Recombinant Anti-Profilin 1 antibody [EPR6304] (ab124904)

Lanes 1 - 4: Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab124904 observed at 15 kDa. Red - loading control, ab8245, observed at 37 kDa.

ab124904 was shown to specifically react with in wild-type HAP1 cells as signal was lost in PFN1 knockout cells. Wild-type and PFN1 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. The membrane was blocked with 3% NF Milk. Ab124904 and ab8245 (Mouse anti-GAPDH loading control) were incubated overnight at 4°C at 1/10000 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 1/20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) analysis of Human breast carcinoma tissue sections labeling Profilin 1 with Purified ab124904 at 1:800 dilution (0.18 µg/ml). Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed using ab93684 (Tris/EDTA buffer, pH 9.0). ImmunoHistoProbe one step HRP Polymer (ready to use)was used as the secondary antibody. Negative control:PBS instead of the primary antibody. Hematoxylin was used as a counterstain.

Unpurified ab124904, at 1/500 dilution, staining Profilin 1 in paraffin-embedded human colon tissue by Immunohistochemistry.

Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed before commencing with IHC staining protocol.

Unpurified ab124904, at 1/250 dilution, staining Profilin 1 in HeLa cells by Immunofluorescence.

Overlay histogram showing HeLa cells stained with unpurified ab124904 (red line). The cells were fixed with 80% methanol (5 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab124904, 1/1000 dilution) for 30 min at 22°C. The secondary antibody used was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H&L) (ab150077) at 1/2000 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was rabbit IgG (monoclonal) (0.1μg/1x10⁶ cells) used under the same conditions. Unlabelled sample (blue line) was also used as a control. Acquisition of >5,000 events were collected using a 20mW Argon ion laser (488nm) and 525/30 bandpass filter.
