Background of Cytochrome c
Cytochrome C is located in the mitochondria of all aerobic cells and is involved in the electron transport system. Human cytochrome c has 104 amino acid residues and a molecular weight of 11,458 and is mapped to 7p15.2. Cytochrome c released from mitochondria has been proposed to be an essential component of an apoptotic pathway responsive to DNA damage and other forms of cell stress. And it has a role in different apoptotic signaling cascades.
Antibody Validation

Figure 1. Western blot analysis of Cytochrome c/CYCS using anti-Cytochrome c/CYCS antibody (PA1118).
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 30 ug of sample under reducing conditions.
Lane 1: human Hela whole cell lysates,
Lane 2: human 293T whole cell lysates,
Lane 3: human HepG2 whole cell lysates,
Lane 4: human HT1080 whole cell lysates,
Lane 5: rat kidney tissue lysates,
Lane 6: rat skeletal muscle tissue lysates,
Lane 7: mouse kidney tissue lysates,
Lane 8: mouse skeletal muscle tissue lysates.
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-Cytochrome c/CYCS antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (PA1118) 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 Cytochrome c/CYCS at approximately 14 kDa. The expected band size for Cytochrome c/CYCS is at 12 kDa.

Figure 5. IHC analysis of Cytochrome C using anti-Cytochrome C antibody (PA1118).
Cytochrome C was detected in paraffin-embedded section of human skeletal muscle tissues. 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-Cytochrome C Antibody (PA1118) 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.

Question
My question regarding product PA1118, anti-Cytochrome C/CYCS antibody. I was wondering if it would be possible to conjugate this antibody with biotin. I would need it to be without BSA or sodium azide. I am planning on using a buffer exchange of sodium azide with PBS only. Would there be problems for me to conjugate the antibody and store it in -20 degrees in small aliquots?
A. Carter
Verified customer
Asked: 2020-01-14
Answer
We suggest not storing this antibody with PBS buffer only in -20 degrees. If you want to store it in -20 degrees it is best to add some cryoprotectant like glycerol. If you want carrier free PA1118 anti-Cytochrome C/CYCS antibody, we can provide it to you in a special formula with trehalose and/or glycerol. These molecules will not interfere with conjugation chemistry and provide a good level of protection for the antibody from degradation. Please be sure to specify this in your purchase order.

Question
Would PA1118 anti-Cytochrome C/CYCS antibody work on parafin embedded sections? If so, which fixation method do you recommend we use (PFA, paraformaldehyde, other)?
N. Li
Verified customer
Asked: 2016-03-21
Answer
It shows on the product datasheet, PA1118 anti-Cytochrome C/CYCS antibody as been validated on ICC. 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.
