Background of MLANA
MLANA (Melan-A, also known as MART1; MART-1), located on 9p24.1, is a Protein Coding gene. The gene produces a 13157 Da protein composed of 118 amino acids. MLANA is a hydrophobic transmembrane protein without glycosylation sites highly enriched in early melanosomes. MLANA is expressed in skin and retinae melanocytes and the majority of melanoma tumors, but it is absent from other tissues and tumors. Diseases such as Melanoma In Congenital Melanocytic Nevus and Angiomyolipoma are associated with MLANA. The related pathways of MLANA include NF-kappaB Signaling.
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 Melan-A/MLANA using anti-Melan-A/MLANA antibody (A02033-3).
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: mouse heart 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-Melan-A/MLANA antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (Catalog # A02033-3) 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 Melan-A/MLANA at approximately 13 kDa. The expected band size for Melan-A/MLANA is at 13 kDa.

Flow Cytometry analysis of HEL cells using anti-Melan-A/MLANA antibody (A02033-3).
Overlay histogram showing HEL cells stained with A02033-3 (Blue line). To facilitate intracellular staining, cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with permeabilization buffer. The cells were blocked with 10% normal goat serum. And then incubated with rabbit anti-Melan-A/MLANA Antibody (A02033-3, 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.
