Hi where are you from

Amount of probe depends on your experiment. We always determine how much of which antibody we have to use when a new stock arrives.
Apart from this, is it intracellular or extracellular, do you have to fix cells or not, what colors will you be using?

You might try following a general Western blot protocol (e.g., wash. block, stain, etc.)
