Opis

General description

50 kDa

Microtubules are involved in a wide variety of cellular activities ranging from mitosis and transport events to cell movement and the maintenance of cell shape. Tubulin itself is a globular protein which consists of two polypeptides (alpha and beta tubulin). Alpha and beta tubulin dimers are assembled to 13 protofilaments that form a microtubule of 22 nm diameter. Tyrosine ligase ads a C-terminal tyrosin to monomeric alpha tubulin. Assembled microtubules can again be detyrosinated by a cytoskeleton associated carboxypeptidase. Detyrosinated alpha tubulin is referred to as Glu-tubulin. Another post-translational modification of detyrosinated alpha tubulin is C-terminal polyglutamylation which is characteristic for microtubules in neuronal cells and the mitotic spindle.

Immunogen

Peptide corresponding to the C-terminal of Glu tubulin.

Application

Anti-Tubulin Antibody, Detyrosinated is an antibody against Tubulin for use in IC, IH(P) and WB.

Immunohistochemistry:
A previous lot was used on either frozen or paraffin embedded, fixed tissue (Gundersen, G.G., 1984): 1:200-1:500 dilution.

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by the end user.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Expected to cross-react with mammals, sea urchin, plants, not yeast (Paturle-Lafanechere, L., 1991).

The antibody specifically recognizes the detyrosinated form (Glu tubulin) of the tubulin alpha chain (Bianchi, M., 2006; Goulimari, P., 2005).

Physical form

Affinity purified immunoglobulin

Purified rabbit polyclonal in buffer containing liquid PBS.

Preparation Note

Stable for 6 months at -20°C in undiluted aliquots from date of receipt.

Handling Recommendations:
Upon first thaw, and prior to removing the cap, centrifuge the vial and gently mix the solution. Aliquot into microcentrifuge tubes and store at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles, which may damage IgG and affect product performance.

Analysis Note

Control
Hela Whole Cell Lysate.

Routinely evaluated by Western Blot on L6 lysate lysates.

Western Blot Analysis: 1:500 dilution of this lot detected detyrosinated tubulin on 10 μg of L6 lysate.

Other Notes

Concentration: Please refer to the Certificate of Analysis for the lot-specific concentration.
