    Western blot - Anti-LIMK2 antibody [EP969Y] - C-terminal (ab45165)

    Lane 1: Wild-type HAP1 whole cell lysate (40 µg)
    Lane 2: LIMK2 (LIMK2) knockout HAP1 whole cell lysate (40 µg)
    Lane 3: Jurkat whole cell lysate (40 µg)

    Lanes 1 - 3: Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab45165 observed at 72 kDa. Red - loading control, ab9484, observed at 37 kDa.

    ab45165 was shown to specifically recognize LIMK2 (LIMK2) in wild-type HAP1 cells along with additional cross-reactive bands. No band was observed with knockout cells were examined. Wild-type and LIMK2 (LIMK2) knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Ab45165 and ab9484 (Mouse anti GAPDH loading control) were incubated overnight at 4°C at 1/2000 dilution and 1/20,000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed (ab216776) secondary antibodies at 1/20,000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

    Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence analysis of Ramos cells labeling LIMK2 with ab45165 at 1/250. Goat anti rabbit IgG(Alexa Fluor® 488); ab150077 at 1/1000 dilution was used as the secondary antibody. Cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilised with 0.1% tritonX-100. DAPI (blue) was used as a nuclear counterstain.
