The identification of high-preforming antibodies for Ubiquilin-2 for use in Western Blot, immunoprecipitation, and immunofluorescence.

Ubiquilin-2, a member of the ubiquilin protein family, plays a role in the regulation of various protein degradation pathways, and is mutated in some neurodegenerative diseases. Well-characterized anti-Ubiquilin-2 antibodies would advance reproducible research for Ubiquilin-2 and in turn, benefit the scientific community. In this study, we characterized ten Ubiquilin-2 commercial antibodies for Western Blot, immunoprecipitation, and immunofluorescence using a standardized experimental protocol based on comparing read-outs in knockout cell lines and isogenic parental controls. We identified many high-performing antibodies and encourage readers to use this report as a guide to select the most appropriate antibody for their specific needs.
