Each vial of cell lysate contains 100ug of total protein (at 1 mg/ml). The 2xSDS Sample Buffer consists of 4% SDS, 125mM Tris-HCl pH6.8, 10% Glycerol, 0.002% Bromophenol blue, 100mM DTT.

Product Specifications

Application Notes

This product is intended for use as a positive control in Western Blot. Overexpression of the target protein was confirmed using an antibody to DDK (FLAG) epitope tag (NBP1-71705) present on the protein construct.

Each vial of cell lysate contains 100ug of total protein which should be sufficient for 20-50 reactions. Depending on over-expression level, antibody affinity and detection system, some lysates can go as low as 0.1 ug per load. We recommend starting with 5ug of cell lysate. Add an equal amount of cell lysate and 2X SDS Sample buffer and boil the SDS samples for 10 minutes before loading.

TMW

41.9 kDa.
Disclaimer note: The observed molecular weight of the protein may vary from the listed predicted molecular weight due to post translational modifications, post translation cleavages, relative charges, and other experimental factors.

Background: LAMP-1/CD107a

LAMP-1 (lysosome-associated membrane protein 1), also known as CD107a (cluster of differentiation 107a), is a major component of lysosomal membranes that plays an important role in lysosomal biogenesis, autophagy, and cholesterol metabolism (1). LAMP-1 is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein that is expressed on plasma membranes and the membranes of endosomes, autolysosomes, and lysosomes (1,2). Additionally, LAMP-1/CD107a is a commonly used marker for natural killer (NK) cell degranulation (3). LAMP-1 and another lysosomal-associated membrane protein, LAMP-2, together make up about half of all lysosome membrane proteins (1). Additionally, LAMP-1 has a role in presenting carbohydrate ligands to selectins (2). Human LAMP-1 protein is comprised of 417 amino acids (aa) with a theoretical molecular weight of 44.8 kDa; however, glycosylation can increase the molecular weight upwards of 120 kDa (1, 4). Structurally, LAMP-1 protein contains a large luminal/extracellular domain (29-382 aa), a helical transmembrane domain (383-405 aa), and a short cytoplasmic tail (406-417 aa) (1,2). Additionally, the protein has many N- and O-linked glycosylation sites which helps with stability in the membrane (1,2).

LAMP-1 plays an important role in autophagy-mediated ATP-release during apoptosis where lysosomes containing intracellular ATP migrate to the plasma membrane and, during exocytosis, LAMP-1 is exposed to the cell surface (5). Studies have found that knockdown of LAMP-1 blocks the ATP release from the cell (5). Furthermore, an absence of LAMP-1 and LAMP-2 leads to an accumulation of lysosomal cholesterol (6). Lysosomal membrane dysfunction or defects has also been associated with disease development (6,7). For example, one feature of pancreatitis is autophagy impairment which is caused by lysosomal dysfunction and a corresponding decrease in lysosomal-membrane associated proteins LAMP-1 and LAMP-2 (7).

Product Specific Notices for LAMP-1/CD107a Overexpression Lysate

HEK293T cells in 10-cm dishes were transiently transfected with a non-lipid polymer transfection reagent specially designed and manufactured for large volume DNA transfection. Transfected cells were cultured for 48hrs before collection. The cells were lysed in modified RIPA buffer (25mM Tris-HCl pH7.6, 150mM NaCl, 1% NP-40, 1mM EDTA, 1xProteinase inhibitor cocktail mix, 1mM PMSF and 1mM Na3VO4, and then centrifuged to clarify the lysate. Protein concentration was measured by BCA protein assay kit.
