Western Blot (WB) of anti-GGCX antibody

Figure 1. Western blot analysis of GGCX using anti-GGCX antibody (MBS1755116).

Electrophoresis was performed on a 5-20% SDS-PAGE gel at 70V (Stacking gel)/90V (Resolving gel) for 2-3 hours. The sample well of each lane was loaded with 30 ug of sample under reducing conditions.

Lane 1: human MCF-7 whole cell lysates,
Lane 2: human HEK293 whole cell lysates,
Lane 3: human HepG2 whole cell lysates,
Lane 4: human PC-3 whole cell lysates,
Lane 5: mouse HEPA1-6 whole cell lysates.

After electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane at 150 mA for 50-90 minutes. Blocked the membrane with 5% non-fat milk/TBS for 1.5 hour at RT. The membrane was incubated with rabbit anti-GGCX antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (#MBS1755116) at 0.25 ug/mL overnight at 4 degree C, then washed with TBS-0.1%Tween 3 times with 5 minutes each and probed with a goat anti-rabbit IgG-HRP secondary antibody at a dilution of 1:5000 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal is developed using an Enhanced Chemiluminescent detection (ECL) kit with Tanon 5200 system. A specific band was detected for GGCX at approximately 88 kDa. The expected band size for GGCX is at 88 kDa.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC) of anti-GGCX antibody

Figure 2. IHC analysis of GGCX using anti-GGCX antibody (MBS1755116).

GGCX was detected in a paraffin-embedded section of human hepatic cancer tissue. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed in EDTA buffer (pH 8.0, epitope retrieval solution). The tissue section was blocked with 10% goat serum. The tissue section was then incubated with 2 ug/ml rabbit anti-GGCX Antibody (MBS1755116) overnight at 4 degree C. Biotinylated goat anti-rabbit IgG was used as secondary antibody and incubated for 30 minutes at 37 degree C. The tissue section was developed using Strepavidin-Biotin-Complex (SABC) with DAB as the chromogen.

Immunofluorescence (IF) of anti-GGCX antibody

Figure 3. IF analysis of GGCX using anti-GGCX antibody (MBS1755116).

GGCX was detected in an immunocytochemical section of CACO-2 cells. Enzyme antigen retrieval was performed using IHC enzyme antigen retrieval reagent (AR0022) for 15 mins. The cells were blocked with 10% goat serum. And then incubated with 5 ug/mL rabbit anti-GGCX Antibody (MBS1755116) overnight at 4 degree C. DyLight488 Conjugated Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG (MBS177405) was used as secondary antibody at 1:100 dilution and incubated for 30 minutes at 37 degree C. The section was counterstained with DAPI. Visualize using a fluorescence microscope and filter sets appropriate for the label used.

Overlay histogram showing U251 cells stained with MBS1755116 (Blue line). The cells were blocked with 10% normal goat serum. And then incubated with rabbit anti-GGCX Antibody (MBS1755116, 1 ug/1x10^6 cells) for 30 min at 20 degree C. DyLight488 conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (MBS177405, 5-10 ug/1x10^6 cells) was used as secondary antibody for 30 minutes at 20 degree C. Isotype control antibody (Green line) was rabbit IgG (1 ug/1x10^6) used under the same conditions. Unlabelled sample (Red line) was also used as a control.

Other Notes

Small volumes of anti-GGCX 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 GGCX

This gene encodes an enzyme which catalyzes the posttranslational modification of vitamin K-dependent protein. Many of these vitamin K-dependent proteins are involved in coagulation so the function of the encoded enzyme is essential for hemostasis. Mutations in this gene are associated with vitamin K-dependent coagulation defect and PXE-like disorder with multiple coagulation factor deficiency. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Nov 2008]

UniProt Comments for GGCX

GGCX: Mediates the vitamin K-dependent carboxylation of glutamate residues to calcium-binding gamma-carboxyglutamate (Gla) residues with the concomitant conversion of the reduced hydroquinone form of vitamin K to vitamin K epoxide. Defects in GGCX are a cause of combined deficiency of vitamin K-dependent clotting factors type 1 (VKCFD1); also known as multiple coagulation factor deficiency III (MCFD3). VKCFD leads to a bleeding tendency that is usually reversed by oral administration of vitamin K. Defects in GGCX are the cause of pseudoxanthoma elasticum-like disorder with multiple coagulation factor deficiency (PXEL-MCFD). This syndrome is characterized by hyperlaxity of the skin involving the entire body. Important phenotypic differences with classical PXE include much more severe skin laxity with spreading toward the trunk and limbs with thick, leathery skin folds rather than confinement to flexural areas, and no decrease in visual acuity. Moreover, detailed electron microscopic analyzes revealed that alterations of elastic fibers as well as their mineralization are slightly different from those in classic PXE. Belongs to the vitamin K-dependent gamma-carboxylase family.
