71 kDa MEKK3 was immunoprecipitated from 0.35mg of bEnd.3 (mouse brain endothelial cell) whole cell lysate with ab40756 at 1/30 dilution. Western blot was performed from the immunoprecipitate using ab40756 at 1/200 dilution. VeriBlot for IP secondary antibody (HRP) (ab131366) was used at 1/5000 dilution.
Lane 1 (Input): bEnd.3 (mouse brain endothelial cell) whole cell lysate 10 μg.
Lane 2 (+): bEnd.3 whole cell lysate.
Lane 3 (-): Rabbit monoclonal IgG (ab172730) instead of ab40756 in bEnd.3 whole cell lysate
Blocking buffer and concentration: 5% NFDM/TBST.
Diluting buffer and concentration: 5% NFDM/TBST.
Exposure time: 180 seconds.
