| Catalogue Number | 151570 | 
| Applications | IP WB | 
| Antigen/Gene or Protein Targets | POT1 | 
| Reactivity | Human and Mouse | 
| Relevance | POT1 (protection of telomeres 1) is part of the telomerase ribonucleotide (RNP) complex, which stabilises chromosomes by controlling telomere elongation. POT1 is a component of the double-stranded telomeric DNA-binding TRF1 complex which cis-inhibits telomerase. POT1 localization on telomeres diminishes in the absence of single-stranded DNA. | 
| Host | Rabbit | 
| Immunogen | Full-length human POT1 protein | 
| Concentration | 1.5 mg/ml | 
| Formulation | PBS, 0.1% NaN3 | 
| Molecular Weight (kDa) | 70 | 
| Notes | Available as immunogen affinity purified. Recommended immunostaining protocol: Samples (50-100 μg) are separated by SDS-PAGE on 10% Bis-Tris gels for 1 to 1.5 hours at 180V and then transferred onto nitrocellulose membrane at 30V for 100 minutes. Blocking is performed for a minimum of 30 minutes in 5% milk in PBS-Tween and the MTA40 antibody is left for overnight incubation. The membrane is then washed in PBS-Tween and the secondary antibody (Third party manufacturer) is added for a minimum of one hour. After washing in PBS-Tween, the immunostaining is visualised with ECL reaction. |
