Performed under reducing conditions.
Predicted band size: 51 kDa
Observed band size: 53 kDa why is the actual band size different from the predicted?Lanes 1 - 4: Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab125001 observed at 53 kDa. Red - loading control ab8245 (Mouse anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5]) observed at 37kDa.
ab125001 was shown to react with Anti-Retinoid X Receptor alpha in HCT 116 wild-type cells in western blot with loss of signal observed in RXRA knockout cell line ab273708 (RXRA knockout cell lysate ab275245). HCT 116 wild-type and RXRA knockout cell lysates were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Membranes were blocked in 3% milk in TBS-T (0.1% Tween®) before incubation with ab125001 and ab8245 (Mouse anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5]) overnight at 4°C at a 1 in 1000 dilution and a 1 in 20000 dilution respectively. Blots were incubated 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 in 20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

Immunocytochemistry analysis of MCF7 (Human breast adenocarcinoma epithelial cell) cells labeling Retinoid X Receptor alpha/RXRA with Purified ab125001 at 1:500 dilution. Cells were fixed in 4% Paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with 0.1% tritonX-100. Cells were counterstained with Ab195889 Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Microtubule Marker (Alexa Fluor ® 594) 1:200 (2.5 μg/ml). ab150077 Goat anti rabbit IgG(Alexa Fluor ® 488) was used as the secondary antibody at 1:1000 dilution. DAPI nuclear counterstain. PBS instead of the primary antibody was used as the secondary antibody only control.
