Normal Rabbit IgG #2729

Applications Reactivity Source
ChIP Rabbit

Applications Key:  ChIP=Chromatin IP
Reactivity Key:
Species enclosed in parentheses are predicted to react based on 100% sequence homology. Species cross-reactivity is determined by Western blot.

Specificity / Sensitivity

Source / Purification

The purified antibody is not directed against any known antigen. It was isolated from naive rabbit sera and prepared by Protein A chromatography.

Chromatin IP

Chromatin IP

Chromatin immunoprecipitations were performed using digested chromatin from HeLa cells and the indicated antibodies. Purified DNA was analyzed by quantitative Real-Time PCR, using primers specific for the RPL30 gene, the MYOD gene or the heterochromatic α satellite repeat element. The relative abundance of each DNA sequence enriched by Normal Rabbit IgG #2729 (red) is compared to the amount of the same DNA sequence enriched by the protein-specific immunoprecipitations.

Chromatin IP

Chromatin IP

Chromatin immunoprecipitations were performed using digested chromatin from HeLa cells and either Histone H3 Antibody #2650 (lane 2), Rpb1 CTD (4H8) Mouse mAb #2629 (lane 3), Di-Methyl Histone H3 (Lys9) Antibody #9753 (lane 4) or Normal Rabbit IgG #2729 (lane 5). Purified DNA was analyzed by standard PCR methods using primers specific for the RPL30 gene, the MYOD gene or the heterochromatic α satellite repeat element. PCR products were observed for each primer set in the input sample (lane 1) and various protein-specific immunoprecipitations but no PCR products were observed with immunoprecipitation using Normal Rabbit IgG #2729 (lane 5).

Description

Normal Rabbit IgG is an unconjugated rabbit polyclonal antibody that is routinely used as a non-specific IgG control in chromatin immunoprecipitation using our SimpleChIP™ Enzymatic Chromatin IP Kits #9002 and #9003.

Background

Normal Rabbit IgG is an isotype control antibody, which is used to estimate the non-specific binding of target primary antibodies due to Fc receptor binding or other protein-protein interactions. An isotype control antibody should have the same immunoglobulin type and be used at the same concentration as the test antibody.
