Thank you for getting back in touch with me. I have been in touch with the source of this antibody and they have confirmed that this antibody was indeed NOT applied in the Furukawa K et al. 2000 publication. The source of this antibody commented: "The data was collected with the aide of a collaborator who is an expert in the field of UBLs (not Furakawa). The reagent detects all URM1, that is any free URM1 in cell lysates as well as URM1 conjugated proteins as our data suggests. The Furakawa reference in a general reference and did not specifically use our product". I hope this information helps, please do not hesitate to contact us if you need any more advice or information.

Thank you for your enquiry. I have been in touch with the source of this antibody and they found it difficult to comment on the differences between those supplied for us on our datasheet and those documented in Furukawa et al., 1999. This antibody was applied in the aforementioned reference. The exposure timing was significantly more that that indicated in the western blot on the datasheet enabling the detection of Urm conjugates in addition to free Urm. In the western blot on the datasheet the antibody detects Urm1 and conjugated Urm1 in the yeast cell lysates. Again this blot was taken with an exposure that did not enable the detection of Urm conjugates as shown by the multiple bands in the publication. I hope this information helps, please do not hesitate to contact us if you need any more advice or information.
