Western blot of purified anti-g protocadherin A (pan reactive) antibody (clone N144/32). Lane 1: Molecular weight marker; Lane 2: 20 µg of human brain membrane lysate; Lane 3: 20 µg of mouse brain membrane lysate; Lane 4: 20 µg of rat brain membrane lysate; Lane 5: 20 µg of embryonic mouse brain lysate. The blot was incubated with 5 µg/mL of the primary antibodies overnight at 4°C, followed by incubation with HRP labeled goat anti-mouse IgG (Cat. No. 405301). Enhanced chemiluminescence was used as the detection system.

IHC staining of purified anti-g protocadherin A (pan reactive) antibody (clone N144/32) on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded rat brain tissue. Following antigen retrieval using Sodium Citrate H.I.E.R (Cat. No. 928602), the tissue was incubated with 10 µg/ml of the primary antibody overnight at 4°C. BioLegend´s Ultra-Streptavidin (USA) HRP kit (Multi-Species, DAB, Cat. No. 929901) was used for detection followed by hematoxylin counterstaining, according to the protocol provided. The image was captured with a 40X objective.

Protocadherins are a group of self adhering molecules belonging to the cadherin superfamily of proteins. They are predominantly expressed in neurons in widely diverse array. Unlike cadherin proteins, protocadherins do not bind to intracellular catenin molecules.
This monoclonal antibody was raised against a fusion protein corresponding to amino acids 720-804 (variable cytoplasmic domain) of mouse Gamma protocadherin-A3.
Formulation
Phosphate-buffered solution.
Preparation
The antibody was purified by affinity chromatography.
Concentration
1 mg/ml
Storage & Handling
The antibody solution should be stored undiluted between 2°C and 8°C. Please note the storage condition for this antibody has been changed from -20°C to between 2°C and 8°C. You can also check your vial or your CoA to find the most accurate storage condition for this antibody.
Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by Western blotting. For Western blotting, the suggested use of this reagent is 5.0 - 10.0 µg per ml. For immunohistochemistry on paraffin-embedded tissue, a concentration range of 10.0 µg/ml is suggested. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.
Application Notes
This antibody is effective in immunoblotting (WB) and formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded immunohistochemical staining (IHC-P).
