Product Specific Information
MA1-872 detects AP-2 from human, mouse, and chicken samples.
MA1-872 has been successfully used in Western blot, immunoprecipitation, and immunofluorescence applications. By Western blot, this antibody detects a 45-50 kDa band representing AP-2. For Western blotting, block with BSA only (not milk).
The MA1-872 immunogen is the N-terminus of human AP2a.
General Information
AP-2, also known as ERF-1, plays an important role in regulating estrogen receptor expression. It also may play a role in the development of ectodermal-derived tissue. Mutations in the AP-2 gene have been linked to many eye chamber defects.

AP2 Antibody (MA1-872) in IF
Immunofluorescence with anti-AP2 Monoclonal Antibody [3B5] (MA1-872)
Immunofluorescent analysis of AP2 using Anti-AP2 Monoclonal Antibody (3B5) (Product# MA1-872) shows staining in Hela Cells. AP2 staining (green), F-Actin staining with Phalloidin (red) and nuclei with DAPI (blue) is shown. Cells were grown on chamber slides and fixed with formaldehyde prior to staining. Cells were probed without (control) or with or an antibody recognizing AP2 (Product# MA1-872) at a dilution of 1:100 over night at 4 ◦C, washed with PBS and incubated with a DyLight-488 conjugated secondary antibody (Product# 35503, Goat Anti-Mouse). Images were taken at 60X magnification.
Immunofluorescent analysis of AP2 using Anti-AP2 Monoclonal Antibody (3B5) (Product# MA1-872) shows staining in MCF-7 Cells. AP2 staining (green), F-Actin staining with Phalloidin (red) and nuclei with DAPI (blue) is shown. Cells were grown on chamber slides and fixed with formaldehyde prior to staining. Cells were probed without (control) or with or an antibody recognizing AP2 (Product# MA1-872) at a dilution of 1:20 over night at 4 ◦C, washed with PBS and incubated with a DyLight-488 conjugated secondary antibody (Product# 35503, Goat Anti-Mouse). Images were taken at 60X magnification.
Immunofluorescent analysis of AP2 using Anti-AP2 Monoclonal Antibody (3B5) (Product# MA1-872) shows staining in U251 Cells. AP2 staining (green), F-Actin staining with Phalloidin (red) and nuclei with DAPI (blue) is shown. Cells were grown on chamber slides and fixed with formaldehyde prior to staining. Cells were probed without (control) or with or an antibody recognizing AP2 (Product# MA1-872) at a dilution of 1:100 over night at 4 ◦C, washed with PBS and incubated with a DyLight-488 conjugated secondary antibody (Product# 35503, Goat Anti-Mouse). Images were taken at 60X magnification.
Immunohistochemistry was performed on cancer biopsies of deparaffinized Human breast carcinoma tissue. To expose target proteins, heat induced antigen retrieval was performed using 10mM sodium citrate (pH6.0) buffer, microwaved for 8-15 minutes. Following antigen retrieval tissues were blocked in 3% BSA-PBS for 30 minutes at room temperature. Tissues were then probed at a dilution of 1:50 with a mouse monoclonal antibody recognizing AP2 (MA1-872) or without primary antibody (negative control) overnight at 4°C in a humidified chamber. Tissues were washed extensively with PBST and endogenous peroxidase activity was quenched with a peroxidase suppressor. Detection was performed using a biotin-conjugated secondary antibody and SA-HRP, followed by colorimetric detection using DAB. Tissues were counterstained with hematoxylin and prepped for mounting.
