Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody targets josephin-2 (gene JOSD2) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot, IHC, flow cytometry and ELISA. The predicted molecular weight is 20.8 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 26 kDa.
Josephin-2 (JOSD2) is a small protein containing a Josephin domain, the catalytic domain also found in ataxin-3. In vitro it cleaves ubiquitin chains, preferring Lys63-linked chains over Lys48-linked ones, suggesting that it acts as a deubiquitinating enzyme; its cellular roles are still being defined.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.25–0.5 µg/mL (Human, Mouse, Rat) |
|---|---|
| IHC (paraffin sections) | 2–5 µg/mL (Human) |

| ELISA | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL |
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): human A549 cells, human PC-3 cells, human MCF-7 cells, rat liver tissue, mouse liver tissue.
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 0.5 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C, HRP-conjugated secondary antibody at 1:5000, ECL detection.
Samples with confirmed staining (IHC): human esophageal squamous carcinoma tissue, human lung cancer tissue, human thyroid papillary carcinoma 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).
Samples with a confirmed signal (flow cytometry): HEL cells.
