Biological background
OXTR (protein: Glycogen synthase kinase-3 beta (gsk3b)) is a commonly studied target in molecular and cellular biology. Functional context (as provided): Essential component of the mitotic checkpoint. Required for normal mitosis progression. The mitotic checkpoint delays anaphase until all chromosomes are properly attached to the mitotic spindle. One of its checkpoint functions is to inhibit the activity of the anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) by blocking the binding of CDC20 to APC/C, independently of its kinase activity. The other is to monitor kinetochore activities that depend on the kinetochore motor CENPE. Required for kinetochore localization of CENPE. Negatively regulates PLK1 activity in interphase cells and suppresses centrosome amplification. Also implicated in triggering apoptosis in polyploid cells that exit aberrantly from mitotic arrest. May play a role for tumor suppression. . Reported cellular localization context: Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Chromosome, centromere, kinetochore. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome. Cytoplasmic in interphase cells. Associates with the kinetochores in early prophase. Kinetochore localization requires BUB1, PLK1 and CASC5. Tissue expression notes (as provided): Highly expressed in thymus followed by spleen. Preferentially expressed in tissues with a high mitotic index. .
Research relevance and current trends
- Research context keywords from the source record include: Cancer,Cell Biology,Cell Cycle,Cell Division,Epigenetics and Nuclear Signaling,Kinases/Phosphatases,Spindle.
- 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.
Workflow ideas (metafield): Validate OXTR antibody specificity using KO/KD control samples (WB/IF/IHC as appropriate), Detect OXTR expression by Western blot in cell or tissue lysates, Detect OXTR in FFPE tissue sections by immunohistochemistry
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: 43 kDa; calculated MW: 119545 MW).
- Control concepts: include appropriate negative controls (e.g., isotype, KO/KD samples) and orthogonal validation when feasible.
