TUBA1B Antibody

Mouse anti-Alpha-Tubulin Antibody, Tubulin alpha-1B chain, Tubulin alpha-ubiquitous chain, Alpha-tubulin ubiquitous, Tubulin K-alpha-1, TUBA1B, tubulin loading control

Anti-Tubulin Loading Control Antibody was produced by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues near the C terminal end of human alpha tubulin protein.

Anti-Tubulin Loading Control Antibody was purified by Protein A chromatography. This Loading Control antibody is directed against alpha tubulin. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest antibody reactivity with alpha tubulin from a wide range of organisms, including avian, mammalian aquatic, parasitic and alga sources based on 100% homology for the immunogen sequence. Cross reactivity will occur with all isoforms of alpha tubulin. Such broad reactivity makes this antibody useful as an excellent loading control.

Store Anti-Tubulin Antibody at -20° C prior to opening. Aliquot Loading Control Antibody and freeze at -20° C or below for extended storage. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing. Centrifuge Tubulin Loading Control Antibody if not completely clear after standing at room temperature. This Anti-Tubulin Loading Control Antibody is stable for several weeks at 4° C as an undiluted liquid. Dilute only prior to immediate use.

Anti-Tubulin Antibody has been tested for use in ELISA, immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence microscopy and western blot. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. Expect a band at ~50 kDa in size corresponding to alpha tubulin by western blotting in most cell lysates or extracts.
