Scientific Data Images for SMN Antibody (2B1)

Immunohistochemistry: SMN Antibody (2B1) [NB100-1936]

Immunohistochemistry: SMN Antibody (2B1) [NB100-1936]

Immunohistochemistry: SMN Antibody (2B1) [NB100-1936] - CBs lose their colocalization with SMN nuclear foci in diabetic mice. Normal and pathological distribution of SMN proteins in sensory neurons. SMN proteins were found throughout the cytoplasm and as nuclear foci in control sensory neurons. SMN nuclear foci localized within CBs (coilin) in controls (upper panels, white arrows), whereas in the diabetic nucleus the numerous CBs were present but lost their colocalization with SMN nuclear foci (lower panels, yellow arrows). Arrowheads indicate sensory neurons magnified in the insets. Scale bars: 20 um, 10 um in insets.

Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence: SMN Antibody (2B1) [NB100-1936] - HeLa cells were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 10 minutes and permeabilized in 0.5% Triton X-100 in PBS for 5 minutes. The cells were incubated with anti- NB100-1936 at 2 ug/ml overnight at 4C and detected with an anti-mouse Dylight 488 (Green) at a 1:1000 dilution for 60 minutes. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (Blue). Cells were imaged using a 100X objective and digitally deconvolved.

Background: SMN

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a common fatal autosomal recessive disorder characterized by the degeneration of motor neurons and muscular atrophy. A gene called Survival of Motor Neurons (SMN) has been identified as the determining gene in SMA and is deleted or mutated in greater than 98% of SMA patients. The SMN protein localizes to both the cytoplasm and the nucleus. In the nucleus, SMN has been found to localize in a nuclear structure termed gems for Gemini of coiled bodies, which contain high levels of small ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs). SMN forms complexes with proteins including SIP1, Gemin 2-7 and several others known to be involved in the biogenesis of snRNPs. SMN antibodies may serve as a useful research tool to study SMN complexes and gems, and their role in pre-RNA processing and RNA metabolism.
