Antibody information

Rabbit monoclonal IgG

Company: Abcam

Antibody: LDLR

Catalog number: ab215980

Summary: Rabbit monoclonal IgG against a synthetic peptide corresponding to human LDL Receptor (C terminal). Reacts with mouse and human. Suitable for western blot, immunocytochemistry/immunofluorescence, immunohistochemistry (paraffin) and flow cytometry.

Validation Method

Western blot

Sample

Liver extracts from LDLR+/+, LDLR+/−, and LDLR−/− pigs. Tissues were homogenized on ice in RIPA buffer (1% NP-40, 1% Na-deoxycholate, 0.1% SDS, 0.15 M NaCl, 0.01 M NaPO4 pH 8.0, 2 mM EDTA) supplemented with protease inhibitor cocktail (Sigma), 1 mM PMSF (Sigma), and 1 mM DTT.

Secondary incubation

Horseradish peroxidase-conjugated secondary antibodies (SC-2317, Santa Cruz Biotechnology)

Detection

Chemiluminescent Detection Kit (Pierce).
