The following secondary antibodies were used for visualization: Alexa Fluor 488-conjugated goat anti-mouse immunoglobulin (Ig)G (ab150113; Abcam, Cambridge, MA; 1:1000), FITC-conjugated anti-mouse IgM (sc-2082, Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA, 1:1000), Texas Red-conjugated goat anti-rabbit (TI-1000; Vector Laboratories, Funakoshi Co., Tokyo, Japan), DyLight488-conjugated horse anti-goat IgG (DI-3088; Vector Laboratories; 1:500), Alexa Fluor 488-conjugated donkey anti-sheep IgG (A-11015; Thermo Fisher Scientific, Kanagawa, Japan; 1:1000), and streptavidin-conjugated Alexa Fluor 594 (S11227, Thermo Fisher Scientific; 1:1000).

Brevican Neo-Epitope Detection in CSF

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Following primary antibodies were used: rabbit anti-brevican “neo” (Rb399) (custom-made; rat neo-epitope QEAVESE; see Valenzuela et al., 2014 (link); 1:500), polyclonal sheep anti-human/rat brevican (AF4009, R&D Systems, Minneapolis, United States, 1:1000), polyclonal sheep anti-rat/mouse neurocan (AF5800, R&D Systems, Minneapolis, United States, 1:1000), and the antibodies from the ELISA kits (see above).
To prove if the neo-antibody, which was originally produced against the neo-epitope of the rat N-terminal brevican fragment, is also detecting the human brevican fragment neo-epitope EATESE we performed a competition assay with pre-incubation of the primary antibody with a 100-fold molar excess of the peptide Biotin-Ahx-CGQEAVESE containing the immunogen for 1 h at RT. As shown in Supplementary Figure 1, the 60 kDa band detected by this antibody in human CSF samples is clearly diminished in the peptide competition condition, demonstrating its specificity.
As secondary antibodies we used peroxidase-conjugated AffiniPure donkey anti-rabbit IgG (H + L) and peroxidase-conjugated AffiniPure donkey anti-sheep IgG (H + L) (Jackson ImmunoResearch, Cambridgeshire, United Kingdom, 1:2000).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
