Total cell lysate from HeLa cells (lane 1, 15 µg), Jurkat cells (lane 2, 15 µg) and mouse thymus (lane 3, 15 µg) were resolved by electrophoresis (4-20% Tris-Glycine gel), transferred to nitrocellulose, and probed with Direct-Blot™ HRP anti-Vimentin antibody (clone O91D3). Proteins were visualized using chemiluminescence detection. Direct-Blot™ HRP anti-β-actin antibody (clone 2F1-1) was used as a loading control.

Description

Vimentin are class-III intermediate filaments found in various non-epithelial cells, especially mesenchymal cells. Vimentin is a widely expressed and highly conserved 54 kD protein that is constitutively expressed in mesenchymal cells, endothelial cells lining blood vessels, renal tubular cells, macrophages, neutrophils, fibroblasts, and leukocytes1,2. Vimentin is used as a marker of mesenchymal cells to distinguish them from epithelial cells3. Increased vimentin expression is frequently used as an EMT marker in cancer4. Autoantibodies to vimentin are commonly found in patients with autoimmune diseases such as Lupus5 and rheumatoid arthritis6, and also found after transplantation7.

Product Details

Verified Reactivity
Human
Antibody Type
Monoclonal
Host Species
Mouse
Immunogen
Full length human vimentin produced in E. coli.
Formulation
This antibody is provided in 50% glycerol in aqueous buffered solutions with preservatives.
Preparation
The antibody was purified by affinity chromatography and conjugated with HRP under optimal conditions.
Concentration
Lot-specific (to obtain lot-specific concentration and expiration, please enter the lot number in our Certificate of Analysis online tool.)
Storage & Handling
Upon receipt, the antibody solution should be stored undiluted at -20°C, and protected from prolonged exposure to light.
Application

WB - Quality tested
Recommended Usage

Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by Western blotting. For Western blotting, the suggested dilution is 1:1000-1:2000. The optimal dilution should be determined by titration for each individual assay of interest.

25 µl and 100 µl of Direct-Blot™ HRP antibody can be used for approximately 5 and 20 Western blots, respectively, at the recommended concentration/dilution.

Application Notes

While this clone recognizes mouse Vimentin, we do not recommend its usage for western blot due to poor affinity of the antibody for the protein. Additional reported applications for the relevant formats include: spatial biology (IBEX)1,2.
