[Isolation, purification and antibody preparation of vimentin]
Abstract:
Vimentin was isolated and purified from pig lens with DEAE 52 and CM32 chromatography, which was identified by the following procedures: SDS-PAGE, analysis of amino acid composition, negative staining for electron microscopy and Western Blot. Antiserum of vimentin was prepared and its specificity was detected in normal and tumor tissues by immunohistochemical technique. Distribution of vimentin in 3T3 and L-929 cells was studied with immunofluorescence technique. The result showed that vimentin appeared as networks in the cytoplasm, and the antibody thus prepared might be used for basic research work and pathologic diagnosis.
