( cs of Ambion's Primary Antib...)Control Your siRNA Research

Primary Antibodies Matched to Silencer Gene Specific Controls
Ambion provides mouse monoclonal antibodies for the detection of GAPDH, c-myc, and -actin by immunofluorescence. Each of these primary antibodies has been used in immunofluorescence experiments at Ambion to detect the reduction in protein levels induced by siRNA. An example of such an experiment is shown in Figure 2. (Antibodies are supplied in solution in a 100 g unit size and are validated for use in immunofluorescence experiments. Note that the concentration and volume will vary by antibody).

Figure 2. Following the Silencing of -actin. An siRNA targeting -actin was labeled with Cy3 using the Silencer siRNA Labeling Kit. The labeled siRNA was transfected into HeLa cells and cells were analyzed 96 hours later. Green: -actin protein detected with anti--actin (Ambion) and a fluorescein labeled secondary antibody. Red: Cy3 labeled siRNA. Blue: DAPI stained nuclei. (Cy3 is a trademark of Amersham Biosciences.)
