Designed for immunoprecipitation applications. This product is blocked with BSA to reduce non-specific binding and cannot be used for purification; best for mouse IgG2a and IgG2b and rabbit IgG.
Protein A conjugated to agarose.
Physical form
In PBS.
Other Notes
Agarose solutions are supplied ready-to-use for immunoprecipitation. Use 15 µl suspension/µg primary antibody. Protein A-Agarose is recommended for use in immunoprecipitation assays using rabbit polyclonal antibodies or unmodified mouse IgG2a or IgG2b monoclonal antibodies. Mouse IgG1 or IgG3 and all rat antibodies bind poorly to Protein A. As an alternative, use Protein G PLUS, Protein G PLUS/Protein A, or rabbit second-step antibodies to bridge these antibodies to Protein A. Preclearing will minimize extra bands resulting from nonspecific precipitation. To preclear, add to the sample 20 µl of agarose conjugate and 1 µg of normal IgG from the same species as the immunoprecipitating antibody. When immunoblotting is used for detection, some secondary antibodies can react nonspecifically with BSA or other proteins present at high concentrations in the sample. This can be eliminated by reducing the concentration of secondary antibody.

Protein arginine methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1), PRMT4, and PRMT5 catalyze the methylation of arginine residues on target proteins. Previous work suggests that these enzymes regulate skeletal muscle plasticity. However, the function of PRMTs during disuse-induced muscle remodeling is unknown. The purpose
A distinct combination of transcription factors elicits the acquisition of a specific fate and the initiation of a differentiation program. Multiciliated cells (MCCs) are a specialized type of epithelial cells that possess dozens of motile cilia on their apical surface.

Many enzymes are self-regulated and can either inhibit or enhance their own catalytic activity. Enzymes that do both are extremely rare. Many protein kinases autoactivate by autophosphorylating specific sites at their activation loop and are inactivated by phosphatases. Although mitogen-activated
