Overview

  • Product name
    T47D whole cell lysate
    See all T47D lysates
  • General notes
    Extracts have been quality control tested by Western blot and the Electrophoretic Mobility Shift Assay (EMSA). To ensure stability, we recommend aliquoting the extracts into single-use fractions and then storing them at -80ºC.

  • Background
    T47D cells carry receptors for a variety of steroids and calcitonin. They express mutant tumor suppressor protein p53 protein. Under normal culturing conditions, they express progesterone receptor constitutively and are responsive to estrogen. They are able to lose the estrogen receptor (ER) during long-term estrogen deprivation in vitro. Cells are therefore used as a model for studies of drug resistance to tamoxifen in patients with mutant p53 breast tumors.

I was looking at the above product on your website. I noticed that a comment was on the page asking about DNA and one of your colleagues responded saying that there would be no DNA present in the lysate. Would this also be true of RNA? And does the lys...

Regarding ab14899, the procedure for the preparation of the whole cell extract is not RNAase free so the RNA will be at least partially degraded. But there is no step to get rid of the RNA and since it’s more soluble than DNA it could be present ...

I am inquiring to find out if it is possible to extract DNA from the T-47D cell lysate.

Thank you for your enquiry. With the protocol used, the DNA is pelleted and discarded along with cell debris during the extraction process, so there is no DNA present in this lysate. I hope this information helps. Please do not hesitate to conta...
