Nogo-C Antibody

Western blot shows lysates of human skeletal muscle. PVDF Membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Human Nogo-C Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF5766) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF016). A specific band was detected for Nogo-C at approximately 22 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.

Nogo-C was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human brain (medulla) using Human Nogo-C Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF5766) at 10 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Sheep HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS019) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to cytoplasm.

Background

Nogo belongs to the reticulon family of transmembrane proteins, which lack an N-terminal signal sequence and possess a 200 amino acid (aa) C-terminus that contains two transmembrane domains with an ER-retention motif. They show punctate intracellular distribution within the ER that is reminescent of a reticulum. The five Nogo isoforms vary from 199 (Nogo-C) to 1192 (Nogo-A; also called reticulon-4) aa in humans. Nogo-B or -C may form complexes with Nogo-A, and all may be expressed in neurons, endothelial cells, oligodendrocytes, fibroblasts and myoblasts. Of 11 aa unique to the N-terminus of human Nogo-C, 9 and 10 aa are identical in mouse and rat Nogo-C, respectively.

Limitations
