Western blot analysis of MUSK Antibody (N-term) in Jurkat cell line lysates (35 ug/lane). MUSK (arrow) was detected using the purified Pab.

MUSK Antibody (N-term) flow cytometric analysis of CEM cells (right histogram) compared to a negative control cell (left histogram). FITC-conjugated goat-anti-rabbit secondary antibodies were used for the analysis.

Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded human cancer tissue reacted with the primary antibody, which was peroxidase-conjugated to the secondary antibody, followed by AEC staining. This data demonstrates the use of this antibody for immunohistochemistry; clinical relevance has not been evaluated. BC = breast carcinoma; HC = hepatocarcinoma.

HA-tagged MuSK and GFP constructs were transfected into C2C12 cells. Transfected C2C12 cells were treated with cycloheximide (CHX) and at different times after addition of CHX, amounts of WT and mutant MuSK were analyzed by WB with anti-HA antibody. Alpha-tubulin was used as an internal control and transfection efficiency was verified with anti-GFP antibody.

MuSK protein expression in extracts of COS cells after transfection with MuSK mutated and GFP constructs. WB with polyclonal MuSK and monoclonal GFP antibodies showed normal expression of the wild-type MuSK protein (WT), diminished expression of the GA mutant MuSK and no expression of the insC mutant or the pcDNA3 vector alone in transfected COS cells. GFP cotransfection was used to verify transfection efficiency.
