Background of SLC16A4
Monocarboxylate transporter 5, also called Solute carrier family 16 member 4 or MCT4, is a protein that in humans is encodes by the SLC16A4 gene. This gene is mapped to 1p13.3. It acts as the proton-linked monocarboxylate transporter. This gene catalyzes the rapid transport across the plasma membrane of many monocarboxylates such as lactate, pyruvate, branched-chain oxo acids derived from leucine, valine and isoleucine, and the ketone bodies acetoacetate, beta-hydroxybutyrate and acetate.
Antibody Validation

Western blot analysis of SLC16A4 using anti-SLC16A4 antibody (PA2189).
Electrophoresis was performed on a 10% 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 A549 whole cell lysates,
Lane 2: rat kidney tissue lysates,
Lane 3: rat NRK whole cell lysates,
Lane 4: mouse kidney 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-SLC16A4 antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (PA2189) 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 SLC16A4 at approximately 54 kDa. The expected band size for SLC16A4 is at 54 kDa.

IHC analysis of SLC16A4 using anti-SLC16A4 antibody (PA2189).
SLC16A4 was detected in a paraffin-embedded section of human kidney tissue. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed in EDTA buffer (pH 8.0, epitope retrieval solution). The tissue section was blocked with 10% goat serum. The tissue section was then incubated with 2 μg/ml rabbit anti-SLC16A4 Antibody (PA2189) overnight at 4°C. Peroxidase Conjugated Goat Anti-rabbit IgG was used as secondary antibody and incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C. The tissue section was developed using HRP Conjugated Rabbit IgG Super Vision Assay Kit (Catalog # SV0002) with DAB as the chromogen.

IF analysis of SLC16A4 using anti-SLC16A4 antibody (PA2189).
SLC16A4 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-SLC16A4 Antibody (PA2189) overnight at 4°C. Fluoro488 Conjugated Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG (BA1127) 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.

Asked: 2019-12-09
Answer
The immunogen of PA2189 anti-SLC16A4 antibody is A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the N-terminus of human SLC16A4(134-148aa VVTTKYFKKRLALST), different from the related rat and mouse sequences by two amino acids. Could you tell me which isotype you are interested in so I can help see if the immunogen is part of this isotype?

Question
Can you help my question with product PA2189, anti-SLC16A4 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?
Verified Customer
Verified customer
Asked: 2019-05-30
Answer
We suggest not 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 PA2189 anti-SLC16A4 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.

Asked: 2016-01-26
Answer
The anti-SLC16A4 antibody (PA2189) has not been tested for cross reactivity specifically with bovine 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 bovine you can get your next antibody for free. Please contact me if I can help you with anything.

Question
Will anti-SLC16A4 antibody PA2189 work on monkey WB with placenta substantia nigra?
A. Zhang
Verified customer
Asked: 2015-02-09
Answer
Our lab technicians have not validated anti-SLC16A4 antibody PA2189 on monkey. You can run a BLAST between monkey and the immunogen sequence of anti-SLC16A4 antibody PA2189 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 placenta substantia nigra in WB, you can get your next antibody for free.
