Biological background

LDHA (protein: Glycogen synthase kinase-3 beta (gsk3b)) is a commonly studied target in molecular and cellular biology. Functional context (as provided): Plays important roles in the production of 11-cis retinal and in visual pigment regeneration. The soluble form binds vitamin A (all-trans-retinol), making it available for LRAT processing to all-trans-retinyl ester. The membrane form, palmitoylated by LRAT, binds all-trans-retinyl esters, making them available for IMH (isomerohydrolase) processing to all-cis- retinol. The soluble form is regenerated by transferring its palmitoyl groups onto 11-cis-retinol, a reaction catalyzed by LRAT. The enzymatic activity is linearly dependent of the expression levels and membrane association. . Reported cellular localization context: Cytoplasm. Tissue expression notes (as provided): Retinal pigment epithelium specific. .

Research relevance and current trends

• Research context keywords from the source record include: Cancer,Cancer Metabolism,Carbohydrate Metabolism,Energy Metabolism,Energy Transfer Pathways,Metabolic Signaling Pathway,Metabolic Signaling Pathways,Metabolism,Metabolism Of Carbohydrates,Pathways and Processes,Signal Transduction,Tumor Biomarkers.
• 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.
• Flow cytometry: quantify target-positive populations and compare shifts in marker distributions.
• Immunoprecipitation (IP): enrich target complexes for downstream immunoblot or interaction analyses.

Workflow ideas (metafield): Validate LDHA antibody specificity using KO/KD control samples (WB/IF/IHC as appropriate), Detect LDHA expression by Western blot in cell or tissue lysates, Detect LDHA in FFPE tissue sections by immunohistochemistry, Localize LDHA by immunofluorescence/immunocytochemistry in cultured cells, Quantify LDHA-positive cells by flow cytometry in single-cell suspensions, Enrich LDHA 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: 95 kDa; calculated MW: 36689 MW).
• Control concepts: include appropriate negative controls (e.g., isotype, KO/KD samples) and orthogonal validation when feasible.
