AOX | AOX positive control/quantitation standard

Cat: PA00970
Size: 120 µl
Datasheet:

Product Info

Format
Lyophilized
Reconstitution
For reconstitution add 100 µl of milliQ water. Please note that this product contains 10% glycerol and might appear as liquid but is provided lyophilized.
Storage
Store lyophilized/reconstituted at -20°C; once reconstituted make aliquots to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Please, remember to spin tubes briefly prior to opening them to avoid any losses that might occur from lyophilized material adhering to the cap or sides of the tubes.
Application
Western blot (WB)
Recommended dilution
Standard curve: 3 loads are recommended (0.5, 2 and 4μl).For most applications a sample load of 0.2 μg of chlorophyll/well will give a RbcL signal in this range. Positive control: a 2 μl load per well is optimal for most chemiluminescent detection systems. Higher standard concentration needs to be used to allow detection by Coomasie stains. Such gels with higher standard concentration can not be used for quantitation using chemiluminescence. This standard is stabilized and ready and does not require heating before loading on the gel. Please note that this product contains 10% glycerol and might appear as liquid but is provided lyophilized. Allow the product several minutes to solubilize after adding water. Mix thoroughly but gently Take extra care to mix thoroughly before each use, as the proteins tend to settle with the more dense layer after freezing.

Reactivity

Additional information

The AOX calibrated protein standard can be used in combination with Agrisera global anti-AOX antibodies to quantitate AOX from a wide range of species. Global antibodies are raised against highly conserved amino acid sequence.  Quantitative western blot:  detailed method description, video tutorial,Concentration: 0.1 pmol/µl. After re-constitution with sterile milliQ water, the final concentration of the AOX monomer is.0.1 pmol/µl. While a dimer is present in the lane, only the 27 kDa monomer contributes to the calibration. Protein standard buffer composition: Glycerol 10%, Tris Base 141 mM, Tris HCl 106 mM, LDS 2%, EDTA 0.51 mM, SERVA Blue G250 0.22 mM, Phenol Red 0.175 mM, pH 8.5, 0.1mg/ml PefaBloc protease inhibitor (Roche), 50 mM DTT.This standard is ready-to-load and does not require any additions or heating. It needs to be fully thawed and thoroughly mixed prior to using. Avoid vigorous vortexing, as buffers contain detergent. Following mixing, briefly pulse in a microcentrifuge to collect material from cap.

Description

Replacement oxidase (AOX) is a quinoline oxidase located in the membrane of plant mitochondria. They act as terminal oxidases in alternating electron transport pathways, oxidizing ubiquinone to reduce oxygen to water. AOX standard source: The AOX standard source is Sphingosphinomonas Wilsoni RW1, which is overexpressed in Escherichia coli and carries the n-terminal his6 label.
