Key elements and design rationale
- Antibody format: Mouse Monoclonal Mouse IgG1
- Clone number: Clone: 5A10
- Immunogen / epitope context: A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the N-terminus of human Emerin, different from the related mouse sequence by eight amino acids, and from the related rat sequence by nine amino acids.
- Molecular weight context: reported MW: 34 kDa; calculated MW: nan
- Reactivity: Human
- Applications: Flow Cytometry, IHC, ICC, WB
As a monoclonal antibody, the reagent targets a defined epitope, supporting consistency across experiments; epitope masking by PTMs or conformational changes can affect signal.
Biological background
emerin. APOBEC3G (apolipoprotein B mRNA editing enzyme, catalytic polypeptide-like 3G) is a human enzyme encoded by the APOBEC3G gene. This gene is a member of the cytidine deaminase gene family. It is one of seven related genes or pseudogenes found in a cluster, thought to result from gene duplication, on chromosome 22. Members of the cluster encode proteins that are structurally and functionally related to the C to U RNA-editing cytidine deaminase APOBEC1. It is thought that the proteins may be RNA editing enzymes and have roles in growth or cell cycle control. The protein encoded by this gene has been found to be a specific inhibitor of human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) infectivity. Functional note: Stabilizes and promotes the formation of a nuclear actin cortical network. Stimulates actin polymerization in vitro by binding and stabilizing the pointed end of growing filaments. Inhibits beta-catenin activity by preventing its accumulation in the nucleus. Acts by influencing the nuclear accumulation of beta- catenin through a CRM1-dependent export pathway. Links centrosomes to the nuclear envelope via a microtubule association. EMD and BAF are cooperative cofactors of HIV-1 infection. Association of EMD with the viral DNA requires the presence of BAF and viral integrase. The association of viral DNA with chromatin requires the presence of BAF and EMD. Required for proper localization of non-farnesylated prelamin-A/C. Reported localization: Nucleus inner membrane Expression/tissue context: Skeletal muscle, heart, colon, testis, ovary and pancreas.
Research relevance and current trends
- Biochemicals: Researchers commonly examine how EMD relates to this theme using model systems and orthogonal readouts.
- Chemical Type: Researchers commonly examine how EMD relates to this theme using model systems and orthogonal readouts.
- Neuroscience: Researchers commonly examine how EMD relates to this theme using model systems and orthogonal readouts.
Common research applications
- Western blotting: compare relative EMD levels across conditions; band patterns may reflect isoforms and processing.
- IHC/IHC-F: assess spatial distribution of EMD across tissue regions and cell types using matched controls.
- IF/ICC: evaluate subcellular localization and co-localization patterns; signal can depend on fixation/permeabilization and epitope accessibility.
- Flow cytometry: quantify target-positive populations and shifts in expression; gating strategy and background staining controls are essential.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Specificity notes: No cross reactivity with other proteins.
- Cross-reactivity: No cross-reactivity with other proteins.
- Isoforms and PTMs: Apparent size and signal patterns can differ across splice isoforms, proteolytic processing, and post-translational modifications.
- Controls: Include an isotype control (as relevant), no-primary control for imaging, and orthogonal validation such as KD/KO samples when available.
