Full Methods

Primary Antibody: ABIN962807

Secondary Antibody: goat anti-rabbit Dye-IR800 conjugated antibody (Advansta, R-05060-250, lot 17083179)

• Transfect cells with pCDNA 3.1 neo (-) (Invitrogen) containing human MR1 cDNA (Genecopoeia) using Polyethylenimine (Polysciences, 23966) following the manufacturer´s instructions.
• Lyse cells in cold lysis buffer (10mM Tris pH7.4, 150mM NaCl, 0.5mM EDTA, 2% CHAPS).
• Determine total protein content of the lysates using Commassie Protein Assay Reagent (Thermo Scientific, 1856209, lot NL179252).
• Denature 200µg total protein for 5min at 95°C in 20µl Laemmli SDS sample buffer and subsequently separate them on a SDS-PAGE gel using Acrylamide/Bis Premixed (Bio-Rad, 61-0125, lot 260000477) for 2-3h at 100V.
• Transfer proteins onto PVDF membrane (Millipore, IPVH00010, lot K5AA6843U) with a Western blotting system for ON at 4°C at 150mA.
• Block the membrane with blocking buffer (2% BSA/PBS/0.05%Tween-20) for 1h at RT.
• Incubate membrane with:
• loading control rabbit anti beta-actin (antibodies-online, ABIN962807) diluted 1:500 in blocking buffer ON at 4°C.
  • primary rabbit anti-MR1 antibody (antibodies-online, ABIN1537116, lot SA111213CH) diluted 1:1000 in blocking buffer ON at 4°C.
• Wash membrane 3x for 10min with PBS/0.05%Tween-20.
• Incubate membrane with secondary goat anti-rabbit Dye-IR800 conjugated antibody (Advansta, R-05060-250, lot 17083179) diluted 1:10000 in PBS/0.05% Tween-20 for 1h at RT.
• Wash membrane 3x for 10min with PBS/0.05% Tween-20.
• Reveal protein bands using an Odyssey imaging system (LI-COR Biosciences).

Experimental Notes:

The beta Actin antibody ABIN962807 reveals a protein of the expected molecular weight of beta actin in lysates of human HEK293 cells.

Handling

Format: Lyophilized

Reconstitution: Reconstitute the lyophilized antibody with deionized water to the final concentration of 0.5 mg/mL.

Buffer: PBS, pH 7.4, containing 0.02 % Sodium azide, without BSA

Preservative: Sodium azide

Precaution of Use: WARNING: Reagents contain sodium azide. Sodium azide is very toxic if ingested or inhaled. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing. Wear eye or face protection when handling. If skin or eye contact occurs, wash with copious amounts of water. If ingested or inhaled, contact a physician immediately. Sodium azide yields toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide-containing compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in lead or copper plumbing.

Storage: 4 °C/-20 °C

Storage Comment: The antibody is stable in lyophilized form if stored at -20°C or below. The reconstituted antibody can be stored for 2-3 weeks at 2-8°C. For long term storage, aliquot and store at -20°C or below. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing cycles.

Background: Beta-actin is one of the six different actin isoforms that have been identified. The actin molecules found in cells of various species and tissues tend to be very similar in their immunological and physical properties. As a consequence, it has been difficult to produce potent antisera against this protein. Therefore, the availability of monoclonal antibodies to beta-actin provides a useful and specific tool in the study of the intracellular distribution of beta-actin and the static and dynamic aspects of the cytoskeleton.
