hello:

I´m trying to identify a DNA binding protein by supershift assays. Anyone know a protocol to carry out this assay?, and concentration of antibody should I use?

thanks for your help

For supershift  you can add 0.5 to 1.0ug of antibody to get a final volume of 10-20uL to load the gel. T

here are a bunch of EMSA protocols listed in the protocols section. A good non-radioactive protocol is found here

Supershift Protocol

If you have access to Current Protocols this is a very descriptive methods paper
