Rab 2 Antibody (A-8) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 kappa light chain antibody that detects the Rab 2 protein of mouse, rat, and human origin by western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), immunofluorescence (IF), immunohistochemistry, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Rab 2 Antibody (A-8) is available in both non-conjugated and various conjugated forms, including agarose, horseradish peroxidase (HRP), phycoerythrin (PE), fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), and multiple Alexa Fluor® conjugates. Rab 2, also known as Ras-related protein Rab-2A or RAB2A, is a member of the small Rab family and the GTPase superfamily, playing a crucial role in the transport of proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi complex. This transport process is vital for proper cellular activities, ensuring newly synthesized proteins are correctly processed and delivered to their destinations, which maintains cellular homeostasis and facilitates communication between organelles. Rab 2 interacts with various effector proteins to regulate vesicle trafficking, making Rab 2 essential in both biosynthetic and endocytic processes.

I am using Rab 2 (A-8): sc-133081 monoclonal antibody to stain paraffin embedded tissue. Do you recommend antigen retrieval when using this antibody?

Asked by: Professor Griffin
We recommend performing antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH 6) and heat. The full protocol can be found here: https://www.scbt.com/scbt/resources/protocols/immunoperoxidase-staining
