Western blot using Rocklands Protein G purified anti-Hsc70 (Hsp73) antibody shows detection of Hsc70 (Hsp73) in whole cell lysates from heat shocked HeLa cells. The band marked by the double arrowheads corresponds to Hsc70 (Hsp73) at an approximate molecular weight of 72/73 kDa. The primary antibody was used at a 1:1,000 dilution. |
