DNA-PAINT: yes (see remarks)

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.

In antibody-based DNA-PAINT (Point Accumulation in Nanoscale Topography), a short oligomeric docking strand is coupled to a specific antibody. The transient association of the fluorophore to the antibody is mediated by the pairing of a short fluorescently labeled complementary imager DNA strand. DNA-PAINT allows super-resolution imaging and the imaging of a huge number of antibodies on the same biological sample in a single multiplex experiment. For additional experimental details refer to the Remarks section.

Immunogen Synthetic peptide corresponding to AA 580 to 594 from rat Munc18-1 (UniProt Id: P61765)

Background

Munc 18 is an abundant neuronal protein that tightly binds to the synaptic fusion protein syntaxin 1. It is highly homologous to the C. elegans unc-18 gene product, and weakly related to the yeast sec1, sly1, and slp1 genes.
There are three munc 18 isoforms in mammals. Munc 18-1 or 18a, also referred to as rb-sec1, n-sec1, stxbp1 and p67, is primarily expressed in neurons. Munc 18-2 or 18b, also referred to as stxbp2, and Munc 18-3 or 18c are expressed ubiquitously.
