Flow Cytometry analysis of A549 cells using anti-Retinoid X Receptor alpha/RXRA antibody. Overlay histogram showing A549 cells (Blue line). To facilitate intracellular staining, cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with permeabilization buffer. The cells were blocked with 10% normal goat serum. And then incubated with mouse anti-Retinoid X Receptor alpha/RXRA Antibody (1 µg/1x10^6 cells) for 30 min at 20°C. DyLight®488 conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG (5-10 µg/1x10^6 cells) was used as secondary antibody for 30 minutes at 20°C. Isotype control antibody (Green line) was mouse IgG (1 µg/1x10^6) used under the same conditions. Unlabelled sample without incubation with primary antibody and secondary antibody (Red line) was used as a blank control.

Western blot analysis of Retinoid X Receptor alpha/RXRA using anti-Retinoid X Receptor alpha/RXRA antibody. 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 50 ug of sample under reducing conditions. Lane 1: human Hela whole cell lysates; Lane 2: human A549 whole cell lysates; Lane 3: human HepG2 whole cell lysates; Lane 4: human Caco-2 whole cell lysates; Lane 5: human HL-60 whole cell lysates; Lane 6: rat liver tissue lysates; Lane 7: mouse liver 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 mouse anti-Retinoid X Receptor alpha/RXRA antigen affinity purified monoclonal antibody 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-mouse IgG-HRP secondary antibody at a dilution of 1:10000 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal is developed using an Enhanced Chemiluminescent detection (ECL) kit with Tanon 5200 system. A specific band was detected for Retinoid X Receptor alpha/RXRA at approximately 55 KD. The expected band size for Retinoid X Receptor alpha/RXRA is at 51 KD.
