Validation Data Gallery

• 

  WB analysis using 68181-1-Ig (same clone as 68181-1-PBS)

  Various lysates were subjected to SDS PAGE followed by western blot with 68181-1-Ig (COMT antibody) at dilution of 1:10000 and incubated at room temperature for 1.5 hours. The membrane was stripped and reblotted with HRP-conjugated GAPDH Monoclonal antibody (HRP-60004) as loading control. This data was developed using the same antibody clone with 68181-1-PBS in a different storage buffer formulation.

• 

  IF Staining of mouse cerebellum using 68181-1-Ig (same clone as 68181-1-PBS)

  Immunofluorescent analysis of (4% PFA) fixed mouse cerebellum tissue using COMT antibody (68181-1-Ig, Clone: 1A1A4 ) at dilution of 1:400 and CoraLite®488-Conjugated AffiniPure Goat Anti-Mouse IgG(H+L). This data was developed using the same antibody clone with 68181-1-PBS in a different storage buffer formulation.

• 

  FC experiment of HepG2 using 68181-1-Ig (same clone as 68181-1-PBS)

  1X10^6 HepG2 cells were intracellularly stained with 0.4 ug Anti-Human COMT (68181-1-Ig, Clone:1A1A4) and CoraLite®488-Conjugated AffiniPure Goat Anti-Mouse IgG(H+L) at dilution 1:1000 (red), or 0.4 ug Control Antibody. Cells were fixed with 4% PFA and permeabilized with Flow Cytometry Perm Buffer (PF00011-C). This data was developed using the same antibody clone with 68181-1-PBS in a different storage buffer formulation.

Background Information

Catechol O-methyltransferase (COMT) is an important enzyme that catalyzes O-methylation and inactivation of metabolically active catechol-containing bioactive molecules and drugs. The mammalian COMT enzyme exists in soluble form (24-26 kDa) and membrane-bound form (28-30 kDa), which are encoded by a single gene utilizing different promoters.
