Anti-Nestin Antikörper [Ratte-401 (4D4)] (A281649)

Anti-Nestin Antibody [Rat-401 (4D4)]

Mouse monoclonal [Rat-401 (4D4)] antibody to Nestin.

This antibody recognises rat nestin, a large intermediate filament protein transiently expressed in embryonic glian cells. It is predominately expressed in stem cells of the developing nervous system. Terminal differentiation is associated with a loss of nestin expression. Nestin expression has also been noted in other embryonic tissues, also in most Glioblastoma multiformes and many melanomas.

WB, IHC-P, IF, IHC-Fr

IHC-Fr: 1:40 - 1:400, IHC-P: 1:40 - 1:400, We recommend perfusing tissues with 4% paraformaldehyde at pH 7.4 for light microscopy or with either 4% paraformaldehyde at pH 10.0 or 4% paraformaldehyde with 0.1% glutaraldehyde at pH 7.4 for EM.For ICC we recommend using cells fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde buffered with 50 mM sodium borate at pH 9.5. Mouse anti Rat Nestin antibody, clone Rat-401 reacts with a band at 200-220 kDa in reducing gels of newborn rat or mouse cell extracts.For WB it is recommended that samples should be boiled in 4 volumes of 125 mM Tris, pH 6.8, 10% 2-mercaptoethanol, 10% glycerol and 4.6% SDS. Membranes should be blocked with milk or BSA. 5% PAGE gels are suggested.
