Western blot - Human BBC3 (PUMA) knockout HeLa cell line (AB261832)

Lanes 1 - 4 : Merged signal (red and green). Green - anti-Puma antibody observed at 25 kDa. Red - loading control ab7291 (Mouse anti-Alpha Tubulin [DM1A]) observed at 55 kDa.

anti-Puma antibody was shown to react with Puma in wild-type HeLa cells in Western blot with loss of signal observed in BBC3 knockout cell line ab261832 (BBC3 knockout cell lysate ab256848). Wild-type HeLa and BBC3 knockout cell lysates were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Membranes were blocked in 3 % milk in TBS-T (0.1 % Tween®) before incubation with anti-Puma antibody and ab7291 (Mouse anti-Alpha Tubulin [DM1A]) overnight at 4 °C at a 1 in 1000 dilution and a 1 in 20000 dilution respectively. Blots were incubated with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed (ab216776) secondary antibodies at 1 in 20000 dilution for 1 h 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

Supplementary information

PUMA also known as BBC3 (Bcl-2-binding component-3) is a pro-apoptotic protein that plays important mechanical roles in promoting apoptosis. It has a mass of approximately 23 kDa. PUMA is expressed widely in various tissues including the lung liver and heart. The protein works mechanically by interacting with anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 family members releasing pro-apoptotic factors like Bax and Bak which engage mitochondria to trigger cell death.
Biological function summary

PUMA functions as a pivotal mediator of apoptosis in response to diverse stimuli such as DNA damage and oncogenic stress. As part of the Bcl-2 family PUMA does not typically form a complex with other proteins but functions directly by binding and neutralizing anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 family proteins. This action results in the release of caspase-activating factors from mitochondria essential for programmed cell death.

Pathways

Several cellular pathways incorporate PUMA to regulate apoptosis. PUMA is notably included in the p53 pathway where p53 transcriptionally activates PUMA following cellular stress or DNA damage. The presence of related proteins like Bax and Bim in the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway links these signals to the mitochondrial death machinery facilitating apoptosis.

PUMA plays significant roles in cancer and neurodegenerative conditions. PUMA overexpression induces excessive cell death relevant in the pathology of neurodegenerative diseases. In cancer PUMA's interactions with proteins like p53 highlight its involvement in tumor suppression suggesting that dysregulation of PUMA expression can contribute to tumorigenesis when anti-apoptotic signals predominate potentially leading to chemoresistance.
