Background of Cd59a
CD59 glycoprotein, also known as MAC-inhibitory protein (MAC-IP), membrane inhibitor of reactive lysis (MIRL), or protectin, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CD59 gene. This gene encodes a cell surface glycoprotein that regulates complement-mediated cell lysis, and it is involved in lymphocyte signal transduction. This protein is a potent inhibitor of the complement membrane attack complex, whereby it binds complement C8 and/or C9 during the assembly of this complex, thereby inhibiting the incorporation of multiple copies of C9 into the complex, which is necessary for osmolytic pore formation. This protein also plays a role in signal transduction pathways in the activation of T cells. Mutations in this gene cause CD59 deficiency, a disease resulting in hemolytic anemia and thrombosis, and which causes cerebral infarction. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants, which encode the same protein, have been identified for this gene.

Figure 1. Western blot analysis of CD59 using anti-CD59 antibody (A00914).
Electrophoresis was performed on a 5-20% SDS-PAGE gel at 70V (Stacking gel) / 90V (Resolving gel) for 2-3 hours. The sample well of each lane was loaded with 50ug of sample under reducing conditions.
Lane 1: rat liver tissue lysates,
Lane 2: rat kidney tissue lysates,
Lane 3: rat spleen tissue lysates,
Lane 4: rat brain tissue lysates.
After Electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a Nitrocellulose membrane at 150mA for 50-90 minutes. Blocked the membrane with 5% Non-fat Milk/ TBS for 1.5 hour at RT. The membrane was incubated with rabbit anti-CD59 antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (Catalog # A00914) at 0.5 μg/mL overnight at 4°C, then washed with TBS-0.1%Tween 3 times with 5 minutes each and probed with a goat anti-rabbit IgG-HRP secondary antibody at a dilution of 1:10000 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal is developed using an Enhanced Chemiluminescent detection (ECL) kit (Catalog # EK1002) with Tanon 5200 system. A specific band was detected for CD59 at approximately 20KD. The expected band size for CD59 is at 14KD.

Figure 2. IHC analysis of CD59 using anti-CD59 antibody (A00914).
CD59 was detected in paraffin-embedded section of mouse spleen tissue. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed in citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution) for 20 mins. The tissue section was blocked with 10% goat serum. The tissue section was then incubated with 1μg/ml rabbit anti-CD59 Antibody (A00914) overnight at 4°C. Biotinylated goat anti-rabbit IgG was used as secondary antibody and incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C. The tissue section was developed using Strepavidin-Biotin-Complex (SABC)(Catalog # SA1022) with DAB as the chromogen.

7 Customer Q&As for Anti-CD59/Cd59a Antibody Picoband®
Question
We are currently using anti-CD59/Cd59a antibody A00914 for mouse tissue, and we are satisfied with the WB results. The species of reactivity given in the datasheet says mouse, rat. Is it possible that the antibody can work on goat tissues as well?
Verified Customer

Asked: 2019-11-04
Answer
The anti-CD59/Cd59a antibody (A00914) has not been validated for cross reactivity specifically with goat tissues, though there is a good chance of cross reactivity. We have an innovator award program that if you test this antibody and show it works in goat you can get your next antibody for free. Please contact me if I can help you with anything.

Question
Does A00914 anti-CD59/Cd59a antibody work on parafin embedded sections? If so, which fixation method do you recommend we use (PFA, paraformaldehyde, other)?
Verified Customer
Verified customer
Asked: 2019-10-07
Answer
It shows on the product datasheet, A00914 anti-CD59/Cd59a antibody as been validated on ELISA. It is best to use PFA for fixation because it has better tissue penetration ability. PFA needs to be prepared fresh before use. Long term stored PFA turns into formalin, as the PFA molecules congregate and become formalin.

Question
Does anti-CD59/Cd59a antibody A00914 work on pig WB with kidney?
T. Evans
Verified customer
Asked: 2014-04-18
Answer
Our lab technicians have not tested anti-CD59/Cd59a antibody A00914 on pig. You can run a BLAST between pig and the immunogen sequence of anti-CD59/Cd59a antibody A00914 to see if they may cross-react. If the sequence homology is close, then you can perform a pilot test. Keep in mind that since we have not validated pig samples, this use of the antibody is not covered by our guarantee. However we have an innovator award program that if you test this antibody and show it works in pig kidney in WB, you can get your next antibody for free.
