Description
General description
All ChIPAb+ antibodies are individually validated for chromatin precipitation, every lot, every time. Each ChIPAb+ antibody set includes control primers (tested every lot by qPCR) to biologically validate your IP results in a locus-specific context. The qPCR protocol and primer sequences are provided, allowing researchers to validate ChIP protocols when using our antibody in their chromatin context. Each set also includes a negative control antibody to ensure specificity of the ChIP reaction.
The ChIPAb+ E2F-1 set includes the E2F-1 antibody, a negative control normal mouse IgG, and qPCR primers which amplify a 100 bp region of human CDC2 promoter. The E2F-1 and negative controls are supplied in a scalable "per ChIP" reaction size and can be used to functionally validate the precipitation of E2F-1-associated chromatin.
~55 kDa
Immunogen
Epitope: a.a. 1-89 & 342-386
Application
Chromatin Immunoprecipitation:
Representative lot data.
Sonicated chromatin prepared from HeLa cells (1 X 10E6 cell equivalents per IP) were subjected to chromatin immunoprecipitation using 1 µL of either Normal Mouse IgG or 1 µL of Anti-E2F-1 and the Magna ChIP G Kit (Cat. # 17-611).
Successful immunoprecipitation of E2F-1-associated DNA fragments was verified by qPCR using ChIP Primers, human CDC2 promoter as a positive locus, and an intergenic region near human CALML5 as a negative locus. (Please see figures). Data is presented as percent input of each IP sample relative to input chromatin for each amplicon and ChIP sample as indicated.
Please refer to the EZ-Magna ChIP G (Cat. # 17-409) or EZ-ChIP (Cat. # 17-371) protocol for experimental details.
Western Blot Analysis:
Representative lot data.
HeLa nuclear extract was resolved by electrophoresis, transferred to PVDF and probed with Anti-E2F-1 (1.0 µg/mL).
Proteins were visualized using a goat anti-mouse secondary antibody conjugated to HRP and a chemiluminescence detection
system.
Arrow indicates E2F-1 (~55 kDa) (Please see figures).
Immunoprecipitation: 4 μg of a previous lot of this antibody immunoprecipitated E2F-1 from HeLa nuclear extract.
Electrophoretic Mobility Shift Assay (EMSA): A previous lot of the antibody has been shown to gel shift the E2F-1/DP-1/DNA complex.
This ChIPAb+ E2F-1 -ChIP Validated Antibody & Primer Set conveniently includes the antibody & the specific control PCR primers.
