Flow cytometric analysis of THP-1 (Human monocytic leukemia monocyte, left)/ HeLa (human cervix adenocarcinoma epithelial cell, right) cells labelling MICA with ab259934 at 1/50 dilution (1ug) (Red) compared with a Rabbit monoclonal IgG (ab172730) isotype control (Black) and an unlabelled control (cells without incubation with primary antibody and secondary antibody) (Blue). Goat anti rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488, ab150077) at 1/2000 dilution was used as the secondary antibody.
Negative control: THP-1 (PMID: 28154561).
Gated on viable cells.

Secondary
All lanes : Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG, (H+L), Peroxidase conjugated (ab97051) at 1/20000 dilution
Predicted band size: 43 kDa
Observed band size: 60 kDa why is the actual band size different from the predicted?Blocking and diluting buffer and concentration: 5% NFDM/TBST.
Negative control: THP-1 (PMID: 28154561).
MICA is a glycoprotein and can be de-glycosylated by PNGase F. The molecular mass observed is consistent with the literature (PMID: 10359807, 9396860).
Exposure time: 3 minutes.

MICA was immunoprecipitated from 0.35 mg HUVEC (human umbilical vein endothelial cell) whole cell lysate with ab259934 at 1/30 dilution (2ug in 0.35mg lysates). Western blot was performed on the immunoprecipitate using ab259934 at 1/1000 dilution. VeriBlot for IP Detection Reagent (HRP)(ab131366) was used at 1/5000 dilution.
