CCT eta antibody | PK/16/8/a
Rat anti CCTη antibody, clone PK/16/8/a (MCA2179) used for the detection of CCT&eta in fetal and adult rabbit fibroblasts by western blotting.
Image caption:
CCT-eta but not CCT-beta protein and mRNA are differentially expressed in fetal versus adult fibroblasts. RNA and protein extracted from fetal and adult fibroblasts were subjected to qRT PCR (a & b) and Western blot (c & d) analyses respectively. CCT-eta mRNA was significantly more abundant in adult fibroblasts when compared to fetal fibroblasts (a); there was no significant difference in CCT-beta message levels between fetal and adult fibroblasts (b). Values are means ± SEM of three independent studies performed in duplicate. Statistical analyses were performed using Student's t test. NS = non-significant. Equal amounts of protein loaded from fetal and adult fibroblasts showed that adult fibroblasts express significantly greater CCT-eta protein(c). In contrast CCT-beta protein levels were not different between fetal and adult fibroblasts (d). Blots shown here are representative of at least three different experiments.

Rat anti CCTη antibody, clone PK/16/8/a (MCA2179) used for the detection of CCT&eta in fetal and adult rabbit fibroblasts by western blotting.
Image caption:
siRNA downregulation of CCT-eta but not CCT-beta reduces α-SMA protein levels in adult fibroblasts. (a & b)Western blot showed effective reduction of both CCT-eta and α-SMA protein levels when CCT-eta siRNA was administered, leaving beta-actin largely unaffected. In contrast, downregulating CCT-beta did not lead to significant reduction in either α-SMA or beta-actin levels. GAPDH was used as loading internal control. A representative immunoblot of up to three similar such blots are shown for each analysis. Ntx- no transfection; EGF-EGF treatment (1 nM); siRNA-treatment with CCT-eta/CCT-beta siRNA; Scr- treatment with scrambled control siRNA.

Antibody Quality and 
Unrivaled 
| Rat anti CCTeta antibody, clone PK/16/8/a recognizes the eta polypeptide of the CCT chaperonin molecule complex.CCTη is a 543 amino acid ~60 kDa molecule encoded by the CCT7 gene, a member of the TCP-1 chaperonin family (UniProt: Q2NKZ1) The intact CCT complex is composed of eight polypeptides in a double-ring structure. CCT is important within cells in aiding the folding of proteins including actin, tubulin and the VHL tumour suppressor protein. Rat anti CCTeta antibody, clone PK/16/8/a detects a band of ~60 kDa in HeLa cell lysates using western blotting under reducing conditions. |
