Characterization of the sensitivity and specificity of antisera against the human GLP-1R. Baby hamster kidney cells were transiently transfected with the vector pcDNA3.1 alone (lane 1) or with a human Glp1r cDNA tagged at the C-terminus with green fluorescent protein (GFP) cloned into pcDNA3.1 (lane 2). Whole-cell extracts were prepared 48 h after transfection and analyzed by immunoblotting with the indicated commercial GLP-1R antibodies or with a rabbit polyclonal antibody against GFP (Abcam ab6556). Molecular mass standards are indicated on the right. Both the anti-GLP-1R antibody Novus1940002 and the anti-GFP antibody detected similar immunoreactive proteins of ∼68 and ∼87 kDa, likely representing species of the GLP-1R-GFP fusion protein that were glycosylated differently.
