Immunohistochemistry (IHC) of anti-LMNB2 antibody
Immunohistochemical analysis of Lamin B2 staining in rat brain formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue section. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH 6.0). The section was then incubated with the antibody at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX.

Immunofluorescence (IF) of anti-LMNB2 antibody
Immunofluorescent analysis of Lamin B2 staining in U2OS cells. Formalin-fixed cells were permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 in TBS for 5-10 minutes and blocked with 3% BSA-PBS for 30 minutes at room temperature. Cells were probed with the primary antibody in 3% BSA-PBS and incubated overnight at 4 °C in a humidified chamber. Cells were washed with PBST and incubated with a DyLight 594-conjugated secondary antibody (red) in PBS at room temperature in the dark.

NCBI Summary for LMNB2
This gene encodes a B type nuclear lamin. The nuclear lamina consists of a two-dimensional matrix of proteins located next to the inner nuclear membrane. The lamin family of proteins make up the matrix and are highly conserved in evolution. During mitosis, the lamina matrix is reversibly disassembled as the lamin proteins are phosphorylated. Lamin proteins are thought to be involved in nuclear stability, chromatin structure and gene expression. Vertebrate lamins consist of two types, A and B. Mutations in this gene are associated with acquired partial lipodystrophy. [provided by RefSeq, May 2012]
UniProt Comments for LMNB2
Lamin B2: nuclear lamins are intermediate filament proteins that constitute the lattice-like matrix at the inner face of the nuclear membrane that underlies the nuclear envelop. The lamins, highly conserved throughout evolution, are encoded by three genes in the human: LMNA, LMNB1, and LMNB2. The A-type lamins (lamin A/C) are developmentally regulated and are generally expressed in differentiated cells. The anchoring of chromatin to the nuclear lamina is involved in the control of gene expression and in DNA replication and repair. During mitosis, the nuclear lamina is reversibly disassembled as the lamin proteins are phosphorylated. B-type lamins are phosphorylated within minutes of engaging the IgM surface receptor of resting splenic B cells. Lamin B2 may be lost during the follicle centre stage of B-cell differentiation in humans. Nuclear lamins are cleaved by caspases during apoptosis.
