Target

  • FunctionProtects against mitochondrial dysfunction during cellular stress, potentially by phosphorylating mitochondrial proteins. Involved in the clearance of damaged mitochondria via selective autophagy (mitophagy). It is necessary for PARK2 recruitement to dysfunctional mitochondria to initiate their degradation.
  • Tissue specificityHighly expressed in heart, skeletal muscle and testis, and at lower levels in brain, placenta, liver, kidney, pancreas, prostate, ovary and small intestine. Present in the embryonic testis from an early stage of development.
  • Involvement in diseaseDefects in PINK1 are the cause of Parkinson disease type 6 (PARK6) [MIM:605909]. A neurodegenerative disorder characterized by parkinsonian signs such as rigidity, resting tremor and bradykinesia. A subset of patients manifest additional symptoms including hyperreflexia, autonomic instability, dementia and psychiatric disturbances. Symptoms show diurnal fluctuation and can improve after sleep.
  • Sequence similaritiesBelongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Ser/Thr protein kinase family.
    Contains 1 protein kinase domain.
  • Post-translational
    modifications
    Autophosphorylated.
  • Cellular localizationMitochondrion outer membrane. Cytoplasm > cytosol.

  • Anti-PINK1 antibody (ab23707) at 4 µg/ml + Murine liver 100,000 x g pellet at 30 µg

    Observed band size : 66 kDa (why is the actual band size different from the predicted?)
    Additional bands at : 33 kDa (possible cleavage fragment).
  • ICC/IF image of ab23707 stained MCF7 cells. The cells were 100% methanol fixed (5 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab23707, 1µg/ml) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red) at a 1/200 dilution for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM.

  • Anti-PINK1 antibody (ab23707) at 1/1000 dilution + Whole cell lysate prepared from Jurkat cells at 100000 cells

    Secondary
    Donkey anti-rabbit IgG conjugated to HRP at 1/2000 dilution
    developed using the ECL technique

    Performed under reducing conditions.

    Observed band size : 66 kDa (why is the actual band size different from the predicted?)
    Additional bands at : 100 kDa,35 kDa. We are unsure as to the identity of these extra bands.

    Exposure time : 10 seconds
