A guide to selecting high-performing antibodies for Netrin-1 (UniProt ID: O95631) for use in western blot and immunoprecipitation

<ns5:p>Netrin-1 is a secreted protein that regulates cell migration and survival, controlling axonal guidance during development, morphogenesis, apoptosis, angiogenesis, inflammation and cancer progression. Here we have characterized fourteen Netrin-1 commercial antibodies for western blot and immunoprecipitation using a standardized experimental protocol based on comparing read-outs in knockout cell lines and isogenic parental controls. These studies are part of a larger, collaborative initiative seeking to address antibody reproducibility issues by characterizing commercially available antibodies for human proteins and publishing the results openly as a resource for the scientific community. While the use of antibodies and protocols vary between laboratories, we encourage readers to use this report as a guide to select the most appropriate antibodies for their specific needs.</ns5:p>
