Chicken polyclonal antibody to human GFRa-4
308-100
Datasheet as| Name | Chickenpolyclonal antibody to human GFRa-4 |
| Immunogen | human GFRa-4 |
| Immunogen Description | Recombinant His-tagged human GFRa-4 protein produced
using CHO-based Icosagen Cell factory Ltd. proprietary suspension cell line.
For production of hGFRa-4, glycosylphosphatidyl-inositol GPI-anchor was removed
and protein was secreted to the cell culture supernatant. Protein was purified
by Ni-affinity chromatography following gel-filtration from cell culture

Figure 1. IF detection of human GFRα-4 expressed in U2OS
cells. GFRα-4 was visualized using Chicken polyclonal antibody to human GFRα-4
(dilution 1:2000) and Goat anti-chicken IgY - H&L DyLight 550 (Abcam,
ab96952) (dilution 1:200) as secondary antibody. For nuclear staining DAPI was
used. ArrayScan VTI platform (Thermo Scientific) was used for image acquisition
(10x objective). Composite picture was generated using pseudocolors green for
GFRα-4 specific signal and blue for nuclei

detection of human GFRα-4, using Chicken polyclonal antibody to human GFRα-4. Protein
was expressed by CHO cell culture. 100 ng of purified protein was loaded per
lane. Line 1. hGFRα-4. Primary
antibody dilution 1:5000 was used. Line
2. Prestained protein ladder (Naxo 8003). Rabbit anti-chicken antibody, HRP
conjugate (903-100, Icosagen) was used as secondary antibody
