Lane 2 : HeLa (human epithelial cell line from cervix adenocarcinoma) whole cell lysate
Lane 3 : HaCaT (Human keratinocyte cell line) whole cell lysate
Lysates/proteins at 20 µg per lane.
Secondary
All lanes : Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (HRP) (ab97051) at 1/100000 dilution
Predicted band size: 22 kDa
Observed band size: 14,22 kDa why is the actual band size different from the predicted?Exposure time : Lanes 1 & 2: 3 minutes. Lane 3: 26 seconds.
Blocking and dilution buffer: 5% NFDM/TBST.
The bands observed are consistent with what has been described in the literature. Mature IL-18 protein is detected as a band at 18 kDa, whereas the 14-kDa band represents
the inactive form (PMID: 15326478).
