Biological background
POLB (protein: Lysosome-associated membrane glycoprotein 2 (Lamp2)) is a commonly studied target in molecular and cellular biology. Functional context (as provided): Calcium-regulated non-lysosomal thiol-protease which catalyze limited proteolysis of substrates involved in cytoskeletal remodeling and signal transduction. Reported cellular localization context: Cytoplasm . Cell membrane . Translocates to the plasma membrane upon Ca (2+) binding. In granular keratinocytes and in lower corneocytes, colocalizes with FLG and FLG2 (PubMed:21531719). . Tissue expression notes (as provided): Ubiquitous.
Research relevance and current trends
- Research context keywords from the source record include: DNA/RNA,DNA Damage & Repair,DNA Synthesis,Epigenetics and Nuclear Signaling.
- 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.
- Immunohistochemistry (IHC): evaluate spatial distribution of target-positive staining in tissue architecture.
- Immunofluorescence/ICC (IF/ICC): visualize subcellular localization patterns and cell-to-cell heterogeneity.
- Immunoprecipitation (IP): enrich target complexes for downstream immunoblot or interaction analyses.
Workflow ideas (metafield): Validate POLB antibody specificity using KO/KD control samples (WB/IF/IHC as appropriate), Detect POLB expression by Western blot in cell or tissue lysates, Detect POLB in FFPE tissue sections by immunohistochemistry, Localize POLB by immunofluorescence/immunocytochemistry in cultured cells, Enrich POLB 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: 72 kDa; calculated MW: 81890 MW).
- Control concepts: include appropriate negative controls (e.g., isotype, KO/KD samples) and orthogonal validation when feasible.
