This antibody was evaluated in a study of commercially available antibodies directed against SH2 domain-containing adapter protein B (Shb). Nine antibodies were included in the study and their performance was tested in Western blotting and Immunoprecipitation.
Tests were performed using cell lysate obtained from the cell line HEK 293T, which endogenously expresses Shb, and HEK 293T cells transiently transfected with CMV promoter driven overexpression of Shb. As a negative control, Shb was knocked-down in HEK 293T-derived cell line CE12 using Shb-specific siRNA.
This antibody proved to be the most specific one of the nine antibodies included in the test. It was clearly able to detect the endogenous Shb protein. The strongest signal corresponded to Shb and only one or two non-specific weaker bands were detected.
The antibody was unable to immuneprecipitate the target.
Immunogen: C-terminal amino acids (380 509) of human Shb
Lot number: K0207
Concentration: 2 µg/ml
Results are summarized in inserted table.
