Reactivity Notes

Canine reactivity reported in scientific literature (PMID: 24505439). Please note that this antibody is reactive to Mouse and derived from the same host, Mouse. Additional Mouse on Mouse blocking steps may be required for IHC and ICC experiments. Please contact Technical Support for more information.

Localization

Cytoplasmic

Specificity

Detects spectrin from erythrocytes, brain and muscle cells. This has been shown to specifically detect the two known alternatively spliced forms of spectrin, beta-1 epsilon-1, present in erythrocytes, and beta-1 epsilon-2, present in nerve and striated muscle cells. It does not cross-react with alpha-2 spectrin or either of the fodrin subunits.

Application Notes
WB: Detects an approx. 246 kDa protein representing beta-1 spectrin in rat skeletal muscle homogenate. IF: Staining of beta-1 spectrin in rat skeletal muscle fibers results in intense staining of the sarcolemma. Antigen integrity can be compromised if aldehyde fixatives are left in contact with the protein for extended periods of time. If paraformaldehyde is used as a fixative, exposure should be limited to 5 minutes or less of no more than a 2% solution. IHC usage was reported in scientitic literature (PMID: 9142435). IHC-Fr usage was reported in scientific literature (PMID: 24505439).

Background: Spectrin beta 1

Spectrin (Sp), the most abundant of the erythrocyte membrane skeleton proteins, helps these cells maintain their characteristic biconcave shape while remaining flexible and elastic. Erythrocyte Sp is a heterodimer composed of a 280 kDa alpha subunit and a 246 kDa beta subunit which associate in a side-to-side, antiparallel configuration to form a 100 nm rod-like structure. Sp in other tissues may be composed of distinct but homologous alpha and beta subunits, sometimes referred to as fodrin. A newly introduced nomenclature designates the Sp subunits of the erythrocyte as alpha-1 and beta-1, and the fodrin subunits as alpha-2 and beta-2. Alternatively spliced forms of each are designated as epsilon-1, epsilon-2, etc. (e.g. beta-1 epsilon-1).
