Applications

Application Notes
Applications Validated by Active Motif:
WB: 1 - 2 µg/ml dilution
For optimal results, primary antibody incubations should be performed at room temperature. The addition of 0.1% Tween 20 to all blocking solutions may also reduce background. Individual optimization may be required.
Published Applications
The following applications have been published using this antibody. Unless noted above, Active Motif may not have validated the antibody for use in these applications:

Immunogen
This IκBα antibody was raised against a recombinant protein corresponding to amino acid residues 32-291 of human IκBα.
Buffer
PBS containing 0.02% sodium azide. Sodium azide is highly toxic.
IκBα mAb tested by Western blot.
The anti-IκBα detects both phosphorylated and non-phosphorylated forms of IκBα by Western blot. Jurkat cells (~1 x 107) were treated for indicated time periods with 10 nm/ml PMA, 1 µM ionomycin and anti-CD28 (1:10,000 dilution). 10 µl of cytoplasmic (C) and nuclear extract (N) were resolved on a 8.75% SDS-PAGE and transferred to Immobilon membrane.

Background
IκBα – NFκB (NFκB p50 & NFκB p65) signaling is controlled to a large extent by the sequestration of the NFκB complex in the cytoplasm by its association with one of the IκB family of proteins. IκBα is phosphorylated at Ser32 and Ser36 (IκBα phospho Ser32,36) by the IκB Kinase (IKK) complex, resulting in the degradation of IκB and the nuclear translocation of NFκB.
Positive Control
Active Motif's Jurkat nuclear extract (TPA + CI stimulated) (Catalog No. 36013) can be used as a positive control for IκBα antibody.
Storage
