I am doing non-radioactive EMSA with biotinylated oligo. My oligo is GC-rich in sequence. I used to get retarded band in my gel which was successfully competed by cold chase. Other experiments suggested the binding of Sp1/Sp3 to that region of oligo. But i am not getting any supershift in my gel with Sp1/Sp3 antibody. Shifted bands are very heavy and in most of the case stucks near the well. what modification i should do in my experiment. I am following Pierce EMSA kit manuals for my experiment. Any specific criteria for selecting antibodies for their use for supershift. When to add antibody in binding mixture of oligo and nuclear lysate. If anyone has done the supershift with Sp1/Sp3 earlier then please share the protocol and any troubleshoots.
