| Immunogen | A synthesized peptide derived from human Proteasome 20S C2 The proteasome is a multicatalytic proteinase complex which is characterized by its ability to cleave peptides with Arg, Phe, Tyr, Leu, and Glu adjacent to the leaving group at neutral or slightly basic pH. The proteasome has an ATP-dependent proteolytic activity. |

Biological background
PSMA1 (protein: T-cell surface glycoprotein CD3 zeta chain) is a commonly studied target in molecular and cellular biology. Functional context (as provided): Ig alpha is the major immunoglobulin class in body secretions. It may serve both to defend against local infection and to prevent access of foreign antigens to the general immunologic system. Reported cellular localization context: Nucleus . Tissue expression notes (as provided): Brain.
Research relevance and current trends
- Research context keywords from the source record include: Cell Biology,Proteasome,Proteasome / Ubiquitin,Proteolysis/Ubiquitin.
- 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 PSMA1 antibody specificity using KO/KD control samples (WB/IF/IHC as appropriate), Detect PSMA1 expression by Western blot in cell or tissue lysates, Detect PSMA1 in FFPE tissue sections by immunohistochemistry, Localize PSMA1 by immunofluorescence/immunocytochemistry in cultured cells, Quantify PSMA1-positive cells by flow cytometry in single-cell suspensions, Enrich PSMA1 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: 50 kDa; calculated MW: 37655 MW).
- Control concepts: include appropriate negative controls (e.g., isotype, KO/KD samples) and orthogonal validation when feasible.
