ab240635 staining SQSTM1 in wild-type Hap1 cells and SQSTM1 knockout Hap1 cells treated with chloroquine (ab142116, 50μM for 24 hrs). The cells were fixed with 100% methanol (5 min) then permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 5 minutes and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated with ab240635 at 1μg/ml concentration and ab7291 (Mouse monoclonal to alpha Tubulin) at 1/1000 dilution overnight at 4°C followed by a further incubation at room temperature for 1h with a goat secondary antibody to rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488) (ab150081) at 2 μg/ml (shown in green) and a goat secondary antibody to mouse IgG (Alexa Fluor® 594) (ab150120) at 2 μg/ml (shown in red). Nuclear DNA was labelled in blue with DAPI.

Supplementary information

Progesterone receptor often called PR or NR3C3 acts as a ligand-activated transcription factor. It has a molecular weight ranging from 93 to 116 kDa depending on isoforms. PR is typically expressed in reproductive tissues like uterus and mammary glands. The acetylcholinesterase enzyme (AChE) breaks down acetylcholine in neuromuscular junctions and brain synapses with a mass of about 65 kDa. Gli3 a zinc finger transcription factor weighing roughly 160 kDa is active mainly in the developing brain and limbs. Androgen receptor (AR) important for male sexual development weighs approximately 110 kDa and expresses mostly in male reproductive organs. Constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) a nuclear receptor with about 40 – 50 kDa expresses significantly in liver and intestine.
Biological function summary

These proteins engage in distinct yet sometimes overlapping roles. PR regulates expression of genes critical for female reproductive processes. AChE facilitates termination of synaptic transmission not existing as part of a larger protein complex. Gli3 functions in limb and central nervous system development often as part of the hedgehog signaling complex. AR modulates transcription of androgen-responsive genes playing a role in male characteristics and fertility. CAR activates detoxification pathways including metabolism of drugs and toxins in the liver.

Pathways

These proteins integrate into various important biological processes. PR participates in steroid hormone signaling pathways interacting with estrogen receptor. AChE is central to the cholinergic neurotransmission pathway connecting with nicotinic and muscarinic receptors. Gli3 associates with sonic hedgehog (Shh) pathway influencing limb patterning and brain structure alongside other Gli family members. AR involves in growth regulation pathways frequently intersecting with insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1). CAR contributes to drug metabolism pathways working in conjunction with the pregnane X receptor (PXR).

These proteins are linked to significant health concerns. PR abnormalities connect with breast cancer where estrogen receptor plays a central role. Defects in AChE relate to neuromuscular disorders like myasthenia gravis. Mutations in Gli3 may cause disorders such as Greig cephalopolysyndactyly syndrome often involving other Shh pathway proteins. Dysfunctional AR can lead to androgen insensitivity syndrome and prostate cancer with key links to genes regulating cell growth. CAR variations associate with liver diseases influencing response to drugs and environmental toxins with the PXR as a related factor.
