Since the first publication describing Western blotting, this immunodetection technique has been widely used to identify specific proteins in complex mixtures extracted from cells or tissues.
Polyclonal, monoclonal, and recombinant antibodies are all suitable for western blotting. Polyclonal antibodies are a collection of many monoclonal antibodies that can vary between immunizations and batches. Polyclonal antibodies recognize multiple epitopes of an antigen and are therefore ...
Western blotting is a technique that uses specific antibodies to separate proteins and is widely used to analyze the expression of specific proteins in cell or tissue extracts. This protocol details the steps for performing western blotting of cell culture and tissue samples using both ...
Blue native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (BN-PAGE) is an electrophoretic technique used to separate and analyze large protein complexes. It preserves protein complexes in their native state under non-denaturing conditions by treating samples with mild detergents and negatively charged dyes ...
Immunoprecipitation of natural proteins is a classic method for studying natural protein interactions, which relies on the specific binding between antibodies and proteins (antigens). This technique can be used to qualitatively detect proteins, determine the physiological role of proteins in ...
High molecular weight western blotting is a modification of the standard western blotting technique specifically designed for the detection and analysis of large molecular weight proteins.
