Anti vdac1 antibody

Manufactured by Abcam
Sourced in United States, United Kingdom

The Anti-VDAC1 antibody is a laboratory reagent used for the detection and study of the VDAC1 protein. VDAC1, also known as the voltage-dependent anion channel 1, is a protein involved in the regulation of mitochondrial function. This antibody can be used in various experimental techniques, such as Western blotting, immunohistochemistry, and immunoprecipitation, to identify and quantify the expression of VDAC1 in biological samples.

Flash frozen hearts were homogenized at 4 °C in radio-immunoprecipitation assay (RIPA) buffer (in mmol·L−1: Tris 10, NaCl 140, EDTA 5, phenylmethanesulfonylfluoride PMSF 1 with Triton X-100 1%, deoxycholate 1%, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) 0.1%, and in μg/mL: aprotinin 10, leupeptin 10, pepstatin 10, at pH 7.4) using a glass dounce tissue grinder. A mitochondria isolation kit for tissue (Abcam, Paris, France) was used to prepare enriched mitochondrial fractions, which were stored at −80 °C until use. Proteins (25 μg) were resolved by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE), transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane and incubated with the following antibodies: rabbit polyclonal anti VDAC-1 antibody (1/1000; Abcam, Paris, France), rabbit polyclonal anti-phospho-Ser-58 CcOX IV-1 antibodies (1/500; Phospho Solutions, Aurora, CO, USA). Blots were developed with enhanced chemiluminescence (ECL) Plus reagent with goat anti-rabbit IgG antibody conjugated to horseradish peroxidase for chemiluminescent detection (Cell Signaling Technology, Beverly, MA, USA).

Identifying VDAC1 Oligomeric Forms

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To decipher the oligomeric forms of VDAC1, chemical crosslinking was performed in liver tissues and cells using the membrane permeable cross-linker EGS [ethylene glycol bis (succinimidyl succinate), Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., Waltham, MA, USA] to stabilize oligomers. Briefly, cells were harvested by scraping and rinsed twice with PBS. Cells or protein lysates of liver tissue were incubated with 0.5 mM EGS in PBS, pH 7.4, at 30 °C for 20 minutes. To remove possible excess cross-linkers, 1.5 M Tris HCl (pH 7.8) was supplied to a final concentration of 20 mM, and the mixture was incubated for 5 minutes at room temperature prior to centrifugation at 10,000 × g for 5 minutes. The pellets were lysed in NP-40 lysis buffer by sonication on ice. The protein content was measured using the Pierce BCA Protein Assay (#P0011, Beyotime, Shanghai, China). The samples (50 µg) were then subjected to SDS‒PAGE and immunoblotting using an anti-VDAC1 antibody (#154856, Abcam, Cambridge, UK)14 (link),31 (link).

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.
