Background of MDM2
Mdm2 is an important negative regulator of the p53 tumor suppressor. It is the name of a gene as well as the protein encoded by that gene. Mdm2 protein functions both as an E3 ubiquity lipase that recognizes the N-terminal trans-activation domain (TAD) of the p53 tumor suppressor and an inhibitor of p53 transcriptional activation. Oliner et al. (1992) used MDM2 clones to localize the human gene to chromosome 12q13-q14 by analysis of human-hamster somatic cell hybrids.
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 MDM2 using anti-MDM2 antibody (PA1378-1).
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 50ug of sample under reducing conditions.
Lane 1: Human Caco-2 whole cell lysates.
After Electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a Nitrocellulose membrane at 150mA 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-MDM2 antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (Catalog # PA1378-1) 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 1:10000 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 MDM2 at approximately 90KD. The expected band size for MDM2 is at 55KD.

Western blot analysis of MDM2 using anti-MDM2 antibody (PA1378-1).
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.
After electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane at 150 mA for 50-90 minutes. Blocked the membrane with non-fat dry milk (5%) in TBS for 1.5 hour at RT. The membrane was incubated with rabbit anti-MDM2 antibody (PA1378-1) at 8µL in 6 mLs (not because it needed that concentration but because that was the size of my frozen aliquots) overnight at 4°C, then washed with TBS-0.1%Tween 3 times with 5 minutes each and probed with a Cell Signaling Technology's 7074s murine anti-rabbit conformation specific antibody at a dilution of 1:5000 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal is developed using an SuperSignal West Pico Plus with a BioRad imager. A specific band was detected for MDM2 at approximately 55 kDa. The expected band size for MDM2 is at 55 kDa.

"I've been looking at downstream products of AKT and mTOR transcriptional regulation. I tried several anti-MDM2 antibodies from other companies with either ambiguous or negative results (in Western blots of human cancer cell line lysates) and Boster's is the only one that gave me strong bands at the two expected sizes. I would recommend this product. I would absolutely buy it again."

Question
Does anti-MDM2 antibody PA1378-1 work on monkey WB with colon?
Verified Customer
Verified customer
Asked: 2019-08-20
Answer
Our lab technicians have not tested anti-MDM2 antibody PA1378-1 on monkey. You can run a BLAST between monkey and the immunogen sequence of anti-MDM2 antibody PA1378-1 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 monkey 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 monkey colon in WB, you can get your next antibody for free.

Question
Will PA1378-1 anti-MDM2 antibody work on parafin embedded sections? If so, which fixation method do you recommend we use (PFA, paraformaldehyde, other)?
M. Jones
Verified customer
Asked: 2018-05-23
Answer
You can see on the product datasheet, PA1378-1 anti-MDM2 antibody as been validated 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.

Question
I have a question about product PA1378-1, anti-MDM2 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?
B. Dhar
Verified customer
Asked: 2017-03-03
Answer
We do not advise 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 PA1378-1 anti-MDM2 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.

The anti-MDM2 antibody (PA1378-1) has not been validated for cross reactivity specifically with feline tissues, though there is a good chance of cross reactivity.
