Antibody information

Mouse monoclonal IgG2b

Company: NeuroMab

Antibody: Shank3

Catalog number: 73-109

Summary: Mouse monoclonal IgG2b against a synthetic peptide corresponding to a.a. 840-857 of rat Shank3. Reacts with human, mouse and rat. Suitable for western blot, immunoprecipitation and immunohistochemistry.

Validation Method

Western blot

Sample

Brain from WT, Shank3-heterozygous and Shank3-KO rats.

Primary incubation

1:100 dilution.

Secondary incubation

1:5,000 dilution HRP-conjugated anti-mouse antibodies (Jackson ImmunoResearch Laboratories, West Grove, PA).

Detection

ECL substrate (Pierce; Thermo Scientific, Rockford, IL) or SuperSignal West Femto (Thermo Scientific, Rockford, IL) substrates were used to produce the signal that was detected on a G:Box Chemi-XT4 GENESys imager (Syngene; Cambridge, UK).
