Caption: A) Immunofluorescence (IF) of ExpiCHO cells transfected with V5-tagged human and mouse SEMA3E. Human SEMA3E was co-transfected with GFP (human transfection control) and mouse SEMA3E was co-transfected with BFP (mouse transfection control). Cells were transfected separately and mixed for labeling and imaging. Cells were labeled with Anti-SEMA3E [IPI-mSEM3E.36] (Addgene #254649)and imaged for GFP (green), BFP (blue), and Anti-SEMA3E [IPI-mSEM3E.36] (magenta) at 40x magnification. Scale bar: 20 μm. B) Combined quantification of multiple images of the same transfected cells taken at 10x magnification. Anti-SEMA3E [IPI-mSEM3E.36] labeling of human (left) and mouse (right) SEMA3E is shown in the top row, and compared to a positive (left) and negative (right) control in the bottom row. For both panels, Anti-SEMA3E [IPI-mSEM3E.36] was used at a 1 µg/mL (1:1,000 dilution).

Additional Information

Additional Information

Confocal images taken at 40x magnification on an ImageXpress confocal HT.ai microscope.

For quantitative data, 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 Anti-SEMA3E [IPI-mSEM3E.36] labeling, was recorded. Each histogram displays the number of cells with MFIs ranging from below 100 (background fluorescence) to 20000 (saturation).

Controls

Positive control: Anti-V5 [IPI-SV5-Pk1] (Addgene #218107) used to confirm IF labeling efficacy (since construct expressing target also has a V5 tag.)

Negative control: Rabbit IgG used to confirm lack of nonspecific binding to the sample.

Result
Pass (The antibody worked under these conditions)
Describe Results
