Simple Western™ analysis of lysates (0.1 mg/mL) from Hela cells using β-Actin (8H10D10) Mouse mAb #3700. The virtual lane view (left) shows a single target band (as indicated) at 1:10 and 1:50 dilutions of primary antibody. The corresponding electropherogram view (right) plots chemiluminescence by molecular weight along the capillary at 1:10 (blue line) and 1:50 (green line) dilutions of primary antibody. This experiment was performed under reducing conditions on the Jess™ Simple Western instrument from ProteinSimple, a BioTechne brand, using the 12-230 kDa separation module.

Product Description

The Loading Control Antibody Sampler Kit provides an economical means to detect a variety of housekeeping proteins. The kit contains enough primary and secondary antibodies to perform two western blot experiments.

Specificity / Sensitivity

Each antibody in the Loading Control Antibody Sampler Kit detects endogenous levels of its target protein and does not typically cross-react with other proteins.

Source / Purification

Monoclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with synthetic peptides corresponding to residues near the amino terminus of human β-actin, the carboxy terminus of human histone H3, or with full-length chicken α-tubulin purfied from brain extracts. The epitope of α-Tubulin (DM1A) Mouse mAb recognizes residues surrounding Val440 of human α-tubulin protein.

Background

Housekeeping proteins perform numerous basic functions within the cell and are constitutively expressed at high levels in a variety of tissues and cell types. Western blot analysis commonly uses housekeeping proteins such as β-actin, histone H3, and α-tubulin as loading controls. Actin is a ubiquitous protein and a major component of the eukaryotic cytoskeleton. Actin exists mainly as the F-actin fibrous polymer (1). Globular tubulin subunits made up of α- and β-tubulin heterodimers are the building blocks of microtubules, one of three types of cytosolic fibers that comprise the cytoskeleton (2). Histone proteins, including histone H3, make up the primary building block of chromatin known as nucleosomes. Modulation of the chromatin structure plays an important role in the regulation of transcription in eukaryotes (3).
