This is a knockout-validated antibody summary, based on the publication "Modelling kidney disease with CRISPR-mutant kidney organoids derived from human pluripotent epiblast spheroids", as cited below [1]. Labome curates formal publications to compile a list of antibodies with unambiguous specificity within Validated Antibody Database (VAD).

Antibody information

Goat polyclonal IgG

Company: R&D Systems

Antibody: hPODXL

Catalog number: AF1658

Summary: Goat polyclonal IgG raised against a mouse myeloma cell line NS0-derived recombinant human podocalyxin (Ser23-Arg427). Reacts with human protein. Recommended for western blots, immunohistochemistry, flow cytometry and ELISA.

Validation Method

Western blot | Immunocytochemistry

Sample

WT and PODXL−/− hPSC and their derived kidney organoids.

Blocking agent

IF: 5% donkey serum (Millipore)/0.3% Triton-X-100/PBS.

Primary incubation

IF: 1:500 dilution in 3% bovine serum albumin/PBS overnight.

Secondary incubation

IF: Alexa-Fluor secondary antibodies (Invitrogen).

Detection

IF: Nikon epifluorescence 90-I (upright), Eclipse Ti (inverted), or confocal C1 microscopes.

Note

No info about western blotting. We are assuming the same antibodies as the one used for IF.
