VDAC1 Antibody

Rabbit anti-VDAC/Porin antibody, VDAC-1 Loading Control Antibody, Porin Loading Control Antibody, VDAC-1 Antibody, VDAC1 Antibody, POR1 Antibody, Porin Antibody, Voltage-dependent anion-selective channel protein 1, Outer mitochondrial membrane protein porin 1

VDAC/Porin Antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide corresponding to an internal region near amino acids 175-200 of Human VDAC1/Porin1.

Anti-VDAC/Porin Antibody is directed against human VDAC1/Porin1 protein. The product was affinity purified from monospecific antiserum by immunoaffinity purification. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest that this antibody would react with VDAC1/Porin1 from a wide range or organisms, including avian, mammalian, aquatic and reptilian sources based on 100% homology for the immunogen sequence. Cross reactivity will occur with all forms of VDACs including VDAC1, VDAC2 (4 isoforms) and VDAC3 (2 isoforms) . Such broad reactivity makes this antibody useful as an excellent loading control (mitochondrial) .

Store vial at -20° C or below prior to opening. This vial contains a relatively low volume of reagent (25 μL) . To minimize loss of volume dilute 1:10 by adding 225 μL of the buffer stated above directly to the vial. Recap, mix thoroughly and briefly centrifuge to collect the volume at the bottom of the vial. Use this intermediate dilution when calculating final dilutions as recommended below. Store the vial at -20°C or below after dilution. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing.

VDAC/Porin Antibody has been tested for use in ELISA and western blot. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. Expect a band at ~30-33 kDa in size corresponding to VDAC/Porin by western blotting in the appropriate cell lysate or extract.
