A guide to selecting high-performing antibodies for PLC-gamma-2 for use in Western Blot, immunoprecipitation and immunofluorescence.

Phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C gamma 2 (PLC-gamma-2) is an enzyme that regulates the function of immune cells. PLC-gamma-2 has been implicated in neurodegenerative and autoimmune disorders, yet investigation of this protein has been limited by a lack of independently characterized antibodies. Here we have characterized eleven PLC-gamma-2 commercial antibodies for use in Western Blot, immunoprecipitation, and immunofluorescence using a standardized experimental protocol based on comparing read-outs in knockout cell lines and isogenic parental controls.

The amyloid-beta precursor protein is a transmembrane protein expressed in many tissues and highly concentrated in the brain. The protein is of significant interest due to its involvement in the generation of amyloidogenic β-amyloid peptides, prone to plaque formation that is characteristic of Alzheimer's Disease. The scientific community would benefit from the availability of high-quality anti-amyloid-beta precursor protein antibodies to enhance reproducible research on this target.

A guide to selecting high-performing antibodies for Secreted frizzled-related protein 1 (sFRP-1) for use in Western Blot and immunoprecipitation.

F1000Res

September 2024

Department of Neurology and Neurosurgery, Structural Genomics Consortium, The Montreal Neurological Institute, McGill University, Montreal, Quebec, H3A 2B4, Canada.

Secreted frizzled-related protein 1 (sFRP-1) is a secreted protein, belonging to the secreted glycoprotein SFRP family. As a modulator of the Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway, sFRP-1 has implications in human cancers and neurological diseases. If the community had access to well-characterized anti-sFRP-1 antibodies, the reproducibility of sFRP-1 research would be enhanced.
