"TC Supernatant" vs. "Purified"

TC Supernatant
Hybridoma tissue-culture supernatant (5mL) generally containing 10-50 ug/mL monoclonal antibody (clone-dependent) can be a very economical choice. Supernatant is suitable for most applications including Western Blot, immunocytochemistry, immunohistochemistry etc. For applications requiring higher antibody concentration or purity (such as immunoprecipitation, microinjection, or conjugation) it is recommended that you purchase the purified form of the antibody (supplied at 1mg/mL).

Purified mAbs
Produced by in vitro bioreactor culture of hybridoma lines followed by Protein A affinity chromatography. Purified mAbs are >90% specific antibody at 1mg/mL.

Antibody Type:

Monoclonal

Host Species:

Mouse

Antibody Isotype:

IgG2a

Species Reactivity:

Human Rat

Applications:

IHC IP WB

Target Description:

Neurofascin is encoded by the gene NFASC. Two major isoforms of NeuroFascin are expressed as a result of alternative splicing, NF186 and NF155. These proteins are expressed in the central nervous system. In brain, NF186 is expressed at Nodes of Ranvier andNF155 is expressed in unmyelinated axons. Neuofascin plays a role in cell adhesion and is thought to be involved in processes such as neurite extension, synaptogenesis and myelination. Diseases associated with this gene include Demyelinating Polyneuropathy.

Immunogen:

Lipid raft fractions isolated from adult rat brain. Target identified as Neurofascin by: - binding to NF-186-tranfected COS cells- recognition of NF155 and NF186 but not other highly related L1 CAMs like NrCAM- immunoprecipitation of NF155 and NF186 and confirmation by mass spectrometry - loss of immunostaining against NF186-shRNA knockdown samples Rat: amino acids 25-1110 (extracellular domain common to NF155 and NF186); Mouse: 98% identity (1074/1086 amino acids identical); Human: 79% identity (955/1195 amino acids identical)
