Scientific Data Images for Human Pygopus-2 Antibody

Detection of Human Pygopus-2 antibody by Western Blot.

Detection of Human Pygopus‑2 by Western Blot.

Western blot shows lysates of HeLa human cervical epithelial carcinoma cell line, MCF-7 human breast cancer cell line, and Daudi human Burkitt's lymphoma cell line. PVDF Membrane was probed with 0.5 µg/mL of Mouse Anti-Human Pygopus-2 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB3616) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF007). A specific band was detected for Pygopus-2 at approximately 55 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.
Pygopus-2 antibody in MCF-7 Human Cell Line by Immunocytochemistry (ICC).

Pygopus‑2 in MCF‑7 Human Cell Line.

Pygopus-2 was detected in immersion fixed MCF-7 human breast cancer cell line using Mouse Anti-Human Pygopus-2 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB3616) at 10 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (red, upper panel; Catalog # NL007) and counterstained with DAPI (blue, lower panel). Specific staining was localized to nuclei. View our protocol for Fluorescent ICC Staining of Cells on Coverslips.
Detection of Human Pygopus-2 antibody by Simple WesternTM.

Detection of Human Pygopus‑2 by Simple WesternTM.

Simple Western lane view shows lysates of HeLa human cervical epithelial carcinoma cell line, loaded at 0.2 mg/mL. A specific band was detected for Pygopus‑2 at approximately 65 kDa (as indicated) using 5 µg/mL of Mouse Anti-Human Pygopus‑2 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB3616). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using the 12-230 kDa separation system.

Background: Pygopus-2

Human Pygopus-2 (pygopus; the name of a legless Australian lizard) is a 41 kDa, 406 amino acid (aa) transcriptional coactivator.  It contains three domains: an N‑terminal NLS (aa 41-47), followed by a proline-rich region and a zinc-finger PHD-type domain (aa 330-387).  A potential internal alternate start site may generate an isoform that deletes the first 37 aa.  Pygopus 2 is a nuclear protein that acts in concert with BCL-9 and TCF to retain beta-Catenin in the nucleus during Wnt-signaling.  It does so by forming a “chain-of-adaptors” with the above three proteins.  Over the range of aa used for immunization, human pygopus 2 is 95% identical to mouse.
