Product Overview
Clone ABEF-4 is a rabbit monoclonal antibody that recognizes ribonuclease 3 (gene DROSHA) in human samples and is validated for Western blot, IHC, ICC/IF and flow cytometry. The predicted molecular weight is 159.3 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 159 kDa.
Drosha is the nuclear RNase III enzyme that starts microRNA production. Together with DGCR8 in the Microprocessor complex, it cuts primary miRNA transcripts to release hairpin precursor miRNAs, which are exported and processed further by Dicer, so Drosha is central to studies of miRNA biogenesis and gene silencing.

Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human 293T cells, human HeLa cells, human HepG2 cells, human K562 cells.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Conditions in the example images (WB): 5–20% gradient SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, 30 µg lysate per lane, transfer to nitrocellulose membrane, blocking in 5% non-fat milk, primary antibody at 1:1000 overnight at 4 °C, HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at 1:5000, ECL detection.
Samples with confirmed staining (IHC): human stomach cancer tissue.
Recommended antigen retrieval: heat-mediated, in TE buffer (pH 9.0); citrate buffer (pH 6.0) can be used instead.
Conditions in the example images (IHC): heat-mediated antigen retrieval in EDTA buffer (pH 8.0).
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide based on the sequence of human drosha.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human. UniProt places ribonuclease 3 in the nucleus and cytoplasm. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Ubiquitous. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
