Purity Immunogen affinity purified Clonality Polyclonal Isotype IgG Applications Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab90169 in the following tested applications. The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user. Application Abreviews Notes 1 Application Abreviews Notes ICC/IF Use a concentration of 5 µg/ml. WB Use a concentration of 1 µg/ml. Detects a band of approximately 73 kDa (predicted molecular weight: 66 kDa).Can be blocked with Mouse Lamin B1 peptide (ab16375). Target Function Lamins are components of the nuclear lamina, a fibrous layer on the nucleoplasmic side of the inner nuclear membrane, which is thought to provide a framework for the nuclear envelope and may also interact with chromatin. Involvement in disease Defects in LMNB1 are the cause of leukodystrophy demyelinating autosomal dominant adultonset (ADLD) [MIM:169500]. ADLD is a slowly progressive and fatal demyelinating leukodystrophy, presenting in the fourth or fifth decade of life. Clinically characterized by early autonomic abnormalities, pyramidal and cerebellar dysfunction, and symmetric demyelination of the CNS. It differs from multiple sclerosis and other demyelinating disorders in that neuropathology shows preservation of oligodendroglia in the presence of subtotal demyelination and lack of astrogliosis. Sequence similarities Belongs to the intermediate filament family. Post-translational modifications B-type lamins undergo a series of modifications, such as farnesylation and phosphorylation. Increased phosphorylation of the lamins occurs before envelope disintegration and probably plays a role in regulating lamin associations. Cellular localization Nucleus inner membrane. Anti-Lamin B1 antibody images 2 Predicted band size : 66 kDa Lanes 1, 3 and 5: Wild-type HAP1 nuclear lysate (20 µg) Lanes 2, 4 and 6: Lamin B1 knockout HAP1 nuclear lysate (20 µg) Lanes 1 and 2: Green signal from target ab90169 observed at 75 kDa Lanes 3 and 4: Red signal from loading control - ab10799 observed at 18 kDa Western blot - Anti-Lamin B1 antibody (ab90169) Lanes 5 and 6: Merged (red and green) signal ab90169 was shown to specifically react with lamin B1 when lamin B1 knockout samples were used (in which a mutation has induced an N-terminal truncation of lamin B1). Wildtype and lamin B1 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab90169 and ab10799 (loading control to histone H3) were both diluted at 1/1000 and incubated overnight at 4°C. Blots were developed with goat anti-rabbit IgG (H + L) and goat antimouse IgG (H + L) secondary antibodies at 1/10 000 dilution for 1 h at room temperature before imaging. 3 All lanes : Anti-Lamin B1 antibody (ab90169) at 1 µg/ml Lane 1 : HeLa (Human epithelial carcinoma cell line) Whole Cell Lysate Lane 2 : Jurkat (Human T cell lymphoblastlike cell line) Whole Cell Lysate Lane 3 : A431 (Human epithelial carcinoma cell line) Whole Cell Lysate Lysates/proteins at 20 µg per lane.

Predicted band size : 66 kDa Observed band size : 73 kDa Additional bands at : 28 kDa,37 kDa,50 kDa. We are unsure as to the identity of these extra bands. Exposure time : 4 minutes ICC/IF image of ab90169 stained HepG2 cells. The cells were 4% PFA fixed (10 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal Goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBSTween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody ab90169 at 5ug overnight at Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence Lamin B1 antibody (ab90169) +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488 Goat anti- chicken IgY (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red) at a 1/200 dilution for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM. 4 Anti-Lamin B1 antibody (ab90169) at 1 µg/ml + NIH 3T3 (Mouse embryonic fibroblast cell line) Whole Cell Lysate at 10 µg Secondary Goat polyclonal Secondary Antibody to Chicken IgY - H&L (HRP) at 1/3000 dilution developed using the ECL technique Performed under reducing conditions.
