Purified Mouse Anti- Human Topo IIβ
Purified Mouse Anti- Human Topo IIβ
Western blot analysis of Topo IIβ on a Jurkat lysate. Lane 1: 1:1000, lane 2: 1:2000, lane 3: 1:4000 dilution of the Topo IIβ antibody.
Purified Mouse Anti- Human Topo IIβ
Immunofluorescent staining of A549 cells.  Cells were seeded in a 96 well imaging plate (Cat. No. 353219) at ~ 10 000 cells per well.  After overnight incubation, cells were stained using the methanol fix/perm protocol (see Recommended Assay Procedure) and the anti-Topisomerase IIβ  antibody.  The second step reagent was FITC goat anti mouse Ig (Cat. No. 554001).  The image was taken on a Pathway 850 imager using a 20x objective.  This antibody also stained HeLa and U2OS cells and can be used with either fix/perm protocol (see Recommended Assay Procedure).

Recommended Assay Procedures

Methanol Procedure for a 96 well plate:

Remove media from wells. Add 100 µl/well fresh 3.7% Formaldehyde in PBS. Incubate for 10 minutes at room temperature (RT). Flick out and add 100 µl/well 90% methanol. Incubate for 5 minutes at RT. Flick out and wash twice with PBS. Flick out PBS and add 100 µl/well blocking buffer (3% FBS in PBS). Incubate for 30 minutes at RT. Flick out and add diluted antibody (diluted in blocking buffer). Incubate for 1 hour at RT. Wash three times with PBS. Flick out PBS and add second step reagent. Incubate for 1 hour at RT. Wash three times with PBS. Image sample.

Triton-X 100 Procedure for a 96 well plate:

Remove media from wells. Add 100 µl/well fresh 3.7% Formaldehyde in PBS. Incubate for 10 minutes at room temperature (RT). Flick out and add 100 µl/well 0.1% Triton-X 100. Incubate for 5 minutes at RT. Flick out and wash twice with PBS. Flick out PBS and add 100 µl/well blocking buffer (3% FBS in PBS). Incubate for 30 minutes at RT. Flick out and add diluted antibody (diluted in blocking buffer). Incubate for 1 hour at RT. Flick out and wash three times with PBS. Flick out and add second step reagent. Incubate for 1 hour at RT. Flick out and wash three times with PBS. Image sample.

40/Topo IIβ

Eukaryotic DNA topoisomerase II, a ubiquitous ATP-dependent type II topoisomerase, is an essential nuclear enzyme in DNA replication and transcription, chromatin segregation, and cell cycle progression. Topoisomerases transiently break a pair of complementary strands in double-stranded DNA to form a gate for the passage of duplex DNA. Two isoforms of DNA topoisomerase II have been identified: topo IIα and topo IIß. These exhibit a high degree of homology, except for some divergence in the C-terminal region. Both contain multiple bipartite nuclear localization sequences (NLS) that mediate their subnuclear localization. Topo IIα levels rise during late S phase and peak in G2-M, whereas topo IIß levels remain constant throughout the cell cycle. In addition, topo IIα is expressed in proliferating cells, while topo IIß is expressed in a wide range of tissues. Although the exact role of these two isoforms during cell proliferation is not known, the differences in cellular expression implicate different physiological roles. Both isoforms may also be important targets for anticancer agents that exert cytotoxicity in proliferating cells via stabilization of a topo II-DNA complex.

This antibody is routinely tested by Western blot analysis and immunofluorescent imaging. Other applications were tested at BD Biosciences Pharmingen during antibody development only.

Purified
Tissue culture supernatant is purified by either protein A/G or affinity purification methods. Both methods yield antibody in solution that is free of most other soluble proteins, lipids, etc. This format provides pure antibody that is suitable for a number of downstream applications including: secondary labeling for flow cytometry or microscopy, ELISA, Western blot, etc.
