Product Usage Information

Application Dilution
Western Blotting 1:1000
Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin) 1:1000 - 1:4000
Immunofluorescence (Immunocytochemistry) 1:2000

Storage

Supplied at 1 mg/mL in PBS containing 0.09% sodium azide. Store at -20°C. This product will freeze at -20°C so it is recommended to aliquot into single-use vials to avoid multiple freeze/thaw cycles. A slight precipitate may be present, but will not interfere with antibody performance. This product is stable for 36 months when stored at -20C.

Specificity / Sensitivity

Lamin A (133A2) Mouse mAb recognizes endogenous levels of total lamin A protein. It also reacts with large fragments of lamin A (50 kDa) produced by caspase cleavage during apoptosis. This antibody does not cross-react with lamin C.

Species Reactivity:

Human

Source / Purification

Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with recombinant protein specific to the carboxy terminus of human lamin A protein.

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 dysregulation and cell death (5,6).

Species Reactivity

Species reactivity is determined by testing in at least one approved application (e.g., western blot).

Western Blot Buffer

IMPORTANT: For western blots, incubate membrane with diluted primary antibody in 5% w/v BSA, 1X TBS, 0.1% Tween® 20 at 4°C with gentle shaking, overnight.
