重组Anti-PAK2抗体[EP796Y] (ab76293)

False colour image of Western blot: Anti-PAK2 antibody [EP796Y] staining at 1/5000 dilution, shown in green; Mouse anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] (ab8245) loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in red. In Western blot, ab76293 was shown to bind specifically to PAK2. A band was observed at 65 kDa in wild-type HEK-293T cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in PAK2 CRISPR-Cas9 edited cell line ab282648 (CRISPR-Cas9 edited cell lysate ab283047). The band observed in the CRISPR-Cas9 edited lysate lane below 65 kDa is likely to represent a truncated form of PAK2. This has not been investigated further and the functional properties of the gene product have not been determined. To generate this image, wild-type and PAK2 CRISPR-Cas9 edited HEK-293T cell lysates were analysed. First, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 3 % milk in TBS-0.1 % Tween^® 20 (TBS-T) before incubation with primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C. Blots were washed four times in TBS-T, incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times then imaged. Secondary antibodies used were Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L 800CW and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L 680RD at 1/20000 dilution.

Lanes 1- 2: Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab76293 observed at 60 kDa. Red - Anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] - Loading Control (ab8245) observed at 37 kDa.

 ab76293 was shown to react with PAK2 in wild-type HeLa cells in western blot. Loss of signal was observed when knockout cell line ab264814 (knockout cell lysate ab257573) was used. Wild-type HeLa and PAK2 knockout HeLa cell lysates were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Membrane was blocked for 1 hour at room temperature in 0.1% TBST with 3% non-fat dried milk. ab76293 and Anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] - Loading Control (ab8245) were incubated overnight at 4°C at a 1 in 1000 dilution and a 1 in 20000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye^®800CW) preadsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye^®680RD) preadsorbed (ab216776) secondary antibodies at 1 in 20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

Unpurified ab76293 was shown to specifically react with PAK2 when PAK2 knockout samples were used. Wild-type and PAK2 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab76293 and ab8245 (loading control to GAPDH) were diluted 1/1000 and 1/10000 respectively and incubated overnight at 4°C.
