Background of MCM3
MCM3 (MINICHROMOSOME MAINTENANCE, S. CEREVISIAE, HOMOLOG OF, 3), also called RLFB or P1 PROTEIN, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MCM3 gene. MCM3 is one of the highly conserved mini-chromosome maintenance proteins (MCM) that are involved in the initiation of eukaryotic genome replication. The MCM3 gene is mapped to 6p12.2. This protein is a subunit of the protein complex that consists of MCM2-7. It has been shown to interact directly with MCM5/CDC46. This protein also interacts with, and thus is acetlyated by MCM3AP, a chromatin-associated acetyltransferase. The acetylation of this protein inhibits the initiation of DNA replication and cell cycle progression.
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 MCM3 using anti-MCM3 antibody (PA1651).
Electrophoresis was performed on a 8% 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 Hela whole cell lysates,
Lane 2: human K562 whole cell lysates,
Lane 3: human Raji whole cell lysates,
Lane 4: rat thymus tissue lysates,
Lane 5: rat C6 whole cell lysates,
Lane 6: mouse thymus tissue lysates,
Lane 7: mouse NIH/3T3 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-MCM3 antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (PA1651) 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 (Catalog # BA1054) 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 MCM3 at approximately 100-110 kDa. The expected band size for MCM3 is at 91 kDa.

Question
Will anti-MCM3 antibody PA1651 work on bovine WB with testis?
R. Li
Verified customer
Asked: 2020-04-15
Answer
Our lab technicians have not validated anti-MCM3 antibody PA1651 on bovine. You can run a BLAST between bovine and the immunogen sequence of anti-MCM3 antibody PA1651 to see if they may cross-react. If the sequence homology is close, then you can perform a pilot test. Keep in mind that since we have not validated bovine samples, this use of the antibody is not covered by our guarantee. However we have an innovator award program that if you test this antibody and show it works in bovine testis in WB, you can get your next antibody for free.

Question
Does PA1651 anti-MCM3 antibody work on parafin embedded sections? If so, which fixation method do you recommend we use (PFA, paraformaldehyde, other)?
Verified Customer
Verified customer
Asked: 2020-01-17
Answer
You can see on the product datasheet, PA1651 anti-MCM3 antibody as been validated on ICC. 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.

Question
We are currently using anti-MCM3 antibody PA1651 for human tissue, and we are satisfied with the WB results. The species of reactivity given in the datasheet says human, mouse, rat. Is it true that the antibody can work on canine tissues as well?
Verified Customer
Verified customer
Asked: 2019-12-18
Answer
The anti-MCM3 antibody (PA1651) has not been validated for cross reactivity specifically with canine 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 canine you can get your next antibody for free. Please contact me if I can help you with anything.

Question
My question regards to test anti-MCM3 antibody PA1651 on rat cervix carcinoma for research purposes, then I may be interested in using anti-MCM3 antibody PA1651 for diagnostic purposes as well. Is the antibody suitable for diagnostic purposes?
A. Gonzalez
Verified customer
Asked: 2014-04-18
Answer
The products we sell, including anti-MCM3 antibody PA1651, are only intended for research use. They would not be suitable for use in diagnostic work. If you have the means to develop a product into diagnostic use, and are interested in collaborating with us and develop our product into an IVD product, please contact us for more discussions.
