Description

General description

Families of adhesion molecules which share common carbohydrate domains do exist, despite the structural and functional diversity of these glycoproteins. These include the Ca2+-independent neural adhesion molecules: N-CAM, myelin associated glycoprotein (MAG) and L1. L1 is involved in neuron-neuron adhesion, neurite fasciculation, outgrowth of neurites, cerebellar granule cell migration, neurite outgrowth on Schwann cells and interactions among epithelial cells of intestinal crypts

Specificity

Monoclonal antibody against neural cell adhesion molecule L1 from rat-rat hybrid cells.

Immunogen

Rats were immunized with a glycoprotein fraction from cerebellum of 8-10 day old C57BL/6J mice.

Application

This Anti-Neural Cell Adhesion Molecule L1 Antibody, clone 324 is validated for use in IC, IH, WB for the detection of Neural Cell Adhesion Molecule L1.

Western blotting:
20 μg/mL was used on a previous lot.

Immunocytochemistry:
5-10 μg/mL was used on a previous lot. Cells must be fixed with methanol for 10 minutes at -20°C in the middle log phase.

Immunohistochemistry: Clone 324 is sensitive to fixation. Fresh frozen, acetone or -20C methanol fixed tissues are recommended. Traditional 4% PFA typically does not work well. Other fixatives have not been tested.

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user.

Target description

120-140 kDa

Physical form

Format: Purified

Rat monoclonal in buffer containing 0.02 M Phosphate buffer, 0.25 M NaCl, pH 7.6 with 0.1% sodium azide.

Other Notes

Concentration: Please refer to the Certificate of Analysis for the lot-specific concentration.
