Merck, 05-379, Anti-E2F-1 Antibody, clones KH20 and KH95

General description
55 kDa
E2F-1 was identified as a cellular protein with DNA binding activity associated with the adenovirus E2 gene promoter. The original member of the E2F family of transcription factors, now consisting of five, was identified through its association with the retinoblastoma protein, which controls its activity. E2F-1 is cell cycle regulated with very low levels in early G1 then increasing levels as cells move from G1 to S with highest levels of protein at the G1/S boundary, which is consistent with its role in S-phase entry.
Immunogen

Preparation Note
Maintain for 2 years at -20°C from date of shipment. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
Analysis Note
Immunoblot Analysis: 0.5-2μg/ml of this antibody detected E2F-1 in a HeLa nuclear extract.
Immunoprecipitation: 4μg of this antibody immunoprecipitated E2F-1 from HeLa nuclear extract.
Gel Shift: The KH20 clone has been shown to gel shift the E2F-1/DP-1/DNA complex (Helin, 1993; Wu, 2000).
Control
Positive Antigen Control: Catalog #12-309, Hela cell nuclear extract. Add an equal volume of Laemmli reducing sample buffer to 10 μL of extract and boil for 5 minutes to reduce the preparation. Load 20 μg of reduced extract per lane for minigels.
