Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-MSH6 antibody [EPR3945] - BSA and Azide free (ab214454)
Immunohistochemical staining of paraffin embedded human colon with unpurified ab92471 at a dilution of 1/500. A pre-diluted HRP polymer for rabbit/mouse IgG was used as the secondary antibody and the sample was counter-stained with hematoxylin. Antigen retrieval was perfomed using Tris-EDTA buffer, pH 9.0. PBS was used instead of the primary antibody as the negative control, and is shown in the inset.
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab92471).

All lanes : Anti-MSH6 antibody [EPR3945] (ab92471) at 1/1000 dilution
Lane 1 : Wild-type HeLa cell lysate
Lane 2 : MSH6 knockout HeLa cell lysate
Lysates/proteins at 20 µg per lane.
Performed under reducing conditions.
Predicted band size: 163 kDa
Observed band size: 160 kDa why is the actual band size different from the predicted?This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation (ab92471).
Lanes 1- 2: Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab92471 observed at 160 kDa. Red - Anti-Vinculin antibody [VIN-54] observed at 124 kDa.
ab92471 was shown to react with MSH6 in wild-type HeLa cells in western blot. Loss of signal was observed when knockout cell line ab255410 (knockout cell lysate ab263763) was used. Wild-type HeLa and MSH6 knockout HeLa cell lysates were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Membrane was blocked for 1 hour at room temperature in 0.1% TBST with 3% non-fat dried milk. ab92471 and Anti-Vinculin antibody [VIN-54] overnight at 4°C at a 1 in 1000 dilution and a 1 in 20000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye®800CW) preadsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye®680RD) preadsorbed (ab216776) secondary antibodies at 1 in 20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

ab92471 staining MSH6 in wild-type HAP1 cells (top panel) and MSH6 knockout HAP1 cells (bottom panel). The cells were fixed with 4% formaldehyde (10min), permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 5 minutes and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated with ab92471 at 1μg/ml and ab195889 at 1/250 dilution (shown in pseudocolour red) overnight at +4°C, followed by a further incubation at room temperature for 1h with a goat secondary antibody to Rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150081) at 2 μg/ml (shown in green). Nuclear DNA was labelled in blue with DAPI.
Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8).

Lanes 1 - 4: Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab92471 observed at 160 kDa. Red - loading control, ab18058, observed at 124 kDa.
ab92471 was shown to specifically react with MSH6 in wild-type HAP1 cells. No band was observed when MSH6 knockout samples were used. Wild-type and MSH6 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab92471 and ab18058 (loading control to Vinculin) were diluted at 1/1000 and 1/10 000 respectively and incubated overnight at 4°C. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preadsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preadsorbed (ab216776) secondary antibodies at 1/10 000 dilution for 1 h at room temperature before imaging. -
