Western blot (WB); separation of proteins by PAGE and subsequent transfer to a membrane. Detection of target molecules is carried out with antibodies. Some antibodies require special sample preparation steps. For details, please refer to the “Remarks” section.

Immunoprecipitation (IP); Immunoisolation or pulldown of a target molecule using an antibody. For details and product specific hints, please refer to the ”Remarks” section.

Immunocytochemistry (ICC) on 4% PFA fixed cells. Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence. Some antibodies require special fixation methods. For details, please refer to the “Remarks” section.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC) on 4% PFA perfusion fixed tissue with 24h PFA post fixation. Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence or a chromogenic substrate. Some antibodies require special fixation methods or antigen retrieval steps. For details, please refer to the ”Remarks” section.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P) of formalin fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue (some antibodies require special antigen retrieval steps, please refer to the ”Remarks” section). Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence or a chromogenic substrate.

Background

The early growth response protein 1 (EGR1) and its relatives EGR2 and 3 are zinc finger transcription factors that regulate the expression of numerous target genes in response to neural activity, growth factors, DNA damage ischemia, cancer development and more (1).
EGR1 belongs to the neuronal activity-inducible immediate early genes involved in synaptic plasticity, learning and memory (2). In contrast to other immediate early genes EGR1 displays a relatively high basal expression level driven by natural synaptic activity (3).
In cancer, EGR1 is involved in tumorigenesis and tumor progression (4) and has been shown to play a role as a central regulator of early inflammatory and immune responses (5).
