Background of VASA
DDX4 (DEAD/H BOX 4), also known as VASA. The deduced 724-amino acid VASA protein contains the 8 conserved domains found in all known DEAD box proteins. The amino acid sequence in this core region shows greater similarity to VASA homologs in other species than to other human DEAD box proteins. By radiation hybrid analysis, Castrillon et al. (2000) mapped the VASA gene to 5q. By fluorescence in situ hybridization, they refined the localization to 5q11.2-q12. This region is syntenic to the distal end of mouse chromosome 13, where the mouse VASA homolog (Ddx4) resides (Abe and Noce, 1997). Using a combination of proteomics, cytology, and functional analysis in C. elegans, Chu et al. (2006) reduced 1,099 proteins copurified with spermatogenic chromatin to 132 proteins for functional analysis.
Antibody Validation

Figure 1. Western blot analysis of DDX4 using anti-DDX4 antibody (PA1963).
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: rat testis tissue lysates,
Lane 2: mouse testis 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-DDX4 antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (Catalog # PA1963) 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 DDX4 at approximately 76 kDa. The expected band size for DDX4 is at 76 kDa.

Figure 2. IHC analysis of DDX4/MVH using anti-DDX4/MVH antibody (PA1963).
DDX4/MVH was detected in paraffin-embedded section of human ovarian cancer 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-DDX4/MVH Antibody (PA1963) 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.

DDX4/MVH was detected in immunocytochemical section of U20S cells. Enzyme antigen retrieval was performed using IHC enzyme antigen retrieval reagent (AR0022) for 15 mins. The cells were blocked with 10% goat serum. And then incubated with 2μg/mL rabbit anti- DDX4/MVH Antibody (PA1963) overnight at 4°C. DyLight®594 Conjugated Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG (BA1142) was used as secondary antibody at 1:100 dilution and incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C. The section was counterstained with DAPI. Visualize using a fluorescence microscope and filter sets appropriate for the label used.

The cells were blocked with 10% normal goat serum. And then incubated with rabbit anti-DDX4/MVH Antibody (PA1963, 1μg/1x106 cells) for 30 min at 20°C. DyLight®488 conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (BA1127, 5-10μg/1x106 cells) was used as secondary antibody for 30 minutes at 20°C. Isotype control antibody (Green line) was rabbit IgG (1μg/1x106) used under the same conditions. Unlabelled sample without incubation with primary antibody and secondary antibody (Red line) was used as a blank control.

Question
We are currently using anti-DDX4/MVH antibody PA1963 for mouse tissue, and we are happy with the Flow Cytometry results. The species of reactivity given in the datasheet says human, mouse, rat. Is it true that the antibody can work on canine tissues as well?

Answer
The anti-DDX4/MVH antibody (PA1963) has not been tested for cross reactivity specifically with canine tissues, but 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 canine you can get your next antibody for free. Please contact me if I can help you with anything.
