Biological background
POSTN (protein: Glycogen synthase kinase-3 beta (gsk3b)) is a commonly studied target in molecular and cellular biology. Functional context (as provided): Required for initiation of chromosomal DNA replication. Reported cellular localization context: Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Tissue expression notes (as provided): Widely expressed, highest levels are found in adult testis and thymus and in fetal liver.
Research relevance and current trends
- Research context keywords from the source record include: Cancer,Cardiogenesis,Cardiovascular,Cell Adhesion Molecules,Cell Type Markers,Cytoskeleton/ECM,Extracellular Matrix,Invasion/Microenvironment,Signal Transduction,Structures,Tags & Cell Markers,Vascular Inflammation.
- 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.
- Flow cytometry: quantify target-positive populations and compare shifts in marker distributions.
Workflow ideas (metafield): Validate POSTN antibody specificity using KO/KD control samples (WB/IF/IHC as appropriate), Detect POSTN expression by Western blot in cell or tissue lysates, Quantify POSTN-positive cells by flow cytometry in single-cell suspensions
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: 37 kDa; calculated MW: 65569 MW).
- Control concepts: include appropriate negative controls (e.g., isotype, KO/KD samples) and orthogonal validation when feasible.
Additional product details (from the source record)
- Molecular weight (observed): 37 kDa
- Cellular localization (provided): Cytoplasm. Nucleus.
- Tissue details (provided): Widely expressed, highest levels are found in adult testis and thymus and in fetal liver.
