Rac1 antibody | knockout validation | BD Biosciences 610650

This is a knockout-validated antibody summary, based on the publications "RhoA, Rac1, and Cdc42 differentially regulate αSMA and collagen I expression in mesenchymal stem cells", as cited below [1], and "Action potential-coupled Rho GTPase signaling drives presynaptic plasticity" for immunocytochemistry knockout validation (figure 4b) [2]. Labome curates formal publications to compile a list of antibodies with unambiguous specificity within Validated Antibody Database (VAD).

Summary: Mouse monoclonal IgG2b, κ against human Rac1. Reacts with rat, human, mouse, dog, and chicken. Suitable for western blot, immunofluorescence, and immunohistochemistry. Not recommended for immunoprecipitation.

Validation Method

Western blot

Sample

WT and Rac1-KO mesenchymal stem cells.

Blocking agent

5% milk in TBS, 0.05% Tween (TBS-T) for 60 min.

Primary incubation

Overnight at 4 °C.

Secondary incubation
