Exposure time: 15 secondsab218624 was shown to specifically react with Rab5 in wild-type HAP1 cells as signal was lost in Rab5 knockout cells. Wild-type and Rab5 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Ab218624 and ab181602 (Human anti-GAPDH loading control) were incubated overnight at 4°C at 1/1000 dilution and 1/200000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG, (H+L), Peroxidase conjugated (ab97051) secondary antibody at 1/100,000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging. The blot was developed on a BIO-RAD® ChemiDoc™ MP instrumentusing the ECL technique.
