- Immunofluorescence analysis of PMEL was performed using 70% confluent log phase SK-MEL-5 cells. The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 10 minutes, permeabilized with 0.1% Triton™ X-100 for 15 minutes, and blocked with 2% BSA for 45 minutes at room temperature. The cells were labeled with PMEL Monoclonal Antibody (HMB45) (Product # MA1-34759) at 5 µg/mL in 0.1% BSA, incubated at 4 degree celsius overnight and then labeled with Goat anti-Mouse IgG (H+L) Highly Cross-Adsorbed Secondary Antibody, Alexa Fluor Plus 488 (Product # A32723), (1:2000), for 45 minutes at room temperature (Panel a: Green). Nuclei (Panel b: Blue) were stained with ProLong™ Diamond Antifade Mountant with DAPI (Product # P36962). F-actin (Panel c: Red) was stained with Rhodamine Phalloidin (Product # R415, 1:300). Panel d represents the merged image showing cytoplasmic(vesicles) localization. Panel e represents A-375 cells having no expression of PMEL. Panel f represents control cells with no primary antibody to assess background. The images were captured at 60X magnification.
