AS12 2609 Anti-AP2 | Floral homeotic protein APETALA 2

1 µg of total protein from Oryza sativa lines grown under drought stress conditions and over expressing protein DREB (AP2 domain, 285 aa, 31.35 kDa) (lines 1-5) and purified 100 ng of DREB (line 6), were separated on 12.5 % SDS-PAGE and blotted 4h to Nitrocellulose membrane. Blots were blocked with blocking agent 5% BSA or 1X TBS, 0.1% Tween-20 with 5% w/v non-fat dry milk for 1h at room temperature (RT) with agitation. Blot was incubated in the primary antibody at a dilution of 1: 6 000 for 1h at RT or overnight at 4°C with agitation. The antibody solution was decanted and the blot was rinsed briefly twice, then washed once for 15 min and 3 x 5 min in 1XTBST at RT with agitation. Blot was incubated in secondary antibody (anti-rabbit IgG horse radish peroxidase conjugated, from Agrisera, AS09 602) diluted to 1:8000 in for 1h at RT or max. 2h with agitation. The blot was washed as above and developed for 5 min with ECL according to the manufacturer's instructions. Exposure time was preferred between 20 to 30 seconds or max. 1 min.

This antibody was used in western blots on Lepidium appelianum and Lepidium campestre AP2 Protein expressed in E. coli cells. Applied dilution was 1: 6000.

Contains 0.02 % sodium azide.

AP2 (floral homeotic protein APETALA 2) is a transcription factor involved in the specification of floral organ identity, establishment of floral meristem identity and controlling seed mass.
