Western blot - Human DNAJB1 (Hsp40) knockout HEK-293T cell line (AB266344)

Lanes 1-4 : Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab223607 observed at 39 kDa. Red - loading control ab52901 observed at kDa.

ab223607 Anti-Hsp40 antibody [3B9.E6] was shown to specifically react with Hsp40 in wild-type HEK293T cells. Loss of signal was observed when knockout cell line ab266344 (knockout cell lysate ab258400) was used. Wild-type and Hsp40 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab223607 and Anti-beta Tubulin [EP1331Y] - Microtubule Marker (ab52901) were incubated overnight at 4°C at 1 in 500 dilution and 1 in 20000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preadsorbed (ab216777) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preadsorbed (ab216772) 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

Supplementary information

Hsp40 also known as DnaJB1 is a member of the heat shock protein family that acts mechanically as a molecular chaperone. This protein with a mass of approximately 41 kDa assists in protein folding and stabilization preventing aggregation under stress conditions. Hsp40 proteins are widely expressed in various tissues and are important in maintaining cellular homeostasis. In addition to DnaJB1 other aliases include 3b9 and 2a7 which emphasize its variety within the Hsp40 family.
Biological function summary

Hsp40 proteins participate in cell signaling and stress response by modulating the activity of Hsp70 forming a functional complex with it to guide protein folding processes. This process is essential for protein quality control and cellular protection. It interacts with unfolded proteins and delivers them to Hsp70 enhancing its ATPase activity necessary for the proper functioning of these molecular chaperones. The expression of Hsp40 in stress conditions highlights its importance in the protein quality control system.

Pathways

Hsp40 is involved in important cellular mechanisms like the unfolded protein response and protein catabolism pathways. It works closely with Hsp70 playing a pivotal role in managing protein misfolding and aggregation vital for cellular stress response and recovery. In these pathways Hsp40's function ensures the proper folding and degradation of damaged proteins maintaining proteostasis in the cell.

Hsp40 influences the development of neurodegenerative diseases and certain cancers. Mutations or altered expression of Hsp40 can lead to disrupted protein homeostasis contributing to conditions like Alzheimer's disease and tumor progression. In Alzheimer's disease besides interacting with Hsp70 Hsp40 affects the accumulation of amyloid-beta peptides. In cancer contexts it may interact with other chaperone proteins affecting their function and therefore promoting tumor aggressiveness and resistance to stress.
