Background of BMI1
BMI1 (BMI1 polycomb ring finger oncogene),also known as RNF51, is a protein which in humans is encoded by the BMI1 gene. The Bmi1 gene is highly conserved in evolution as indicated by zoo blot hybridization with Bmi1 probes corresponding to the protein-encoding domain. By fluorescence in situ hybridization, the human BMI1 gene is assigned to chromosome 10p13. BMI1 has a key role in regulating the proliferative activity of normal stem and progenitor cells. Most importantly, they provided evidence that the proliferative potential of leukemic stem and progenitor cells lacking BMI1 is compromised because they eventually undergo proliferation arrest and show signs of differentiation and apoptosis, leading to transplant failure of the leukemia. Complementation studies showed that BMI1 completely rescues these proliferative defects. Deletion analysis showed that the RING finger and helix-turn-helix domains of BMI1 were required for life span extension and repression of the tumor suppressor p16 (INK4). BMI1 selectively extended the life span of these cultures. Confocal microscopy showed that BMI1 transiently colocalized with centromeres during interphase in HeLa cells.

Western blot analysis of BMI1 using anti-BMI1 antibody (PA1807).
Electrophoresis was performed on a 10% SDS-PAGE gel at 80V (Stacking gel) / 120V (Resolving gel) for 2 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 A431 whole cell lysates,
Lane 3: human U251 whole cell lysates,
Lane 4: human K562 whole cell 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-BMI1 antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (PA1807) 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 ECL Plus Western Blotting Substrate (Catalog # AR1196-200) with Tanon 5200 system. A specific band was detected for BMI1 at approximately 40 kDa. The expected band size for BMI1 is at 37 kDa.

Question
Would PA1807 anti-Bmi1 antibody work on parafin embedded sections? If so, which fixation method do you recommend we use (PFA, paraformaldehyde, other)?
Verified Customer
Verified customer
Asked: 2020-02-04
Answer
It shows on the product datasheet, PA1807 anti-Bmi1 antibody as been tested on WB. It is best to use PFA for fixation because it has better tissue penetration ability. PFA needs to be prepared fresh before use. Long term stored PFA turns into formalin, as the PFA molecules congregate and become formalin.

Asked: 2018-02-26
Answer
The immunogen of PA1807 anti-Bmi1 antibody is A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence in the middle region of human Bmi1(136-152aa EFFDQNRLDRKVNKDKE), different from the related mouse sequence by three amino acids. Could you tell me which isotype you are interested in so I can help see if the immunogen is part of this isotype?

Question
I have a question about product PA1807, anti-Bmi1 antibody. I was wondering if it would be possible to conjugate this antibody with biotin. I would need it to be without BSA or sodium azide. I am planning on using a buffer exchange of sodium azide with PBS only. Would there be problems for me to conjugate the antibody and store it in -20 degrees in small aliquots?
S. Anderson
Verified customer
Asked: 2016-02-08
Answer
We suggest not storing this antibody with PBS buffer only in -20 degrees. If you want to store it in -20 degrees it is best to add some cryoprotectant like glycerol. If you want carrier free PA1807 anti-Bmi1 antibody, we can provide it to you in a special formula with trehalose and/or glycerol. These molecules will not interfere with conjugation chemistry and provide a good level of protection for the antibody from degradation. Please be sure to specify this in your purchase order.
