Anti-GRP78 BiP antibody (ab21685)

Blocking/Diluting buffer and concentration: 5% NFDM/TBST

HEK-293 cells were cultured on coverslips and transiently transfected with wild-type murine IGSF1-2-Myc/His, premeabilized, and processed for double-label immunofluorescence with the Myc antibody (green) and an antibody against GRP78 BiP (red). The overlay is shown in yellow. Nuclei were stained with DAPI. Images were captured by confocal microscopy. Scale bar, 10 μm.

Localization of TEM8 and CMG2 glycosylation mutants.

A) Immunofluorescence of transiently transfected HeLa cells. Cells were transfected for 48h with the respective cDNAs. Cells were fixed, permeabilized and stained for TEM8-HA, endogenous BiP and Hoechst. Scalebars represent 10 μm.

B) Immunofluorescence of transiently transfected HeLa cells. Cells were transfected for 48h with the respective cDNAs. Cells were fixed, permeabilized and stained for CMG2-V5, endogenous BiP and Hoechst. Scalebars represent 10 μm.

ab21685 stained in Hela cells. Cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10min) at room temperature and incubated with PBS containing 10% goat serum, 0.3 M glycine, 1% BSA and 0.1% triton for 1h at room temperature to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody ab21685 at 1µg/ml and ab7291 (Mouse monoclonal [DM1A] to alpha Tubulin - Loading Control) at 1/1000 dilution overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibodies were Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 594) preadsorbed (ab150120) (pseudo-colored red) and Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed (ab150081) secondary antibody (colored green) used at 1 ug/ml for 1hour at room temperature. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (colored blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM for 1hour at room temperature.

ab21685 staining GRP78 BiP in African Green Monkey COS-7 cells by ICC/IF (Immunocytochemistry/immunofluorescence). Cells were fixed with paraformaldehyde, permeabilized with 0.5% Triton X-100 and blocked with 3% BSA for 1 hour at 23°C. Samples were incubated with primary antibody (1/1000 in PBS-BSA) for 1 hour at 23°C. An Alexa Fluor® 488-conjugated Goat anti-rabbit IgG polyclonal (1/1000) was used as the secondary antibody.

The tissue was fixed with formaldehyde and a heat mediated antigen retrival step was performed with citric acid pH 6. Staining with ab21685 at 1 µg/ml for 18 hours at 4°C. An undiluted goat anti-rabbit polyclonal HRP conjugated secondary antibody was used.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence analysis of MDA-MB-435 tumor cell line cells labeling GRP78 BiP with ab21685 at 1/400 dilution. Cells were fixed in formaldehyde and permeabilized with 0.25% Triton-X100 in PBS for 10 minutes. Blocking was done with 1%BSA for 1 hour at 20°C; followed by staining with ab21685 at 1/400 for 18 hours. Undiluted ab150077, a Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor^® 488) secondary antibody was used. DAPI was used to counterstain.
