Target
-
RelevanceA member of the family of glycosphingolipids, monosialoanglioside acts as a receptor and antigen for cholera. GM1 ganglioside, one of the glycosphingolipids widely distributed in all tissues, occurs in highest concentrations in the central nervous system (CNS). It is primarily located in the outer surface of the mammalian cell's plasma membrane and in synaptic membranes of the CNS. GM1 ganglioside modulates a number of cell surface and receptor activities as well as neuronal differentiation and development, protein phosphorilation and synaptic function.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-Ganglioside GM1 antibody (ab23943)Image courtesy of Nir Drayman by Abreview.ab23943 staining Ganglioside GM1 in African Green Monkey CV1 cells by Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence. The cells were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde, permeabilised in 100% methanol and then blocked using 5% serum for 1 hour at room temperature. Samples were then incubated with primary antibody at 1/10 for 16 hours at 4°C. The secondary antibody used was a goat anti-rabbit IgG conjugated to Alexa Fluor® 488 (green) used at a 1/200 dilution. Counterstained with DAPI (1 ug/ml). -
Flow Cytometry - Anti-Ganglioside GM1 antibody (ab23943)Image courtesy of Nir Drayman by Abreview.ab23943 used in Flow Cytometry.
CV1 cells (positive control) and GM95 cells (negative control) were washed in PBS, trypsinized, washed and incubated with ab23943 at a 1/50 dilution (black histograms) or isotpe control (grey histograms). The secondary antibody used was a DyLight 488 conjugated donkey anti-rabbit, used at a 1/200 dilution.
CV1 cells were positively stained while GM95 showed no staining.
