Background of MFAP1

Microfibrillar-associated protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MFAP1 gene. Microfibrils are an important component of the extracellular matrix of many tissues and can either associate with or without elastin. Several microfibril associated proteins (MFAPs) have been cloned, including MFAP1, MFAP3 and MFAP4. The MFAP1 and MFAP3 genes are localized near the fibrillin genes FBN1 and FBN2, respectively. Mutations in FBN1 are linked to Marfan syndrome. Mutations in FBN2 have been linked to congenital contractural arachnodactyly. This suggests roles for MFAP1 and MFAP3 in heritable diseases affecting microfibrils. Deletion of MFAP4 was found in 30 of 31 patients with Smith-Magenis syndrome (SMS), a clinically recognizable multiple congenital anomaly/mental retardation syndrome

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 MFAP1 using anti-MFAP1 antibody (A09850-1).
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 HEL whole cell lysates,
Lane 2: human Hela whole cell lysates,
Lane 3: human K562 whole cell lysates,
Lane 4: mouse brain 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-MFAP1 antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (Catalog # A09850-1) 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 MFAP1 at approximately 50 kDa. The expected band size for MFAP1 is at 50 kDa.

Figure 2. IF analysis of MFAP1 using anti-MFAP1 antibody (A09850-1) and anti-Beta Tubulin antibody (M01857-3).
MFAP1 was detected in immunocytochemical section of U2OS cell. 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-MFAP1 Antibody (A09850-1) and mouse anti-Beta Tubulin antibody (M01857-3) overnight at 4°C. DyLight®488 Conjugated Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG (BA1127) and Cy3 Conjugated Goat Anti-Mouse IgG (BA1031) were used as secondary antibody at 1:500 dilution and incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C. Visualize using a fluorescence microscope and filter sets appropriate for the label used.

Figure 3. Flow Cytometry analysis of A431 cells using anti-MFAP1 antibody (A09850-1).
Overlay histogram showing A431 cells stained with A09850-1 (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-MFAP1 Antibody (A09850-1, 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.
