Antibody information

Rabbit monoclonal IgG

Company: Cell Signaling

Antibody: ASH2L

Catalog number: 5019S

Summary: Rabbit monoclonal IgG against a synthetic peptide corresponding to the sequence of human ASH2L protein. Reacts with human, mouse, rat, and monkey. It is predicted to react based on 100% sequence homology with D. melanogaster. Suitable for western blot, immunoprecipitation, and immunofluorescence/immunocytochemistry.

Validation Method

Western blot | Immunohistochemistry

Sample

Sterna and BM cells from control and Ash2l KO mice. WB: Cells were lysed on ice in RIPA buffer (10 mM Tris/HCl, pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 1% Nonidet P-40, 1% deoxycholic acid, 0.1% SDS) containing a protease inhibitor cocktail and 10 mM sodium butyrate. IHC: sternum bones were fixed in 4% formaldehyde, decalcified in 10% EDTA (pH 7.4), embedded in paraffin and cut into 2 µm sections.

Blocking agent

IHC: following peroxidase-blocking solution, the sections were treated with 2.5% normal horse serum for 30 min and incubated at room temperature for 30 min.

Primary incubation

WB: 1:2,000 dilution in 5% low-fat milk, 0,05% Tween20 in PBS. IHC: 1:750 dilution in antibody diluent.

Secondary incubation

WB: 1:2,000 dilution peroxidase anti-rabbit antibodies. IHC: ImmPress peroxidase kit was used (20 min), followed by incubation with DAB (10 min).

Detection

WB: SuperSignal Femto Substrate. IHC: NanoZoomer from Hamamatsu Photonics and visualized using the NDP.view2 software.
