Caption: Each graph depicts the combined quantification of multiple images of the same transfected cells taken at 10X magnification. GFP- or BFP-positive cells were identified and the mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) of the far-red channel for each cell, representing Anti-Netrin-1 [IPI-NTN1.65] (Addgene #241895) labeling, was recorded. IPI-NTN1.65 labeling of human and mouse variants of each netrin family member is compared on the top and bottom rows. To test family-wide cross-reactivity, IPI-NTN1.65 was used at 0.1 µg/mL (1:10000 dilution).

Target Species
Human
Cell / Tissue Type
ExpiCHO
Additional Information
ExpiCHO cells were separately transfected with human NTN1, or human or mouse NTN3, or NTN4. Human NTNs were cotransfected with GFP and mouse NTNs were cotransfected with BFP (transfection controls).

Additional Information

Additional Information

GFP- or BFP- positive cells were identified via the neural network CellPose, then the mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) of the far-red channel for each cell, representing IPI-NTN1.65 labeling, was recorded. Each histogram displays the number of cells with MFIs ranging from below 100 (background fluorescence) to 16000 (saturation).

Controls

Positive control (not shown): Anti-V5 [IPI-SV5-Pk1] (Addgene #218107) used to confirm IF labeling efficacy (since construct expressing target also has a V5 tag).

Negative control (not shown): Rabbit IgG used to confirm transfected construct does not interact /produce signal with every antibody.

Result
Pass (The antibody worked under these conditions)
Describe Results
The antibody shows binding only to human Netrin 1.
