Figure 1: Immunoblot analysis of beta-tubulin protein glutamylation using anti-beta-Tubulin, mAb (AXO45) (Prod. No. AG-20B-0085). Method: HEK-293T cells are grown in standard culture conditions, transfected with plasmids expressing the different glutamylases, TTLL4 and TTLL6 and are run on a 10% SDS-PAGE (specific protocol to separate alpha- and beta-tubulin (Magiera & Janke, 2013)). The proteins are transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane and detected by standard immunoblot protocol using the AXO45 (1:1000) in PBS containing 0.1% Tween-20 for washing steps and 2.5% fat free milk for antibody incubation. In all the cell extracts, AXO45 specifically detects beta-tubulin, with no cross-reactivity to alpha-tubulin. Glutamylation added by either TTLL4 or TTLL6 appears to not affect this detection.

- Scientific DescriptionMonoclonal Antibody. Detects almost all isotypes of beta-tubulin specifically in cells and tissues of mouse, human and ciliates. Applications: ICC, IHC, IP and WB. Clone: AXO45. Isotype: Mouse IgG1. The beta-tubulin monoclonal antibody (AXO45) was developed by isolating the cilia from unicellular multiciliated Paramecium and purifying the core microtubule-based structures of the cilia, the axonemes. These axonemes were electrophoresed on a SDS-PAGE and the tubulin band was used as an antigen to develop monoclonal antibodies targeting both alpha- and beta-tubulin (A.M. Callen, et al.; 1994). The antibody AXO45 recognizes the C-terminal region between residues 257 and 442 of beta-tubulin. Although the antibody was raised against the beta-tubulin found in cilia, it is able to recognize beta-tubulin of all microtubule networks, indicating that it can potentially recognize different isotypes of beta-tubulin found in mammals. - The beta-tubulin monoclonal antibody (AXO45) was developed by isolating the cilia from unicellular multiciliated Paramecium and purifying the core microtubule-based structures of the cilia, the axonemes.
