RAB1A Antibody / Ras-related protein Rab-1A (FY13241)

Flow Cytometry analysis of cells using anti-RAB1A antibody. Overlay histogram showing cells stained with (Blue line). To facilitate intracellular staining, cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with permeabilization buffer. The cells were blocked with 10% normal goat serum. And then incubated with rabbit anti-RAB1A 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 (Red line) was also used as a control.

Western blot analysis of RAB1A using anti-RAB1A antibody. Lane 1: human MCF-7 whole cell lysates, Lane 2: human Caco-2 whole cell lysates, Lane 3: human HepG2 whole cell 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-RAB1A 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. RAB1A is detected at ~22-23 kDa across lines; in MCF7 the band migrates slightly higher, consistent with cell-type–dependent prenylation/phosphorylation and membrane association that modestly slow SDS-PAGE mobility.
