DEAD-box helicase 1, GeneTex, GTX107931

Our team has carried out deep research in the published scientific literature to identify papers and reports using antibodies directed against human DEAD-box helicase 1 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 11 commercial research antibodies against human DEAD-box helicase 1 encoded by DDX1.

The collection of antibodies was tested using U2OS WT and DDX1 KO cells in the applications WB (WT and KO cell lysates/30 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) GTX107931 detected a very faint band of appr. 80 kDa in WT cell lysate with no corresponding band in KO cell lysate. No band was detected following IP (2 µg Ab used). In IF (1:150 Ab dilution), comparable staining intensities were observed in both KO and WT cells.

We highly encourage other scientists to share their observations.
