Applications/Dilutions

Dilutions
  • Western Blot 1:100-1:2000
  • Immunohistochemistry 1:10-1:500
  • Immunohistochemistry-Frozen 1:10-1:500
  • Immunoprecipitation 1:10-1:500
Application Notes
Immunohistology – frozen (paraffin not tested)Western blotting – detects a 350kD band on western blots but also detects smaller degradation products of huntingtin. This clone recognizes both denatured and native huntingtin in human brain.
Positive Control
Brain Lysate (NB820-59177)

Reactivity Notes

Cross-reacts with Human, Rabbit and Mouse. Please note that this antibody is reactive to Mouse and derived from the same host, Mouse. Additional Mouse on Mouse blocking steps may be required for IHC and ICC experiments. Please contact Technical Support for more information.

Background

The combined use of clones HDC8A4, HDB4E10 and HDA3E10 demonstrate that huntingtin is enriched in neuronal cells in the brain.
