WB: not tested yet
IP: not tested yet
ICC: not tested yet
IHC: not tested yet
IHC-P: 1 : 20 up to 1 : 40 gallery  

Western blot (WB); separation of proteins by PAGE and subsequent transfer to a membrane. Detection of target molecules is carried out with antibodies. Some antibodies require special sample preparation steps. For details, please refer to the “Remarks” section.

Immunoprecipitation (IP); Immunoisolation or pulldown of a target molecule using an antibody. For details and product specific hints, please refer to the ”Remarks” section.

Immunocytochemistry (ICC) on 4% PFA fixed cells. Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence. Some antibodies require special fixation methods. For details, please refer to the “Remarks” section.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC) on 4% PFA perfusion fixed tissue with 24h PFA post fixation. Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence or a chromogenic substrate. Some antibodies require special fixation methods or antigen retrieval steps. For details, please refer to the ”Remarks” section.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P) of formalin fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue (some antibodies require special antigen retrieval steps, please refer to the ”Remarks” section). Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence or a chromogenic substrate.

Background

Calreticulin (CALR) mutations have been identified as a major driver in myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). In contrast to JAK2 mutations that are mainly associated with polycythaemia vera (PV), CALR mutations are specifically associated with primary myelofibrosis (PMF) and essential thrombocythaemia (ET).

All known types of CALR mutations result in a novel C-terminus of the protein. This harbors a common epitope expressed in all kinds of CALR mutations. The CAL2 antibody is directed against this neoepitope. Therefore, it can be concluded that the CAL2 antibody is able to detect all CALR mutations.

It labels the megakaryocytes in myeloproliferative neoplasms (essential thrombocythaemia (ET) and primary myelofibrosis (PMF)) with CALR mutation and enables to distinguish them from polycythemia vera (PV), from CALR mutation negative ET and PMF and from reactive bone marrow.
