700).

    Lanes 1 - 4: Merged signal (red and green). Green - Anti-Vimentin antibody [SP20] ab16700 observed at 53 kDa. Red - loading control, Anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] - Loading Control ab8245 observed at 37 kDa.

    Anti-Vimentin antibody [SP20] ab16700 was shown to react with Vimentin in wild-type HeLa cells. Loss of signal was observed when knockout cell line Human VIM (Vimentin) knockout HeLa cell line ab255446 (knockout cell lysate Human VIM (Vimentin) knockout HeLa cell lysate ab263775) was used. Wild-type and Vimentin knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Anti-Vimentin antibody [SP20] ab16700 and Anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] - Loading Control (Anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] - Loading Control ab8245) were incubated overnight at 4°C at 1 in 100 dilution and 1 in 20000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preadsorbed (Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preadsorbed ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preadsorbed (Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preadsorbed ab216776) secondary antibodies at 1 in 20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

    Overlay histogram showing HeLa cells stained with ab27608 (red line). The cells were fixed with 80% methanol (5 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min. 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 (ab27608, neat) for 30 min at 22ºC. The secondary antibody used was DyLight® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) (Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (DyLight® 488) preadsorbed ab96899) at 1/500 dilution for 30 min at 22ºC. Isotype control antibody (black line) was rabbit IgG (monoclonal) (1µg/1x106 cells) used under the same conditions. Unlabelled sample (blue line). 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 HeLa cells fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min)/permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min used under the same conditions.
