PCNA Antibody (PC10) is a mouse monoclonal IgG2a kappa light chain antibody. Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen (PCNA) is a critical nuclear protein involved in DNA replication and repair in eukaryotic cells. PCNA forms a ring structure that acts as a scaffold for recruiting proteins, supporting DNA polymerases during replication. PCNA plays key roles in DNA metabolism, chromatin remodeling, cell cycle regulation, and DNA repair pathways, ensuring high-fidelity DNA replication. PCNA is regulated by post-translational modifications, allowing dynamic response to DNA damage and maintenance of genomic integrity. Dysregulation of PCNA is linked to cancer, making PCNA an important biomarker for prognosis and a potential therapeutic target. PCNA monoclonal antibody (PC10) is used in various conjugated forms for IF and ELISA, providing clear nuclear staining during DNA replication. PCNA (PC10) antibody′s high specificity and sensitivity make this product useful for studying cell proliferation, DNA repair, and tumor growth, aiding in the development of therapeutic strategies for diseases related to abnormal cell proliferation.

does antibody m-IgGκ BP-HRP:(sc-516102) compatible to using as secondary antibody against Anti-PCNA Antibody (PC10): sc-56 for western blot

Asked by: Anonymous
Thank you for your question. Anti-PCNA Antibody (PC10) is a mouse monoclonal IgG2a κ PCNA antibody, so it is compatible with m-IgGκ BP-HRP:(sc-516102), which recognizes kappa light chain mouse IgG, IgA and IgM antibodies.

We are new to IHC. Thinking of using this antibody, PCNA Antibody: sc-56on our chicken samples. Wondering if there are any preferences on the conjugate for the secondary antibody, such as HRP, biotin etc. We don't need fluorescence

Asked by: SDas
Thank you for your question. This antibody has been previously cited for detection of PCNA in chicken samples. For IHC, you could use the unconjugated antibody, with an appropriate secondary antibody for detection, or the Biotin conjugated primary with an ABC Staining System, or the HRP conjugate for direct immunoperoxidase staining. Using the directly conjugated primary antibody can save you time and money on reagents. We do not have a preference for this particular antibody, and think you would be successful using either version of the antibody, depending on your preferences in your lab.
