Biological background
Biological context: Multifunctional transcription factor with different regions mediating its different effects. Acts by binding (via its C-terminal domain) to sequences related to the consensus octamer motif 5'-ATGCAAAT-3' in the regulatory regions of its target genes. Regulates the expression of specific genes involved in differentiation and survival within a subset of neuronal lineages. It has been shown that activation of some of these genes requires its N-terminal domain, maybe through a neuronal-specific cofactor. Ativates BCL2 expression and protects neuronal cells from apoptosis (via the N-terminal domain). Induces neuronal process outgrowth and the coordinate expression of genes encoding synaptic proteins. Exerts its major developmental effects in somatosensory neurons and in brainstem nuclei involved in motor control. Stimulates the binding affinity of the nuclear estrogene receptor ESR1 to DNA estrogen response element (ERE), and hence modulates ESR1-induced transcriptional activity. May positively regulate POU4F2 and POU4F3. Regulates dorsal root ganglion sensory neuron specification and axonal projection into the spinal cord. Plays a role in TNFSF11-mediated terminal osteoclast differentiation. Negatively regulates its own expression interacting ly with a highly conserved autoregulatory domain surrounding the transcription initiation site.
Expression and localization notes: cellular localization: Nucleus., tissue context: Expressed in the brain and the retina. Present in the developing brain, spinal cord and eye..
Common research applications
- Western blotting (WB): Compare SH3GL2 levels across samples and conditions using appropriate loading and biological controls.
- Immunohistochemistry (IHC): Evaluate spatial distribution of SH3GL2 in tissue sections, considering fixation and antigen retrieval effects.
- Immunofluorescence / ICC: Assess subcellular localization patterns and co-localization with compartment markers in cultured cells.
- Flow cytometry: Quantify SH3GL2-positive populations in single-cell suspensions with appropriate gating and controls.
- ELISA: Use antibody-based detection formats to assess antigen presence or binding in plate-based assays.
Notes for experimental interpretation
- Account for isoforms, post-translational modifications, and sample-specific processing that can shift apparent molecular weight or epitope accessibility.
- Use positive/negative biological controls where possible (e.g., known-expressing cells/tissues, knockdown/knockout models) and include appropriate secondary-only/isotype controls for imaging workflows.
Additional product notes (from provided fields)
- Background: Endophilin-A1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SH3GL2 gene. Endophilin proteins are part of a large family of Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs (BAR) domain proteins that are involved in cell membrane remodeling. The endophilins are encoded by five genes, which produce endophilin A 1-3 and B 1-2. Endophilins are involved in many cellular mechanisms, such as synaptic vesicle recycling, receptor trafficking, and membrane remodeling processes. Research studies indicate that endophilin 1 (endophilin A1, SH3GL2) can induce different membrane shapes and participate in the morphogenesis of dendritic spines. Endophilin 1 is also involved in regulating blood brain barrier permeability via the EGFR-JNK pathway.
- Cross reactivity: No cross-reactivity with other proteins.
- Cellular localization: Nucleus.
- Tissue details: Expressed in the brain and the retina. Present in the developing brain, spinal cord and eye.
