anti-Vimentin mouse monoclonal, VIM 3B4 50 μg/ml, monoclonal, affinity purified

The antibody is highly specific for the intermediate filament protein vimentin which is present in all cells of mesenchymal origin. VIM 3B4 has turned out to be the most avid mab to vimentin.

Polypeptide reacting: 57 kDa intermediate filament protein (vimentin) of mesenchymal cells.

Tumors specifically detected: sarcoma (including myosarcoma), lymphoma, melanoma.

The binding region of monoclonal antibody VIM3B4 has been characterized by Bohn et al.(1992). According to these authors, the epitope has been localized on the alpha-helical part of vimentin (rod domain coil 2). Due to an aa substitution at position of aa 353 in murine vimentin (that could explain for the weak cross-reaction of the antibody with murine vimentin) they were able to narrow down the binding region around position 353. These findings were confirmed by truncation mutagenesis experiments using human vimentin (Rogers et al., 1995).

Tested cultured cell lines: fibroblasts (SV-80).

Western blot analysis of HeLa lysate with anti-Vimentin antibody. Western blot analysis was performed on 10 μg wild type (WT) and 10 μg Vimentin knockout (KO) HeLa lysate. The PVDF membrane was blocked with 5% milk in PBST (PBS + 0.1% Tween 20) for 1 h at RT. The primary antibody anti-Vimentin mouse monoclonal, VIM 3B4 (Cat. No. 690013) was diluted in blocking buffer (antibody concentration 33 ng/ml) and incubated for 1 h at RT. The secondary antibody anti-mouse IgG, HRP conjugate was also diluted in blocking buffer (antibody concentration 200 ng/ml) and incubated for 1 h at RT. The bands were visualized by chemiluminescent detection using Pierce™ ECL Western Blotting Substrate.
