Western Blot: Lamin A + C Antibody (4C4) [NBP2-25151]

Western Blot: Lamin A + C Antibody (4C4) [NBP2-25151] - Analysis of different cell lysates using mouse mAb to lamin A/C, NBP2-25151, dilution 1:1,000 in green: [1] protein standard (red), [2] HeLa, [3] HEK293 [4] C6, and [5] NIH-3T3 cell lysates. Two strong bands at 74 and 65kDa correspond to the lamin A and lamin C proteins respectively, detected only in the cells of human origin. NBP2-25151 antibody failed to recognize rat or mouse proteins.

Background: Lamin A + C

The Lamin proteins are members of the intermediate filament protein family but are located inside the nucleus rather than in the cytoplasm. The Lamins function as skeletal components tightly associated with the inner nuclear membrane. Originally the proteins of the nuclear cytoskeleton were named Lamin A, B and C, from top to bottom as visualized on SDS-PAGE gels. Subsequently it was found that Lamins A and C were coded for by a single gene, while the Lamin B band may contain two proteins encoded by two genes now called Lamin B1 and Lamin B2. Lamin A has a mass of about 74kDa while Lamin C is 65kDa. The Lamin A protein includes a C-terminal segment of 98 amino acids missing from Lamin C, while Lamin C has a unique C-terminal 6 amino acid peptide not present in Lamin A. Apart from these regions Lamin A and C are identical so that antibodies raised against either protein are likely to cross react with the other. Lamin polymerization and depolymerization is regulated by phosphorylation by cyclin dependent protein kinase 1 (CDK1), the key component of "maturation promoting factor", the central regulator of cell division. Activity of this kinase increases during cell division and is responsible for the breakdown of the nuclear lamina. Mutations in the LMNA gene are associated with several serious human diseases, including Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy, familial partial lipodystrophy, limb girdle muscular dystrophy, dilated cardiomyopathy, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2B1, and Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome. This family of diseases belong to a larger group which are often referred to as Laminopathies, though some Laminopathies are associated in defects in Lamin B1, B2 or one or other of the numerous nuclear lamina binding proteins. A truncated version of Lamin A, commonly known as progerin, causes Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome, a form of premature aging.
