Description

Puromycin is an aminonucleoside antibiotic, derived from the Streptomyces alboniger bacterium, which functions as a Tyr-tRNA mimetic that enters the ribosome A site and incorporates into the nascent chain C terminus. Antibodies against Puromycin can detect puromycylated nascent chains released from ribosomes and thereby quantify protein translation. This monoclonal antibody to puromycin can be used in flow cytometry, immunofluorescence or immunoblotting to measure rates of global protein synthesis (mRNA translation) in cells incubated with Puromycin.

Application

ICFC - Quality tested
Recommended Usage

Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by intracellular immunofluorescent staining with flow cytometric analysis. For flow cytometric staining, the suggested use of this reagent is 5 µL per million cells in 100 µL staining volume or 5 µL per 100 µL of whole blood. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.

* Alexa Fluor® 488 has a maximum emission of 519 nm when it is excited at 488 nm.

Application Notes

It is recommended that the timing and concentration of Puromycin treatment be optimized for each cell type. 1 - 10 µg/mL of Puromycin for 30 minutes to 2 hours are suggested ranges for activated PBMCs or cell lines in growth phase.

For flow cytometry, the amount of anti-puromycin antibody may also have to be optimized. Cells with high levels of protein translation require lower concentrations of antibody.
