This affinity purified antibody has been tested for use in western blotting against HEK293 whole cell lysates. The antibody is also functional by ELISA. Dilutions for western blotting represent a starting point dilution and further optimization may be required. The antibody detects a band of approximately 96.0 kDa (predicted molecular weight: 72.2 kDa). Specific band detection by western blot is blocked by pre-incubating the antibody with the immunizing peptide prior to reaction with the membrane. Reactivity in other immunoassays is unknown.
