Background of AMACR
Alpha-methylacyl-CoA racemase (AMACR) is a mitochondrial and peroxisomal enzyme. It encodes a racemase. The encoded enzyme interconverts pristanoyl-CoA and C27-bile acylCoAs between their (R)- and (S)-stereoisomers. The conversion to the (S)-stereoisomers is necessary for degradation of these substrates by peroxisomal beta-oxidation. Encoded proteins from this locus localize to both mitochondria and peroxisomes. Mutations in this gene may be associated with adult-onset sensorimotor neuropathy, pigmentary retinopathy, and adrenomyeloneuropathy due to defects in bile acid synthesis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. Read-through transcription also exists between this gene and the upstream neighboring C1QTNF3 (C1q and tumor necrosis factor related protein 3) gene.
Antibody Validation
Boster validates all antibodies on WB, IHC, ICC, Immunofluorescence, and ELISA with known positive control and negative samples to ensure specificity and high affinity, including thorough antibody incubations.

Western blot analysis of AMACR using anti-AMACR antibody (PB9983).
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 30 ug of sample under reducing conditions.
Lane 1: human 293T whole cell lysates,
Lane 2: human LNCAP whole cell lysates,
Lane 3: human HepG2 whole cell lysates,
Lane 4: human Hela whole cell lysates,
Lane 5: rat kidney tissue lysates,
Lane 6: rat liver tissue lysates,
Lane 7: mouse kidney tissue lysates,
Lane 8: 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 rabbit anti-AMACR antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (Catalog # PB9983) 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-rabbit IgG-HRP secondary antibody at a dilution of 1:5000 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal is developed using an Enhanced Chemiluminescent detection (ECL) kit (Catalog # EK1002) with Tanon 5200 system. A specific band was detected for AMACR at approximately 42 kDa. The expected band size for AMACR is at 42 kDa.

IHC analysis of AMACR using anti-AMACR antibody (PB9983).
AMACR was detected in a paraffin-embedded section of human stomach cancer tissue. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed in EDTA buffer (pH 8.0, epitope retrieval solution). The tissue section was blocked with 10% goat serum. The tissue section was then incubated with 2 μg/ml rabbit anti-AMACR Antibody (PB9983) overnight at 4°C. Peroxidase Conjugated Goat Anti-rabbit IgG was used as secondary antibody and incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C. The tissue section was developed using HRP Conjugated Rabbit IgG Super Vision Assay Kit (Catalog # SV0002) with DAB as the chromogen.

IF analysis of AMACR using anti-AMACR antibody (PB9983).
AMACR was detected in an immunocytochemical section of U2OS cells. Enzyme antigen retrieval was performed using IHC enzyme antigen retrieval reagent (AR0022) for 15 mins. The cells were blocked with 10% goat serum. And then incubated with 5 μg/mL rabbit anti-AMACR Antibody (PB9983) overnight at 4°C. DyLight®488 Conjugated Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG (BA1127) was used as secondary antibody at 1:500 dilution and incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C. The section was counterstained with DAPI.

IF analysis of AMACR and TP63 using anti-AMACR antibody (PB9983) and anti-TP63 antibody (PB9152).
AMACR and TP63 were detected in paraffin-embedded sections of human prostatic hyperplasia tissue. Heat-mediated antigen retrieval was performed in EDTA buffer (pH 8.0). Tissue sections were blocked with 5% BSA. The sections were incubated overnight with 5 μg/mL rabbit Anti-TP63 antibody (PB9152). HRP-labeled secondary antibody was added dropwise and incubated for 30 minutes. TYR-570plus fluorescent dye reaction solution was then added dropwise and incubated at room temperature in the dark.
Next, the sections were immersed in antigen retrieval buffer again to elute the bound antibodies. The staining steps were then repeated for the second round of labeling. Anti-AMACR antibody (PB9983) was diluted 1:50 and incubated with the sections overnight at 4°C. HRP-labeled secondary antibody was added dropwise and incubated for 30 minutes. After washing, TYR-520 plus fluorescent dye reaction solution was added dropwise and incubated at room temperature in the dark.
Finally, DAPI staining solution was added dropwise to stain the nuclei, and the slides were sealed with an anti-fade mounting medium. The results were observed under a fluorescence microscope.

Question
We are currently using anti-AMACR antibody PB9983 for rat tissue, and we are content with the WB results. The species of reactivity given in the datasheet says human, rat. Is it likely that the antibody can work on feline tissues as well?

Answer
The anti-AMACR antibody (PB9983) has not been tested for cross reactivity specifically with feline tissues, but there is a good chance of cross reactivity. We have an innovator award program that if you test this antibody and show it works in feline you can get your next antibody for free. Please contact me if I can help you with anything.
