Applications

Show applications key

Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab25631 in the following tested applications.

The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Target

Function

Implicated in tumor cell metastasis. May function in protection of the lysosomal membrane from autodigestion, maintenance of the acidic environment of the lysosome, adhesion when expressed on the cell surface (plasma membrane), and inter-and intracellular signal transduction. Protects cells from the toxic effects of methylating mutagens.

Tissue specificity

Isoform LAMP-2A is highly expressed in placenta, lung and liver, less in kidney and pancreas, low in brain and skeletal muscle. Isoform LAMP-2B is highly expressed in skeletal muscle, less in brain, placenta, lung, kidney and pancreas, very low in liver.

Involvement in disease

Defects in LAMP2 are the cause of Danon disease (DAND) [MIM:300257]; also known as glycogen storage disease type 2B (GSD2B). DAND is a lysosomal glycogen storage disease characterized by the clinical triad of cardiomyopathy, vacuolar myopathy and mental retardation. It is often associated with an accumulation of glycogen in muscle and lysosomes.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the LAMP family.

Post-translational
modifications

O- and N-glycosylated; some of the 16 N-linked glycans are polylactosaminoglycans.

Cellular localization

Cell membrane. Endosome membrane. Lysosome membrane. This protein shuttles between lysosomes, endosomes, and the plasma membrane.

ab25631 at 0.5µg/ml staining human HEK cells by immunocytochemistry. The cells were fixed with paraformaldehyde and incubated with the antibody for 1 hour. Bound antibody was detected using a goat anti-mouse IgG Alexa-Fluor ® 568. In the confocal image ab25631 labelling in red shows a distribution consistent with the location of lysosomes. Blue nuclear counterstain is present.

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections)-LAMP2 antibody [H4B4] - Lysosome Marker(ab25631)

Ab25631 staining human normal placenta. Staining is localized to the cytoplasm.
Left panel: with primary antibody at 1 ug/ml. Right panel: isotype control.
Sections were stained using an automated system DAKO Autostainer Plus , at room temperature. Sections were rehydrated and antigen retrieved with the Dako 3-in-1 AR buffers EDTA pH 9.0 in a DAKO PT Link. Slides were peroxidase blocked in 3% H2O2 in methanol for 10 minutes. They were then blocked with Dako Protein block for 10 minutes (containing casein 0.25% in PBS) then incubated with primary antibody for 20 minutes and detected with Dako Envision Flex amplification kit for 30 minutes. Colorimetric detection was completed with Diaminobenzidine for 5 minutes. Slides were counterstained with Haematoxylin and coverslipped under DePeX. Please note that for manual staining we recommend to optimize the primary antibody concentration and incubation time (overnight incubation), and amplification may be required.

ab25631 staining LAMP2 in human THP-1 cells by Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence. Cells were fixed with paraformaldehyde, permeabilized with Triton X-100 and blocking with 1% BSA at 220C for 2 hours was done. Samples were incubated with primary antibody (1/400: in PBST and 1% BSA) for 16 hour at 40C. An Alexa Fluor ® 568-conjugated goat polyclonal to mouse IgG was used at dilution at 1/500 as secondary antibody. Merge figure shows the bright field image and fluorescent image combined.

Overlay histogram showing THP1 cells stained with ab25631 (red line). The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 20 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab25631, 0.5µg/1x106 cells) for 30 min at 22°C. The secondary antibody used was DyLight® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) (ab96879) at 1/500 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was mouse IgG1 [ICIGG1] (ab91353, 2µg/1x106 cells) used under the same conditions. Acquisition of >5,000 events was performed. This antibody gave a positive signal in THP1 cells fixed with methanol (5 min)/permeabilized in 0.1% PBS-Tween used under the same conditions.
