As part of the Signal-Seeker™ product line, Ubiquitin affinity beads have been optimized in order to detect endogenous levels of mono- and poly-ubiqutinated proteins, which often represent <1% of the target protein. UBA01B-Beads can enrich all ubiquitinated species with a high affinity, including mono-, multi- and polyubiquitin chains (see Application 1 below). The affinity moeities have been cross-linked to beads for low leaching and cleaner detection of the protein of interest. A comprehensive Signal-Seeker™ Ubiquitination Detection Kit is also available (BK161) and is recommended for first time users.
Note: The product #s have been updated from UBA01 and CUB02 to UBA01B and CUB02B beads due to a reformulation of the bead preservation buffer. Reformulation results in an enhanced bead performance post-lyophilization. The affinity protein formulation on the beads has not changed.
Validation Data: Ubiquitination Affinity Beads White Paper
Each lot of affinity-bead is quality controlled to provide high batch to batch consistency, see COA documents.
Figure 1: Swiss 3T3 cells were pre-treated with MG-132, then either untreated or treated with CNF1 (CN04) for 3 hours prior to lysis with BlastR buffer. The BK161 kit was utilized to perform the IP on 300 μg of lysate per condition. Lane 1: 3 μg input untreated lysate, Lane 2: Ubiquitin Affinity beads (UBA01) plus untreated lysate, Lane 3: UBA01 plus CN04 treated lysate, Lane 4: ubiquitin control beads (CUB02) plus untreated lysate, Lane 5: CUB02 plus CN04 treated lysate. Samples were analyzed for Rac1 ubiquitination using an anti-Rac1 antibody.
Amount:
Each package contains enough ubiquitin beads for 40 reactions and sufficient control beads for 5 reactions.
