Background of Cofilin
Cofilin, a member of the ADF/cofilin family, is actually a protein with 70% sequence homology to ADF, making it part of the ADF/cofilin family of small ADP-binding proteins. It is a ubiquitous actin-binding factor required for the reorganization of actin filaments. The protein is known to sever actin filaments by creating more positive ends on filament fragments, it can cause depolymerization at the minus end of filaments, thereby preventing their reassembly. As a long-lasting in vivo effect, cofilin recycles older ADP-F-actin, helping cell to maintain ATP-G-actin pool for sustained motility. pH, phosphorylation and phosphoinositides regulate cofilin’s binding and associating activity with actin.
Antibody Validation
Boster validates all antibodies on WB, IHC, ICC, Immunofluorescence, and ELISA with known positive control and negative samples to ensure specificity and high affinity, including thorough antibody incubations.

After electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane at 150 mA 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-Cofilin antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (Catalog # PB9033) 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 1:5000 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 Cofilin at approximately 19 kDa. The expected band size for Cofilin is at 19 kDa.

5 Customer Q&As for Anti-Cofilin/CFL1 Antibody Picoband®
Question
We bought anti-Cofilin/CFL1 antibody for WB on pre-b cell in the past. I am using rat, and We intend to use the antibody for IHC-P next. I was wanting to use examining pre-b cell as well as b-cell lymphoma in our next experiment. Could you please give me some suggestion on which antibody would work the best for IHC-P?

Asked: 2019-08-12
Answer
I took a look at the website and datasheets of our anti-Cofilin/CFL1 antibody and I see that PB9033 has been validated on rat in both WB and IHC-P. Thus PB9033 should work for your application. Our Boster satisfaction guarantee will cover this product for IHC-P in rat even if the specific tissue type has not been validated. We do have a comprehensive range of products for IHC-P detection and you can check out our website bosterbio.com to find out more information about them.

Answer
Based on literature lung does express CFL1. Based on Uniprot.org, CFL1 is expressed in cerebellum, placenta, pre-b cell, testis, lung, ovary, placenta uterus, platelet, b-cell lymphoma, brain, cajal-retzius cell fetal brain cortex, lymphoblast, cervix carcinoma, leukemic t-cell, cervix carcinoma erythroleukemia, liver, among other tissues. Regarding which tissues have CFL1 expression, here are a few articles citing expression in various tissues:

Question
We are currently using anti-Cofilin/CFL1 antibody PB9033 for mouse tissue, and we are happy with the Flow Cytometry results. The species of reactivity given in the datasheet says human, monkey, mouse, rat. Is it possible that the antibody can work on pig tissues as well?

Asked: 2018-01-11
Answer
The anti-Cofilin/CFL1 antibody (PB9033) has not been tested for cross reactivity specifically with pig 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 pig you can get your next antibody for free. Please contact me if I can help you with anything.
