Product number: PA1-216 - Provider product page
Provider: Invitrogen Antibodies
Product name: THRA Polyclonal Antibody
Antibody type: Polyclonal
Antigen: Synthetic peptide
Description: PA1-216 detects the thyroid hormone receptor alpha 2 from human and mouse samples. PA1-216 has been successfully used in Western blot, ICC/IF and immunohistochemistry (paraffin) procedures. By Western blot, this antibody detects bands at ~58 kDa representing Tra2 in mouse tissue. This antibody also detects a ~43 kDa protein which is believed to be non-specific. The PA1-216 immunizing peptide corresponds to amino acid residues 455-469 from rat thyroid hormone receptor alpha 2.
Reactivity: Human, Mouse
Host: Rabbit
Isotype: IgG
Vial size: 200 µg
Concentration: 1 mg/mL
Storage: -20° C, Avoid Freeze/Thaw Cycles

Experimental details: Immunofluorescent analysis of Thyroid Hormone Receptor alpha-2 (green) showing staining in the nucleus and cytoplasm of A431 cells (right) compared to a negative control without primary antibody (left). Formalin-fixed cells were permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 in TBS for 5-10 minutes and blocked with 3% BSA-PBS for 30 minutes at room temperature. Cells were probed with a Thyroid Hormone Receptor alpha-2 polyclonal antibody (Product # PA1-216) in 3% BSA-PBS at a dilution of 1:100 and incubated overnight at 4 ºC in a humidified chamber. Cells were washed with PBST and incubated with a DyLight-conjugated secondary antibody in PBS at room temperature in the dark. F-actin (red) was stained with a fluorescent red phalloidin and nuclei (blue) were stained with Hoechst or DAPI. Images were taken at a magnification of 60x.

Experimental details: Immunohistochemistry analysis of Thyroid Hormone Receptor alpha-2 showing positive staining in the cytoplasm and nucleus of paraffin-treated Human thyroid tissue (right) compared with a negative control in the absence of primary antibody (left). To expose target proteins, antigen retrieval method was performed using 10mM sodium citrate (pH 6.0) microwaved for 8-15 min. Following antigen retrieval, tissues were blocked in 3% H2O2-methanol for 15 min at room temperature, washed with ddH2O and PBS, and then probed with a Thyroid Hormone Receptor alpha-2 polyclonal antibody (Product # PA1-216) diluted by 3% BSA-PBS at a dilution of 1:200 overnight at 4°C in a humidified chamber. Tissues were washed extensively PBST and detection was performed using an HRP-conjugated secondary antibody followed by colorimetric detection using a DAB kit. Tissues were counterstained with hematoxylin and dehydrated with ethanol and xylene to prep for mounting.
