General notes
ab238937 is the carrier-free version of ab183612.
Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. The carrier-free buffer and high concentration allow for increased conjugation efficiency.
This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.
Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with <1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.
This product is compatible with the Maxpar® Antibody Labeling Kit from Fluidigm, without the need for antibody preparation. Maxpar® is a trademark of Fluidigm Canada Inc.
This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:
- - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
- - Improved sensitivity and specificity
- - Long-term security of supply
- - Animal-free production

Applications
The Abpromise guarantee
Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab238937 in the following tested applications.
The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.
Application | Abreviews | Notes |
---|---|---|
IHC-Fr |
Use at an assay dependent concentration.
IHC-Fr is recommended for mouse only. |
|
WB |
Use at an assay dependent concentration. Detects a band of approximately 68 kDa (predicted molecular weight: 56 kDa).
|
|
IP |
Use at an assay dependent concentration.
|
|
IHC-P |
Use at an assay dependent concentration. Perform heat mediated antigen retrieval with Tris/EDTA buffer pH 9.0 before commencing with IHC staining protocol.
IHC-P is recommended for mouse only. Binding in rat is weak under our experimental conditions and requires further optimization. |

Target
-
Function
Responsible for the proteolytic processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP). Cleaves at the N-terminus of the A-beta peptide sequence, between residues 671 and 672 of APP, leads to the generation and extracellular release of beta-cleaved soluble APP, and a corresponding cell-associated C-terminal fragment which is later released by gamma-secretase. -
Tissue specificity
Expressed at high levels in the brain and pancreas. In the brain, expression is highest in the substantia nigra, locus coruleus and medulla oblongata. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the peptidase A1 family. -
Domain
The transmembrane domain is necessary for its activity. It determines its late Golgi localization and access to its substrate, APP. -
Post-translational
modificationsGlycosylated. -
Cellular localization
Membrane. Golgi apparatus > trans-Golgi network. Endoplasmic reticulum. Endosome. Cell surface. Predominantly localized to the later Golgi/trans-Golgi network (TGN) and minimally detectable in the early Golgi compartments. A small portion is also found in the endoplasmic reticulum, endosomes and on the cell surface. - Information by UniProt

Predicted band size: 56 kDa
Observed band size: 60,70 kDa why is the actual band size different from the predicted?False colour image of Western blot: Anti-BACE1 antibody [EPR19523] staining at 1/1000 dilution, shown in green; Mouse anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] (ab8245) loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in red.
In Western blot, ab183612 was shown to bind specifically to BACE1. A band was observed at 60/70 kDa in wild-type SH-SY5Y cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in Bace1 knockout cell line ab280078 (knockout cell lysate ab280137).
To generate this image, wild-type and Bace1 knockout SH-SY5Y cell lysates were analysed. First, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 3 % milk in TBS-0.1 % Tween® 20 (TBS-T) before incubation with primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C. Blots were washed four times in TBS-T, incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times then imaged. Secondary antibodies used were Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L 800CW and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L 680RD at 1/20000 dilution.
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation (ab183612).

ab183612 was shown to specifically react with BACE1 in wild-type HAP1 cells as signal was lost in BACE1 knockout cells. Wild-type and BACE1 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab183612 and ab181602 (Rabbit anti-GAPDH loading control) were incubated overnight at 4°C at 1/1000 dilution and 1/20000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed ab216773 and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed ab216776 secondary antibodies at 1/10000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.
