Biological background
FGF7 (protein: Lysosome-associated membrane glycoprotein 2 (Lamp2)) is a commonly studied target in molecular and cellular biology. Functional context (as provided): Central component of cohesin, a complex required for chromosome cohesion during the cell cycle. The cohesin complex may form a large proteinaceous ring within which sister chromatids can be trapped. At anaphase, the complex is cleaved and dissociates from chromatin, allowing sister chromatids to segregate. Cohesion is coupled to DNA replication and is involved in DNA repair. The cohesin complex plays also an important role in spindle pole assembly during mitosis and in chromosomes movement. . Reported cellular localization context: Nucleus. Chromosome. Chromosome, centromere. Associates with chromatin. Before prophase it is scattered along chromosome arms. During prophase, most of cohesin complexes dissociate from chromatin probably because of phosphorylation by PLK, except at centromeres, where cohesin complexes remain. At anaphase, the RAD21 subunit of the cohesin complex is cleaved, leading to the dissociation of the complex from chromosomes, allowing chromosome separation. The phosphorylated form at Ser- 1083 is preferentially associated with unsynapsed chromosomal regions (By similarity). . Tissue expression notes (as provided): Widely expressed with highest levels in muscle, heart, placenta and spinal cord.
Research relevance and current trends
- Research context keywords from the source record include: Cancer,Cell Biology,Cell Cycle,Cell Division,2339,Chromosome Structure,DNA/RNA,DNA Damage & Repair,DNA Damage Response,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.
Workflow ideas (metafield): Validate FGF7 antibody specificity using KO/KD control samples (WB/IF/IHC as appropriate), Detect FGF7 expression by Western blot in cell or tissue lysates, Compare relative FGF7 levels across experimental conditions (dose/time-course) using antibody-based readouts
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: 28 kDa; calculated MW: 141542 MW).
- Control concepts: include appropriate negative controls (e.g., isotype, KO/KD samples) and orthogonal validation when feasible.
