Lane 1: Wild-type HAP1 whole cell lysate (20 µg)
Lane 2: MEK1 knockout HAP1 whole cell lysate (20 µg)
Lane 3: A431 whole cell lysate (20 µg)
Lane 4: HepG2 whole cell lysate (20 µg)Lanes 1 - 4: Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab32576 (unpurified) observed at 43 kDa. Red - loading control, ab18058, observed at 130 kDa.
ab32576 was shown to specifically react with MEK1 in wild-type HAP1 cells as signal was lost in MEK1 knockout cells. Wild-type and MEK1 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Ab32576 and ab18058 (Mouse anti-Vinculin loading control) were incubated overnight at 4°C at 1/10000 dilution and 1/20000 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 1/20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab32576).

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) analysis of Human kidney tissue sections labeling MEK1 with purified ab32576 at 1/100 dilution (3.28 µg/ml). Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed using ab93684 (Tris/EDTA buffer, pH 9.0). ImmunoHistoProbe one step HRP Polymer (ready to use) was used as the secondary antibody. Negative control: PBS instead of the primary antibody. Hematoxylin was used as a counterstain.

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence analysis of A431 (Human epidermoid carcinoma epithelial cell) cells labeling MEK1 with purified ab32576 at 1/50 dilution (6.6 µg/ml). Cells were fixed in 100% Methanol. Cells were counterstained with ab195889 Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Microtubule Marker (Alexa Fluor® 594) at 1:200 (2.5 µg/ml). Goat anti rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488, ab150077) was used as the secondary antibody at 1/1000 (2 µg/ml) dilution. DAPI (blue) was used as nuclear counterstain. PBS instead of the primary antibody was used as the secondary antibody only control.
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab32576).

Flow Cytometry analysis of HeLa (Human cervix adenocarcinoma epithelial cell) cells labeling MEK1 with purified ab32576 at 1/30 dilution (10 µg/ml) (red). Cells were fixed with 4% Paraformaldehyde and permeabilised with 90% Methanol. A Goat anti rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488, ab150077) secondary antibody was used at 1/2000. Isotype control - Rabbit monoclonal IgG (Black). Unlabeled control - Cell without incubation with primary antibody and secondary antibody (Blue).
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab32576). -
