Product overview
Abcam’s knockout cell pellets give you access to native proteins, without the need to culture cells. Our knockout cell pellets are prepared from our single-gene knockout cell lines and provide an additional offering to our cell lysates.
Cells are snap-frozen to provide high quality pellets that are suitable for extraction with alternative lysis buffers or for preparation of lysates from subcellular fractions. Our knockout cell pellets are suitable for a variety of applications, including PCR, gene expression profiling and DNA library preparation. -

Western blot - Human EIF2AK4 (GCN2) knockout HEK293T cell pellet (ab279233)Lane 1: Wild-type HEK-293T cell lysate (20µg)
Lane 2: EIF2AK4 knockout HEK-293T cell lysate (20µg)
Lanes 1- 2: Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab134053 observed at 187 kDa. Red - loading control ab7291 observed at 50 kDa.
ab134053 Anti-GCN2 antibody [EPR5970(2)] was shown to specifically react with GCN2 in wild-type HEK-293T cells in western blot. Loss of signal was observed when knockout cell line ab267246 (knockout cell lysate ab256902) was used. Wild-type and GCN2 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab134053 and Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Loading Control (ab7291) were incubated overnight at 4°C at 1 in 1000 and 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. -
