Western blot - Human FLOT2 (Flotillin 2/ESA) knockout HEK-293T cell line (AB266847)

Lanes 1-4 : Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab181988 observed at 47 kDa. Red - loading control ab8245 observed at 36 kDa.

ab181988 Anti-Flotillin 2/ESA antibody [EPR14128(B)] was shown to specifically react with Flotillin 2/ESA in wild-type HEK293T cells. Loss of signal was observed when knockout cell line ab266847 (knockout cell lysate ab257442) was used. Wild-type and Flotillin 2/ESA knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab181988 and Anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] - Loading Control (ab8245) were incubated at room temperature for 2.5 hours at 1 in 1000 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

Flotillin 2 also known as flotillin-2 or ESA is a protein weighing approximately 48 kDa and is a part of the flotillin family. It is expressed in various human tissues with high presence in the brain heart and skeletal muscles. This protein is an integral component of the lipid raft microdomains in cell membranes where it assists in cellular processes such as signal transduction and lipid trafficking. Its membrane association depends on N-terminal hydrophobic sequences which contribute to its distribution on the cell surface.
Biological function summary

Flotillins serve as scaffolding proteins in cellular signaling and play a part in the regulation of endocytosis. Flotillin 2 often forms a hetero-oligomeric complex with Flotillin 1 facilitating its role in organizing membrane microdomains. This interaction supports cellular activities like molecular transport and signal relay. Flotillin 2 contributes to dynamic cellular structures and has been suggested to influence actin cytoskeleton assembly giving it a role in cellular morphology and motility.

Pathways

Flotillin 2 associates with important cell signaling pathways notably the MAPK and Wnt signaling pathways. In MAPK pathways flotillin 2 influences cell proliferation and differentiation by modulating interaction with signaling proteins like Ras and ERK. In the context of the Wnt signaling pathway it impacts cellular communication influencing gene expression and development processes by engaging with Dishevelled proteins. These pathways highlight its critical part in processes like cellular growth and communication.

Flotillin 2 exhibits connections regarding metabolic and neurodegenerative conditions. Flotillin 2 upregulation appears linked with metabolic syndromes associating with insulin signaling disruptions. Furthermore alterations in its expression relate to neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's where it impacts amyloid precursor protein processing and tau protein pathology. These associations position flotillin 2 as a significant player in the understanding and potential treatment of these disorders.
