Western blot - Human AGO3 knockout HeLa cell line (AB265320)

ab154844 Anti-AGO3 antibody [EPR9576] was shown to specifically react with Argonaute RISC Catalytic Component 3 in HeLa wild-type cells (ab255928). Loss of signal was observed when knockout cell line ab265320 (knockout cell lysate ab257819) was used. Wild-type and Argonaute RISC Catalytic Component 3 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab154844 and Anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] - Loading Control (ab8245) were incubated overnight at 4° at 1 in 2000 dilution and 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.

Supplementary information

AGO3 also known as Argonaute protein 3 is an important component of the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC). It is part of the Argonaute family which plays a role in RNA silencing processes. AGO3 usually has a molecular mass of around 97 kDa. It is mainly expressed in human tissues such as testes and is responsible for processing small non-coding RNAs including miRNAs and siRNAs. These small RNAs guide AGO3 to complementary RNA sequences facilitating the cleavage and degradation of target mRNA.
Biological function summary

AGO3 contributes to gene expression regulation by silencing specific RNA transcripts. This protein forms a complex with other proteins and RNA molecules to execute its functions. Part of the miRNA and RNA interference pathways AGO3 associates with Dicer and other Argonaute proteins creating an effective silencing machinery that modulates various cellular processes. Its activity is essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis through RNA interference-mediated gene silencing.

Pathways

AGO3 plays a significant role in the RNA interference (RNAi) and the microRNA (miRNA) pathways. These pathways are key in post-transcriptional gene regulation controlling gene expression patterns important for development and differentiation. AGO3 interacts with Dicer a pivotal enzyme in the RNAi pathway facilitating the processing of precursor miRNAs into mature miRNAs further guiding RISC to its target mRNA sequences. These interactions highlight AGO3's critical place in RNA silencing networks.

AGO3 has links to certain cancers and hereditary disorders. Aberrations in its expression or function can impact miRNA-mediated regulation contributing to tumorigenesis and disorders related to gene expression imbalances. For instance AGO3's dysfunction can relate to testicular cancer due to its significant expression in testicular tissue. Connections between AGO3 and other Argonaute family proteins like AGO1 and AGO2 may influence disease development highlighting its importance in understanding disease mechanisms.
