A working dilution of 1:30,000 to 1:150,000 is suggested for this product. Storage: Aliquot contents and freeze at -20° C or below. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing. Centrifuge product if not completely clear after standing at room temperature. This product is stable for several weeks at 4° C as an undiluted liquid. Properties Form Liquid Storage instructions Shipped at 4°C. Upon delivery aliquot and store at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze / thaw cycles. Storage buffer pH: 7.20 Preservative: 0.01% Sodium azide Constituents: 0.42% Potassium phosphate, 0.87% Sodium chloride Purity Preadsorbed IgG fraction Purification notes This product is an IgG fraction antibody purified from monospecific antiserum by a multi-step process which includes delipidation, salt fractionation and ion exchange chromatography followed by extensive dialysis against the buffer stated above. Assay by immunoelectrophoresis resulted in a single precipitin arc against anti-Rabbit Serum as well as purified and partially purified Catalase [Bovine liver].

Fix in 4%PFA/20mM PIPES pH6.8/100mM NaCl/30mM Glucose/2mM MgCl2/1mM EGTA. Target Function Occurs in almost all aerobically respiring organisms and serves to protect cells from the toxic effects of hydrogen peroxide. Promotes growth of cells including T-cells, B-cells, myeloid leukemia cells, melanoma cells, mastocytoma cells and normal and transformed fibroblast cells. Involvement in disease Acatalasemia Sequence similarities Belongs to the catalase family. Post-translational modifications The N-terminus is blocked. Cellular localization Peroxisome. Anti-Catalase antibody images ab1877 at a dilution of 1/200 staining Hydrogen peroxide treated HeLa cells (1mM, 1hr) by immunocytochemistry. The antibody was incubated with the cells for 2 hours and then detected using a Cy5 conjugated antirabbit antibody. This image is courtesy of an Abreview submitted by Jinhee Kim on 30 January 2006.

The antibody was incubated with the Protein G beads for 10min under agitation. No antibody was added to the control (lane 2). Hela whole cell extract diluted in RIPA buffer was added Immunoprecipitation - Anti-Catalase antibody - to each sample and incubated for 10min Peroxisome Marker (ab1877) under agitation. Proteins were eluted by addition of 40µl SDS loading buffer and incubated for 10min at 70oC; 10µl of each sample was separated on a SDS PAGE gel, transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane, blocked with 5% BSA and probed with ab1877.
