Immunogen
NF-L / NEFL antibody was raised against to raise this antibody bovine intermediate filaments were prepared from spinal cords by the method of Delacourte et al. and the cytoskeletal material was dissolved in 6M urea. Individual neurofilament subunits were purified by ion exchange chromatography on DEAE cellulose followed by preparative gel electrophoresis. To ensure greater specificity for NF-L, animals were boosted with recombinant mouse NF-L purified from bacteria.
Applications Tested/Suitable for anti-NF-L antibody
Immunohistochemistry (IHC - Paraffin), Immunocytochemistry (ICC), Immunofluorescence (IF), Western Blot (WB)
Application Notes for anti-NF-L antibody
ICC (1:5000), IF (1:5000), IHC-P (1:500), WB (1:10000)
Usage: The IgY solution can be used at dilutions of at least 1:5000 in immunofluorescence experiments. In western blotting using chemiluminescence it can be used at dilutions of 1:10000 or lower.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC) of anti-NF-L antibody

Anti-NF-L / NEFL antibody IHC staining of human brain, cortex. Immunohistochemistry of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue after heat-induced antigen retrieval. Antibody dilution 1:500.

Immunocytochemistry (ICC) of anti-NF-L antibody

View of mixed neuron/glial cultures stained with NF-L / NEFL antibody (red) and rabbit antibody to phosphorylated NF-H (green). The NF-L protein is assembled into neurofilaments which are found throughout the axons, dendrites and perikarya of these cells. In contrast the phosphorylated NF-H has a much more restricted expression pattern, being found only in developed axonal neurofilaments. Since both proteins are found in neurofilaments, the red and green patterns overlap, so that neurofilaments containing NF-L and phosphorylated NF-H appear yellowish. In contrast neurofilaments containing only NF-L appear red.

Other Notes

Small volumes of anti-NF-L antibody vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.

NCBI Summary for NF-L

Neurofilaments are type IV intermediate filament heteropolymers composed of light, medium, and heavy chains. Neurofilaments comprise the axoskeleton and they functionally maintain the neuronal caliber. They may also play a role in intracellular transport to axons and dendrites. This gene encodes the light chain neurofilament protein. Mutations in this gene cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease types 1F (CMT1F) and 2E (CMT2E), disorders of the peripheral nervous system that are characterized by distinct neuropathies. A pseudogene has been identified on chromosome Y. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]
