Western blot - Human ACTN1 (alpha Actinin) knockout HeLa cell line (AB265610)

Lanes 1- 2 : Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab68194 observed at 103 kDa. Red - Anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] - Loading Control (ab8245) observed at 37 kDa.

ab68194 was shown to react with alpha Actinin/ACTN1 in wild-type HeLa cells in western blot. Loss of signal was observed when knockout cell line ab265610 (knockout cell lysate ab257337) was used. Wild-type HeLa and ACTN1 knockout HeLa cell lysates were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Membrane was blocked for 1 hour at room temperature in 0.1% TBST with 3% non-fat dried milk. ab68194 and Anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] - Loading Control (ab8245) were incubated overnight at 4° at a 1 in 2000 dilution and a 1 in 20000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye®800CW) preadsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye®680RD) preadsorbed (ab216776) secondary antibodies at 1 in 20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

Handling procedures

Initial handling guidelines

Upon arrival, the vial should be stored in liquid nitrogen vapor phase and not at -80°C. Storage at -80°C may result in loss of viability.

1. Thaw the vial in 37°C water bath for approximately 1-2 minutes.
2. Transfer the cell suspension (0.8 mL) to a 15 mL/50 mL conical sterile polypropylene centrifuge tube containing 8.4 mL pre-warmed culture medium, wash vial with an additional 0.8 mL culture medium (total volume 10 mL) to collect remaining cells, and centrifuge at 201 x g (rcf) for 5 minutes at room temperature. 10 mL represents minimum recommended dilution. 20 mL represents maximum recommended dilution.
3. Resuspend the cell pellet in 5 mL pre-warmed culture medium and count using a haemocytometer or alternative cell counting method seed all remaining cells into a T25.
4. Incubate the culture at 37°C incubator with 5% CO2. Check the culture one day after revival and continue to check until 80% confluent. Media change can be given if needed.
5. Once confluent passage into an appropriate flask at a density of 2x104 cells/cm2. Seeding density is given as a guide only and should be scaled to align with individual lab schedules. Cultures should be monitored daily.

Subculture guidelines
  • All seeding densities should be based on cell counts gained by established methods.
  • A guide seeding density of 2x104 cells/cm2 is recommended.
  • Cells should be passaged when they have achieved 80-90% confluence.
Culture medium

DMEM (High Glucose) + 10% FBS

Cryopreservation medium

Cell Freezing Medium-DMSO Serum free media, contains 8.7% DMSO in MEM supplemented with methyl cellulose.

Supplementary information

Alpha Actinin-1 also known as ACTN1 or Actn 1 is a cytoskeletal protein that cross-links actin filaments in muscle and non-muscle cells. With a mass of approximately 100 kDa it is an important component of cell structures such as Z-discs in skeletal muscle. Alpha Actinin is expressed in a range of tissues including skeletal cardiac and smooth muscle as well as in various non-muscle cells. Its main role is to organize the actin cytoskeleton providing structural support and enabling cell motility.
Biological function summary

Alpha Actinin-1 helps maintain the structural integrity of cells by anchoring actin filaments and connecting them to integrins or membrane proteins. It often functions as part of a protein complex interacting with other cytoskeletal components and signaling molecules to stabilize cellular structures. In muscle cells it blends with titin and other sarcomeric proteins to assist muscle contraction. Beyond structural roles it partakes in cellular signaling pathways by interacting with signaling proteins and influencing cellular responses to external stimuli.

Pathways

Alpha Actinin-1 is involved in the regulation of the actin cytoskeleton pathway as well as the integrin signaling pathway. In these pathways it collaborates with proteins such as vinculin and paxillin modulating cell adhesion and movement. Its ability to interact with integrin-linked kinases suggests a role in transducing mechanical signals from the extracellular matrix to downstream signaling cascades.

Alpha Actinin-1 has been linked to a spectrum of muscular diseases and certain cancers. Mutations in Alpha Actinin-1 can contribute to hereditary diseases like congenital kidney disorders which affect actin filament organization in podocytes. In oncology altered expression levels of Alpha Actinin-1 can affect cell proliferation impacting tumor growth and metastasis. Its interaction with other proteins like focal adhesion kinase (FAK) underlines its involvement in these pathological conditions influencing cellular adhesion and signal transduction.
