Biological background
RAD23A (protein: T-cell surface glycoprotein CD3 zeta chain) is a commonly studied target in molecular and cellular biology. Functional context (as provided): CaM-kinase II (CAMK2) is a prominent kinase in the central nervous system that may function in long-term potentiation and neurotransmitter release. Member of the NMDAR signaling complex in excitatory synapses it may regulate NMDAR-dependent potentiation of the AMPAR and synaptic plasticity (By similarity). Phosphorylates transcription factor FOXO3 on 'Ser-298' (PubMed:23805378). Activates FOXO3 transcriptional activity (By similarity). . Reported cellular localization context: Cell junction, synapse, presynaptic cell membrane . Cell junction, synapse . Postsynaptic lipid rafts. . Tissue expression notes (as provided): Expressed in brain in the thalamus, in fetal and adult lung and in placenta. .
Research relevance and current trends
- Research context keywords from the source record include: Calcium Signaling,Calmodulin Pathway,Cardiovascular,Hypertrophy,Neuroscience,Neurotransmission,Protein Phosphorylation,Ser/Thr Kinases,Signal Transduction,Signaling Pathway.
- 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 RAD23A antibody specificity using KO/KD control samples (WB/IF/IHC as appropriate), Detect RAD23A expression by Western blot in cell or tissue lysates, Quantify RAD23A-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: 60 kDa; calculated MW: 54088 MW).
- Control concepts: include appropriate negative controls (e.g., isotype, KO/KD samples) and orthogonal validation when feasible.
