MAGI2 Antibody / Membrane-associated guanylate kinase inverted 2 (FY12579)

Flow Cytometry analysis of SH-SY5Y cells using anti-MAGI2 antibody. Overlay histogram showing SH-SY5Y cells stained with (Blue line). The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and blocked with 10% normal goat serum. And then incubated with rabbit anti-MAGI2 antibody (1 ug/million cells) for 30 min at 20oC. DyLight 488 conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (5-10 ug/million cells) was used as secondary antibody for 30 minutes at 20oC. Isotype control antibody (Green line) was rabbit IgG (1 ug/million cells) used under the same conditions. Unlabelled sample without incubation with primary antibody and secondary antibody (Red line) was used as a blank control.

Western blot analysis of MAGI2 using anti-MAGI2 antibody. Lane 1: rat brain tissue lysates, Lane 2: mouse brain tissue lysates. After electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane at 150 mA for 50-90 minutes. Blocked the membrane with 5% non-fat milk/TBS for 1.5 hour at RT. The membrane was incubated with rabbit anti-MAGI2 antibody at 0.5 ug/ml overnight at 4oC, then washed with TBS-0.1%Tween 3 times with 5 minutes each and probed with a goat anti-rabbit IgG-HRP secondary antibody at a dilution of 1:5000 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal was developed using enhanced chemiluminescent. A major band is detected at ~149 kDa, slightly lower than the predicted 159 kDa and consistent with published reports for full-length MAGI2 (145-155 kDa). Additional weaker bands above and below likely represent phosphorylated or truncated isoforms frequently observed in neural tissue.
