The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user. Application Abreviews Notes ICC/IF Use a concentration of 1 µg/ml. WB Use a concentration of 1 µg/ml. Detects a band of approximately 117 kDa (predicted molecular weight: 117 kDa). Good results were obtained when blocked with 5% non-fat dry milk in 0.05% PBS-T. 1 Application Abreviews Notes IHC-P 1/100. Target Function Major E3 ligase for ISG15 conjugation. Acts as a positive regulator of innate antiviral response in cells induced by interferon. Makes part of the ISGylation machinery that recognizes target proteins in a broad and relatively non-specific manner. Catalyzes ISGylation of IRF3 which results in sustained activation, it attenuates IRF3-PIN1 interaction, which antagonizes IRF3 ubiquitination and degradation, and boosts the antiviral response. Catalyzes ISGylation of influenza A viral NS1 which attenuates virulence; ISGylated NS1 fails to form homodimers and thus to interact with its RNA targets. Catalyzes ISGylation of papillomavirus type 16 L1 protein which results in dominant-negative effect on virus infectivity. Physically associated with polyribosomes, broadly modifies newly synthesized proteins in a cotranslational manner. In an interferon-stimulated cell, newly translated viral proteins are primary targets of ISG15. Tissue specificity Expressed in testis and to a lesser degree in brain, ovary and placenta. Found in most tissues at low levels. Sequence similarities Contains 1 HECT (E6AP-type E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase) domain. Contains 5 RCC1 repeats. Post-translational modifications ISGylated. Cellular localization Cytoplasm > perinuclear region. Associated with the polyribosomes, probably via the 60S subunit.

We are unsure as to the identity of these extra bands.Gel concentration: 6-18% ICC/IF image of ab83853 stained HeLa cells. The cells were 4% formaldehyde (10 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block nonspecific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab83853, 1µg/ml) overnight at +4°C.
