Species cross-reactivity is determined by western blot. Species enclosed in parentheses are predicted to react based on 100% sequence homology.
Protocols
Specificity / Sensitivity
Lamin A/C (4C11) Mouse mAb detects endogenous levels of lamin A and lamin C proteins. It also reacts with the larger fragments of lamin A (50 kDa) and lamin C (41 kDa) produced by caspase cleavage during apoptosis. This antibody does not cross-react with lamins B1 and B2.
Source / Purification
Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a recombinant fragment of human lamin A protein.
Western Blotting
Western blot analysis of extracts from various cell lines using Lamin A/C (4C11) Mouse mAb.
Western Blotting
Western blot analysis of extracts from THP-1 cells, untreated or treated with cycloheximide (CHX, 10 μg/ml, overnight) followed by TNF-α #8902 (20 ng/ml, 4 hours), using Lamin A/C (4C11) Mouse mAb.
IHC-P (paraffin)
Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human breast carcinoma using Lamin A/C (4C11) Mouse mAb.
IHC-P (paraffin)
Immunohistochemical analysis of paraffin-embedded human colon carcinoma using Lamin A/C (4C11) Mouse mAb.
Flow Cytometry
Flow cytometric analysis of HeLa cells using Lamin A/C (4C11) Mouse mAb (blue) compared to a nonspecific negative control antibody (red).
IF-IC
Confocal immunofluorescent analysis of HeLa cells using Lamin A/C (4C11) Mouse mAb (green). Actin filaments were labeled with DY-554 phalloidin (red).
IF-F
Immunofluorescent analysis of normal rat brain using Lamin A/C (4C11) Mouse mAb (green) and MAP2 Antibody #4542 (red).
Background
Lamins are nuclear membrane structural components that are important in maintaining normal cell functions such as cell cycle control, DNA replication, and chromatin organization (1-3). Lamin A/C is cleaved by caspase-6 and serves as a marker for caspase-6 activation. During apoptosis, lamin A/C is specifically cleaved into a large (41-50 kDa) and a small (28 kDa) fragment (3,4). The cleavage of lamins results in nuclear disregulation and cell death (5,6).
