Background of FGB

Fibrinogen beta chain, mapped to 4q31.3, is also known as FGB. The protein encoded by this gene is the beta component of fibrinogen, a blood-borne glycoprotein comprised of three pairs of nonidentical polypeptide chains. Following vascular injury, fibrinogen is cleaved by thrombin to form fibrin which is the most abundant component of blood clots. In addition, various cleavage products of fibrinogen and fibrin regulate cell adhesion and spreading, display vasoconstrictor and chemotactic activities, and are mitogens for several cell types. Mutations in this gene lead to several disorders, including afibrinogenemia, dysfibrinogenemia, hypodysfibrinogenemia and thrombotic tendency. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this 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.

Figure 1. Western blot analysis of Fibrinogen beta chain/FGB using anti-Fibrinogen beta chain/FGB antibody (A01204-1).
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 HepG2 whole cell lysates,
Lane 2: rat kidney tissue lysates,
Lane 3: rat liver tissue lysates,
Lane 4: mouse kidney tissue lysates,
Lane 5: 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-Fibrinogen beta chain/FGB antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (Catalog # A01204-1) 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 Fibrinogen beta chain/FGB at approximately 56 kDa. The expected band size for Fibrinogen beta chain/FGB is at 56 kDa.

Figure 2. IF analysis of Fibrinogen beta chain/FGB using anti-Fibrinogen beta chain/FGB antibody (A01204-1).
Fibrinogen beta chain/FGB was detected in an immunocytochemical section of A549 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-Fibrinogen beta chain/FGB Antibody (A01204-1) overnight at 4°C. DyLight594 Conjugated Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG (BA1142) was used as secondary antibody at 1:500 dilution and incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C. The section was counterstained with DAPI. Visualize using a fluorescence microscope and filter sets appropriate for the label used.

Overlay histogram showing HepG2 cells stained with A01204-1 (Blue line). The cells were blocked with 10% normal goat serum. And then incubated with rabbit anti-Fibrinogen beta chain/FGB Antibody (A01204-1, 1 μg/1x10⁶ cells) for 30 min at 20°C. DyLight®488 conjugated goat anti-rabbit IgG (BA1127, 5-10 μg/1x10⁶ cells) was used as secondary antibody for 30 minutes at 20°C. Isotype control antibody (Green line) was rabbit IgG (1 μg/1x10⁶) used under the same conditions. Unlabelled sample (Red line) was also used as a control.
