Scientific Background: | Ubiquitin modification of cellular proteins has been shown to be involved with a wide range of biochemical processes including proteasomal degradation, signal transduction, DNA repair, endocytosis and autophagy. |
|
Technical Info/Product Notes: | Ubiquitin polyclonal antibody BML-UG9510 was conjugated to fluorescein by a proprietary method. The resulting fluorescein-labelled ubiquitin polyclonal antibody (BML-PW1235) facilitates ready detection of ubiquitinylated protein conjugates in cells by fluorescence microscopy. |
|
Detection of ubiquitinylated protein conjugates in HeLa cells by fluorescence microscopy using fluorescein labeled ubiquitin pAb (BML-PW1235), at 1:250 dilution. HeLa cells were treated with proteasome inhibitor MG-132 (5µM, BML-PI102) for 12 hours prior to analysis.
