Key features and details | |
Cat. No. | MABL-2775 |
Name | Anti-puromycin mAbs |
Clone No. | AFD- 3RH11 |
From | Recombinant Antibody |
Isotype | Engineer antibody |
Application | functional assays, WB, ELISA, IF |
Species Reactivity | Species independent |
Basic Information | |
Specificity | This antibody recognizes puromycin, an aminonucleoside antibiotic, derived from the Streptomyces alboniger bacterium, that causes premature chain termination during translation. Part of the molecule resembles the 3' end of the aminoacylated tRNA, making it useful for protein translation analysis. |
Alternative Name | aminonucleoside antibiotic puromycin |
UniProt | |
Immunogen | The original mouse IgG1 antibody was raised against puromycin hydrochloride. |
Application Notes | This monoclonal antibody to puromycin provides a non-radioactive method to measure rates of global protein synthesis (mRNA translation) in cells or tissue slices incubated with puromycin, or animals treated with puromycin in vivo (Frolinger et al., 2018; pmid: 29702026). 3RH11 offers advantageous alternative to traditional pulse-chase methods, which rely on radioactive amino acid labeling as it allows for the simple evaluation and quantification of translation directly using standard immunochemical methods (Balukoff et al., 2020; pmid: 33188200). Classical pulse-chase or flooding dose methods used to monitor protein synthesis rely on the measurement of radioactive methionine and cysteine labels. Analysis using puromycin immunodetection is an advantageous alternative to radioactive amino acid labeling, and allows for the evaluation/quantification of translation directly using standard immunochemical methods (Frolinger et al., 2018; pmid: 29702026). |
