Three different antipeptide antibodies were generated in chickens against sequences shared between the rat (AAM28438) and human (AAL28094) gene products. Antibodies were affinity-purified and mixed in equal concentration. These antibodies have been validated with human, mouse and rat tissues.

Volume: 1000 µL

Concentration: 300 µg/mL

Clonality: Polyclonal

Host Species: Chicken

Species Reactivity:Human, Mouse, Rat

Applications: ICC, IHC, WB

Protein Name / Synonyms: Tubulin beta-3 chain (Tubulin beta-4 chain) (Tubulin beta-III)

Target Description: Human Beta-Tubulin 3 is a 50,432 dalton structural protein (450 amino acid) expressed in neurons of the PNS and CNS. It contributes to microtubule stability in neuronal cell bodies and axons, and plays a role in axonal transport.

Gene ID: TUBB3 TUBB4

Antibody Registry ID (RRID): AB_2313564

Physical State: Liquid

Production Notes: Chickens were immunized with three synthetic peptide / keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) conjugates. These synthetic peptides corresponded to different regions of the β-Tubulin 3 gene product, but are shared between the human (NP_AAL28094, NCBI) and rat (AAM28438, NCBI) protein sequences. After repeated injections, immune eggs were collected, and the IgY fractions were purified from the yolks. These IgY fractions were then affinity-purified using a peptide column, and the concentrations of the eluates adjusted to 300 µg/mL. Finally, equal volumes of each of the three affinity-purified anti-peptide antibodies were mixed, and the preparation was filter-sterilized.

Validation and Application Notes

Molecular Weight: 50 kDa

Western Blot Dilution Range: 1:10000-1:20000

IHC Dilution Range: 1:2000-1:5000

Quality Control

Each of the three antibodies were analyzed by immunohistochemistry (at a dilution of 1:2000) using fluorescein-labeled goat anti-chicken IgY (1:500 dilution, Aves Labs Cat.# F-1005) as the secondary reagent.

Storage

Store at 4°C in the dark. Under these conditions, the antibodies should have a shelf life of at least 12 months (provided they remain sterile). Do not freeze these antibodies unless you want to store them for longer periods of time. Note, however, that each time an antibody preparation is frozen, about half of its binding activity is lost.

鸡的概念 在一次会议上，他与同事的一次谈话说服了西蒙博士再次尝试制造这种抗体，但是尝试把鸡作为宿主——鸡在进化上与包括人类在内的哺乳动物完全不同。结果表明:人蛋白抗原具有高度的免疫原性，抗体产量异常高，免疫试剂结合紧密，特异性高。 今天的Aves 从那时起，Aves Labs开创了在蛋白质中寻找高免疫原性肽序列的新算法，开发了针对鸡抗体的新的亲和纯化方法，并开发了许多其他有用的试剂，如BlokHen®阻断试剂和PrecipHen®免疫沉淀试剂。Aves实验室继续开发针对神经特异性抗原和表位标签的新型抗体试剂，以促进神经科学和分子生物学领域的科学进步。
