Whole cell extracts (15 µg total protein) from Jurkat, RPMI-8226, HEK293, and NIH/3T3 cells were resolved by 4-12% Bis-Tris gel electrophoresis, transferred to a PVDF membrane, and probed with 0.25 μg/mL (1:500 dilution) of purified anti-Maf (clone W18010A) overnight at 4°C. Proteins were visualized by chemiluminescence detection using HRP goat anti-rat IgG (Cat. No. 405405) at a 1:3000 dilution. Direct-Blot™ HRP anti-β-Actin (Cat. No. 643807) was used as a loading control at a 1:10000 dilution. Lane M: Molecular weight marker -
Jurkat cells (negative target) were fixed and permeabilized using the Cyto-Fast™ Fix/Perm Buffer Set (Cat. No. 426803), and intracellularly stained with 0.03 µg/test of purified anti-Maf (clone W18010A) (filled histogram) or of purified rat IgG2a, κ isotype control (Cat. No. 400502) (open histogram) followed by PE goat anti-rat IgG (Cat. No. 405406). -
RPMI-8226 cells (positive target) were fixed and permeabilized using the Cyto-Fast™ Fix/Perm Buffer Set (Cat. No. 426803), and intracellularly stained with 0.03 µg/test of purified anti-Maf (clone W18010A) (filled histogram) or purified rat IgG2a, κ isotype control (Cat. No. 400502) (open histogram) followed by PE goat anti-rat IgG (Cat. No. 405406). -
ICC staining of purified anti-Maf (clone W18010A) on RPMI-8226 cells. The cells were fixed with Fixation Buffer (Cat. No. 420801) and permeabilized with 0.5% Triton-X, and blocked with 5% FBS for 1 hour at room temperature. The cells were then stained with 5.0 µg/mL of the primary antibody, followed by incubation with 2.5 µg/mL of Alexa Fluor® 594 goat anti-mouse IgG (Cat. No. 405326) for 1 hour at room temperature. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (Cat. No. 422801), and the image was captured with a 60X objective. Scale bar = 50 μm

Transcription factor Maf (Maf) is a transcription factor encoded by the MAF gene. In a complex as a homo- or hetero-dimer, Maf acts as a transcriptional activator and repressor with diverse functions. For example, Maf plays numerous roles in the immune system by regulating IL-4 expression and modulating T-cell apoptosis, and is also a critical regulator of glucagon production in pancreatic alpha cells. Additionally, Maf plays a role in the development of multiple tissues, including the eye, bone, and blood vessels. Mutations in Maf are known to cause congenital and juvenile cataracts.

Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by western blotting. For western blotting, the suggested use of this reagent is 0.25 - 1.0 µg/mL. For immunocytochemistry, a concentration range of 1.0 - 5.0 μg/mL is recommended. For intracellular flow cytometric staining, the suggested use of this reagent is 0.03 - 0.05 µg per million cells in 100 µL volume. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.
- Application Notes
-
This clone has been tested and does not work for IHC-P.
For ICC application, paraformaldehyde plus Triton-X and paraformaldehyde plus methanol fix/perm methods are recommended. The use of methanol only as fix/perm is not suitable for this antibody.
For ICFC application, Cyto-Fast™ Fix/Perm Buffer Set (Cat. No. 426803) is recommended. - RRID
