Charged multivesicular body protein 2b, GeneTex, GTX118181

Our team has carried out deep research in the published scientific literature to identify papers and reports using antibodies directed against human Charged multivesicular body protein 2B and followed up by extraction and evaluation of the available data to assess its performance according to pAbmAbs rating criteria.

YCharOS is here conducting a large head-to-head study comparing 8 commercial research antibodies against human Charged multivesicular body protein 2B, encoded by the CHMP2B gene.

The collection of antibodies was tested using U2OS WT and CHMP2B KO cells in the applications WB (WT and KO cell lysates/50 µg protein), IP (WT cell lysate) and IF (WT and KO cells) according to YCharOS standard protocols (see reference).

In WB (1:1000 Ab dilution) GTX118181 detected a faint band of appr. 24 kDa in WT lysate with no corresponding band in KO cell lysate. Bands of higher molecular weight were observed in both genotypes. Only a very weak band was detected following IP (2 µg Ab used). In IF (1:500 Ab dilution) similar staining was observed for both genotypes.

We highly encourage other scientists to share their observations.
