Rho A antibody | knockout validation | Santa Cruz sc-418

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 "Macrophage-specific RhoA knockout delays Wallerian degeneration after peripheral nerve injury in mice" for immunohistochemistry and western blot (figure 1d,1e) [2]. Labome curates formal publications to compile a list of antibodies with unambiguous specificity within Validated Antibody Database (VAD).

Antibody information

Mouse monoclonal IgG1 (kappa light chain)

Company: Santa Cruz

Antibody: Rho A

Catalog number: sc-418

Summary: Mouse monoclonal IgG1 (kappa light chain) against amino acids 120-150 of human Rho A. Recommended for detection of Rho A of mouse, rat and human origin by western blot, immunoprecipitation, immunofluorescence, immunohistochemistry (paraffin) and flow cytometry. Also reactive with additional species, including equine, bovine, porcine and canine.

Validation Method

Western blot

Sample

WT and RhoA-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

Corresponding secondary antibodies (Jackson Immunoresearch) for 60 min.

Detection

Luminata Western horseradish peroxidase chemiluminescence substrate detection reagent (Millipore) for 1 min at room temperature. Luminescence was detected with medical X-ray film (Agfa).
