Western blot - Anti-TGF beta 1 antibody [EPR21143] (ab215715)
Lanes 1 - 4: Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab215715 observed at 48 kDa. Red - loading control ab7291 (Mouse anti-Alpha Tubulin [DM1A]) observed at 55 kDa.
ab215715 was shown to react with TGF beta 1 in wild-type A549 cells in Western blot with loss of signal observed in TGFB1 knockout cell line ab269509 (TGFB1 knockout cell lysate ab269671). Wild-type A549 and TGFB1 knockout cell lysates were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Membranes were blocked in 3 % milk in TBS-T (0.1 % Tween®) before incubation with ab215715 and ab7291 (Mouse anti-Alpha Tubulin [DM1A]) overnight at 4 °C at a 1 in 1000 dilution and a 1 in 20000 dilution respectively. Blots were incubated with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed (ab216776) secondary antibodies at 1 in 20000 dilution for 1 h at room temperature before imaging.
