Application Notes
Each vial of cell lysate contains 100ug of total protein which should be sufficient for 20-50 reactions. Depending on over-expression level, antibody affinity and detection system, some lysates can go as low as 0.1 ug per load. We recommend starting with 5ug of cell lysate. Add an equal amount of cell lysate and 2X SDS Sample buffer and boil the SDS samples for 10 minutes before loading.
TMW
Disclaimer note: The observed molecular weight of the protein may vary from the listed predicted molecular weight due to post translational modifications, post translation cleavages, relative charges, and other experimental factors.

Background: ABCG8
Transporter genes are involved in the regulation of the amount of dietary cholesterol retained in the body. Specifically, ABCG8 is responsible for the selective transport of dietary cholesterol in/out of the enterocytes and in the selective liver sterol excretion into bile. ABCG8 also cooperates with ABCG5 to limit intestinal absorption and promote biliary excretion of sterols.
ABCG8 is highly expressed in the liver and intestine. Mutated forms of ABCG8 lead to sterol accumulation and can cause atherosclerosis or sitosterolemia, a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by hyperabsorption of sterols and the inability to excrete sterols into bile.
ABCG8 antibodies are useful tools for cholesterol absorbtion/sectretion studies and are fundamental to the understanding of certian liver functions.

HEK293T cells in 10-cm dishes were transiently transfected with a non-lipid polymer transfection reagent specially designed and manufactured for large volume DNA transfection. Transfected cells were cultured for 48hrs before collection. The cells were lysed in modified RIPA buffer (25mM Tris-HCl pH7.6, 150mM NaCl, 1% NP-40, 1mM EDTA, 1xProteinase inhibitor cocktail mix, 1mM PMSF and 1mM Na3VO4, and then centrifuged to clarify the lysate. Protein concentration was measured by BCA protein assay kit.
