| Questionnaire: | |
| How do Aviva’s reagents play a role in your experimental goals? | I have been conducting experiments on fosl2 gene in zebrafish. I have been using Aviva antibody for western blots. |
| How would you rate this antibody on a scale from 1-5 (5=best) and why? | This antibody recognises recombinant Fosl2 protein and in vitro synthesised Fosl2 protein. It can also recognise the endogenous Fosl2 from protein slurry. 4/5 |
| Would you use this antibody in future experiments? | I would used this antibody for WB against Fosl2 |
| Have you used another antibody which has worked in your application? | Yes I have also generated a zebrafish specific Fosl2 antibody. |
| Do you believe the information about the reagent on Aviva’s website is correct? | Yes |
| If the antibody works, do you plan to use it in future experiments or to publish your data? Why or why not? | Yes- this antibody reliably recognises Fosl2 in western blots |
| How did you store the antibody after re-suspension? | Yes- this antibody reliably recognises Fosl2 in western blots |
| Sample Description (please include 1) species type, and 2) cell/tissue type, and 3) how much protein loaded for each lane of your gel): | Zebrafish, whole embryo. |
| How many different experimental trials were conducted using the antibody sample? | 3-4 |
| How was this sample prepared? | I have used between 5-10ul of recombinant zebrafish Fosl2 protein, or 20ul of whole embryo slurry. |
| Primary antibody dilution and incubation time: | 1:500, incubated at room temperature for 1 hour. |
| Secondary antibody used and dilution and incubation time: | Goat anti rabbit polyclonal HRP conjugated. |

| Please include your detailed WB Procedure/Protocol here: | Dechorionating & deyolking1. Remove embryos from their chorions in batches of ~100 by placing in 1 mg/ml of pronaseand swirling occasionally (5-10 minutes for 24 hpf embryos, 10-20 minutes for 3 day embryos). Finish dechorionation by gentle trituration using a Pasteur pipette. The chorions float and can be decanted. Rinse three times in cold Ringer's solution. 2.Transfer the embryos to cold Ringer's with EDTA and PMSF. Remove yolks by triturating with a glass pipette that has been drawn out to have a tip diameter approximately the size of the yolk. 3.Transfer the dechorionated, deyolked embryos to fresh, cold Ringer's solution and rinse twice. 4.Embryos can be frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at 70 d C at this point by transferring to a microcentifuge tube and removing as much liquid as possible. Solutions: Pronase: 5 mg/ml pronasediluted to 1 mg/ml in Embryo Medium PMSF: Stock - 100 mM phenylmethylsulfonylfluoride in Isopropanol. Immediately before use, add 30 ul of stock/10 ml Ringer's (final conc. 0.3 mM PMSF). EDTA: Stock - 10 mM EDTA, pH 7.0. Add 1 ml of stock/10 ml Ringer's (final conc. 1mM EDTA) Preparation of gel sample 1. Remove from freezer and thaw the frozen, dechorionated, deyolked fish. 2. Microfuge for 1-2 minutes to pellet. 3. Remove excess liquid. 4. Add 150-200 ul SDS sample buffer (for example, ~50-100 3 day embryos or 100-150 24 hpf embryos; this will yield enough for a 1.5 cm curtain or four 0.4 cm lanes of about 25-30 ul each). 5. Homogenize with microfuge pestle until uniform in consistency. 6. Repeat step 5 until sample is no longer stringy. 7. Boil 5 minutes in a water bath. 8. Microfuge, 1-2 minutes. 9. Transfer supernatant to a new microfuge tube. Discard pellet or add more sample buffer and homogenize again if significant pellet remains. |
