Gelsolin, GeneTex, GTX633681

Our team has carried out deep research in the published scientific literature to identify papers and reports using antibodies directed against human Gelsolin 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 16 commercial research antibodies against human Gelsolin encoded by GSN.

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

WB was performed using lysates (50 µg protein) from WT and KO cells. WB with GTX633681 (antibody dilution 1:1000) produced multiple bands (>15) in both genotypes. A band at appr. 80 kDa was specific for WT lysate. This band was more faint than other bands detected. No band was detected following IP (1 µg Ab used). In IF (1:2000 Ab dilution), comparable staining intensities were observed in both KO and WT cells.

We highly encourage other scientists to share their observations.
