Application

Anti-Polycystin-2 Antibody is an antibody against Polycystin-2 for use in WB, IC, IH.
Research Category
Metabolism
Research Sub Category
Renal Physiology
Western blot: 1:500 using ECL. The antibody reacts with the 105 kDa Polycystin-2 protein. Suggested blocking buffer is 10% normal goat serum (or same host as your secondary antibody), 1% BSA in 0.1M PBS with 0.05% Tween 20. Suggested dilution buffer is 1% normal goat serum (or same host as your secondary antibody), 1% BSA in 0.1M PBS with 0.05% Tween 20. Preferred gel percentage is 4-12% gradient gel.

Immunocytochemistry: 1:1,000

Immunohistochemistry: 1:1,000 overnight at 2-8°C using a fluorescently labeled secondary antibody. Suggested fixative is 4% paraformaldehyde in 0.1M PBS (one hour). Suggested permeablization method is 0.05% Triton X-100 in dilution buffer. Suggested blocking buffer is 10% normal goat serum (or same host as your secondary antibody) and 1% BSA in 0.1M PBS. Suggested dilution buffer is 1% normal goat serum (or same host as your secondary antibody) and 1% BSA in 0.1M PBS.

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by the end user.

Physical form

Rabbit serum. Liquid.

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is caused by inactivating mutations in PKD1 (85%) or PKD2 (15%). The ADPKD proteins encoded by these genes, polycystin-1 (PC1) and polycystin-2 (PC2), form a plasma membrane receptor-ion channel complex. However, the mechanisms controlling

Directional beating of ependymal (E) cells' cilia in the walls of the ventricles in the brain is essential for proper CSF flow. E cells display two forms of planar cell polarity (PCP): rotational polarity of individual cilium and translational polarity
