Applications
 
WB: 1 : 1000 (AP staining) gallery  
IP: yes
ICC: not tested yet
IHC: not recommended
IHC-P: not tested yet

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.

Immunogen Synthetic peptide corresponding to AA 192 to 196 from mouse Rab5 (UniProt Id: Q9CQD1)
Reactivity Reacts with: human (Q9UJ41), rat (M0RC99), mouse (Q9JM13).
Other species not tested yet.

Background
Rab 5 is a member of the Rab protein family that belongs to the ras-related superfamily of small monomeric GTPases. Rab 5 is ubiquitously expressed in all tissues where it functions in the fusion of early endosomes which is the first fusion step of endocytic organelles after their formation and detachment from the plasma membrane. It is presently the best marker with selectivity for this compartment.
