Biological background
CHRNA4 (protein: Lysosome-associated membrane glycoprotein 2 (Lamp2)) is a commonly studied target in molecular and cellular biology. Functional context (as provided): Catalyzes the cross-linking of proteins and the conjugation of polyamines to proteins. Reported cellular localization context: Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix . Tissue expression notes (as provided): Expressed at high levels in adult kidney, skeletal and placenta tissues and at very low levels in adult heart, lung and brain tissues. .
Research relevance and current trends
- Research context keywords from the source record include: Amino Acid Metabolism,Amino Acids,Apoptosis,Associated Proteins,Autoimmune,Calcium Binding Proteins,Calcium Signaling,Cancer,Cell Biology,Immune System Diseases,Immunology,Intracellular,Metabolic Signaling Pathways,Metabolism,Pathways and Processes,Signal Transduction,Signaling Pathway.
- Current studies often focus on connecting target abundance/localization to pathway perturbations across models, tissues, and cell states.
- Quantitative and multiplexed assays (e.g., imaging + immunoblot panels) are commonly used to compare phenotypes across conditions and time-courses.
Common research applications
- Western blotting (WB): assess relative target abundance across samples, treatments, or time-points.
- Immunoprecipitation (IP): enrich target complexes for downstream immunoblot or interaction analyses.
Workflow ideas (metafield): Validate CHRNA4 antibody specificity using KO/KD control samples (WB/IF/IHC as appropriate), Detect CHRNA4 expression by Western blot in cell or tissue lysates, Enrich CHRNA4 by immunoprecipitation from lysates for downstream analysis
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Consider isoforms and post-translational modifications (PTMs) that may shift apparent molecular weight or epitope accessibility.
- Apparent molecular weight may vary by sample type and processing (observed MW: 70 kDa; calculated MW: 77329 MW).
- Control concepts: include appropriate negative controls (e.g., isotype, KO/KD samples) and orthogonal validation when feasible.
