Scientific Data Images for Fibrillarin Antibody (4A4)

Western Blot: Fibrillarin Antibody [NBP3-05533]

Western Blot: Fibrillarin Antibody [NBP3-05533]

Western Blot: Fibrillarin Antibody [NBP3-05533] - Western blot analysis of different tissue and cell line lysates using Fibrillarin Antibody at a dilution of 1:2,000, in green: [1] protein standard (red), [2] rat whole brain, [3] mouse whole brain, [4] NIH-3T3 cells,[5] HEK293, [6] HeLa, and [7] SH-SY5Y cells. Strong band at ~35kDa corresponds to Fibrillarin protein seen in all cell line lysates. A much weaker band is seen in tissue lysates since Fibrillarin is more heavily expressed in rapidly dividing cells. The blot simultaneously was probed with rabbit pAb to UCHL1 at a dilution of 1:3,000, in red, revealing the ~25kDa UCHL1 protein in lysates of tissues containing neurons or cells with neuronal properties.
Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence: Fibrillarin Antibody [NBP3-05533]

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence: Fibrillarin Antibody [NBP3-05533]

Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence: Fibrillarin Antibody [NBP3-05533] - Immunofluorescent analysis of (A) C6 rat glioma cells and (B) HEK293 human embryonic kidney cells stained with Fibrillarin Antibody at a dilution of 1:1,000 in red, in both cases costained with chicken pAb to vimentin at a dilution of 1:10,000 in green. The blue is DAPI staining of nuclear DNA. The Fibrillarin antibody detects Fibrillarin protein localized in nucleoli while the vimentin antibody produces strong staining of cytoplasmic intermediate filaments.

Background: Fibrillarin

Nop1p / Fibrillarin was originally identified as a nucleolar protein of bakers yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae (accession P15646). The Nop1p protein is essential for yeast viability and is localized in the nucleoli. The human homologue of Nop1p is fibrillarin (accession P22087) a component of the nucleolar small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP) particle. The human fibrillarin gene is located on chromosome 19 (19q13.1). Fibrillarin proteins have been cloned and sequenced from several other species (Mouse, accession P35550, Xenopus accession P22232, C. elegans accession Q22053, and S. pombe accession P35551). The N terminal 80 amino acids contain multiple copies based on the peptide RGG, and the remaining 240 amino acids consist of the fibrillarin domain. A fibrillarin homologue has also been identified in the genome of the archean Methanococcus (accession NC_000909). This protein lacks the RGG rich N-terminal extension but is clearly homologous to the other sequences throughout all of the fibrillarin domain. The structure of this molecule has been determined and shown to consist of 2 extended beta-sheets flanked by 4 alpha-helixes. Patients with the autoimmune disease scleroderma often have strong circulating autoantibodies to a 34kDa protein which was subsequently found to be fibrillarin. Fibrillarin is an excellent marker for the nucleolus.
