BST2/Tetherin was immunoprecipitated from 0.35 mg HeLa (human epithelial cell line from cervix adenocarcinoma) whole cell lysate with ab243230 at 1/40 dilution. Western blot was perfromed on the immunoprecipitate using ab243230 at 1/1000 dilution. VeriBlot for IP Detection Reagent (HRP) (ab131366) was used afor detection at 1/5000 dilution.
Lane 1: HeLa whole cell lysate 10 µg (input)
Lane 2: ab243230 IP in HeLa whole cell lysate.
Lane 3: Rabbit monoclonal IgG (ab172730) instead of ab243230 in HeLa whole cell lysate.Blocking and dilution buffer and concentration: 5% NFDM/TBST
Exposure time: 3 seconds. -
Flow cytometric analysis of HeLa (human epithelial cell line from cervix adenocarcinoma) cell line labeling BST2/Tetherin with ab243230 at 1/700 dilution (Red) compared with a Rabbit IgG, monoclonal [EPR25A] - Isotype Control (ab172730) (black) and an unlabeled control (cells without incubation with primary antibody and secondary antibody) (blue). Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150077) at 1/2000 dilution was used as the secondary antibody. Gated on viable cells.

Immunofluorescent analysis of 4% paraformaldehyde-fixed, 0.1% Triton X-100 permeabilized U-937 (human histiocytic lymphoma cell line) cells labeling BST2/Tetherin with ab243230 at 1/100 dilution, followed by Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150077) secondary antibody (Green). Confocal image showing cytoplasmic staining in U-937 cells (PMID: 20529266).
The nuclear counter stain is DAPI (blue). Tubulin is detected with Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Microtubule Marker (Alexa Fluor® 594) (ab195889) (red) at 1/200 dilution.
Secondary antibody only control: Used PBS instead of primary antibody, secondary antibody is Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150077) secondary antibody at 1/1000 dilution.

Predicted band size: 20 kDa
Observed band size: 35,70 kDa why is the actual band size different from the predicted?
Exposure time: 48 secondsBlocking/Diluting buffer and concentration: 5% NFDM/TBST
The expression profile/ molecular weight observed is consistent with what has been described in the literature (PMID: 19196977; PMID: 19737401).
BST2/Tetherin is a glycosylated protein, its calculated MW is 20 kDa, and the observed MW is 35 kDa, which is consistent with the literature.
Both 35 and 70 kDa bands were detected under the reducing condition, whereas under the non-reducing condition, only the 70 kDa band was detected.
