Lanes 1 - 2: Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab66340 observed at 63 kDa. Red - loading control ab181602 (Rabbit Anti-GAPDH antibody [EPR16891]) observed at 37 kDa.

ab66340 was shown to react with AMF in wild-type HEK-293T cells in Western blot with loss of signal observed in GPI knockout cell line ab266834 (GPI knockout cell lysate ab257458). Wild-type HEK-293T and GPI knockout cell lysates were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Membranes were blocked in 3 % milk in TBS-T (0.1 % Tween^®) before incubation with ab66340 and ab181602 (Rabbit Anti-GAPDH antibody [EPR16891]) overnight at 4 °C at a 1 in 1000 dilution and a 1 in 20000 dilution respectively. Blots were incubated with Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye^® 800CW) preabsorbed (ab216772) and Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye^® 680RD) preabsorbed (ab216777) secondary antibodies at 1 in 20000 dilution for 1 h at room temperature before imaging.

Overlay histogram showing HepG2 cells stained with ab66340 (red line). The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab66340, 1/100 dilution) for 30 min at 22°C. The secondary antibody used was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) (ab150113) at 1/2000 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was mouse IgG1 [ICIGG1] (ab91353, 1μg/1x10⁶ cells) used under the same conditions. Unlabelled sample (blue line) was also used as a control. Acquisition of >5,000 events were collected using a 20mW Argon ion laser (488nm) and 525/30 bandpass filter. This antibody gave a positive signal in HepG2 cells fixed with 80% methanol (5 min)/permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min used under the same conditions.

Green staining in image show positive staining with ab66340, actin filaments were stained red with DY-554 phalloidin and nuclei stained blue with DRAQ5 fluorescent DNA dye.

Sections were rehydrated and antigen retrieved with the Dako 3 in 1 AR buffer EDTA pH 9.0 in a DAKO PT link. Slides were peroxidase blocked in 3% H2O2 in methanol for 10 mins. They were then blocked with Dako Protein block for 10 minutes (containing casein 0.25% in PBS) then incubated with primary antibody for 20 min and detected with Dako envision flex amplification kit for 30 minutes. Colorimetric detection was completed with Diaminobenzidine for 5 minutes. Slides were counterstained with Haematoxylin and coverslipped under DePeX. Please note that, for manual staining, optimization of primary antibody concentration and incubation time is recommended. Signal amplification may be required.
