Western blot - Human LBR (Lamin B Receptor) knockout HEK-293T cell line (AB266308)

Lanes 1 - 4 : Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab232731 observed at 58 kDa. Red - loading control ab181602 (Rabbit Anti-GAPDH antibody [EPR16891]) observed at 37kDa.

ab232731 was shown to react with Lamin B Receptor (LBR) in wild-type HEK-293 and MEF-1 cells in western blot. Loss of signal was observed when LBR knockout samples were used. Wild-type and LBR knockout (ab257503) HEK-293 cell lysates and wild-type and LBR knockout MEF-1 cell lysates were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Membranes were blocked in 3% milk before incubation with ab232731 and ab181602 (Rabbit Anti-GAPDH antibody [EPR16891]) overnight at 4° at 1 μg/ml and a 1 in 20000 dilution respectively. Blots were incubated with Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed (ab216772) and Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed (ab216777) secondary antibodies at 1 in 20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

LBR knockout MEF-1 samples were kindly provided by the Brian Burke laboratory A-Star Institute Singapore.

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

The Lamin B Receptor (LBR) also known as L. B. R. L B R or lamin B is a protein located in the inner nuclear membrane. This protein has a molecular mass of approximately 70 kDa. It acts as a receptor for lamin proteins specifically lamin B. The LBR mediates the attachment of heterochromatin and lamins to the inner nuclear membrane playing a structural role in the maintenance of nuclear architecture. It is widely expressed in various tissues notably in cells involved in rapidly proliferating tissues.
Biological function summary

The LBR protein serves several critical functions beyond its mechanical duties. It participates in the regulation of chromatin organization and gene expression owing to its interaction with chromatin-related proteins. LBR is part of the nuclear envelope lattice and forms complexes with lamin proteins and heterochromatin. This association supports its role in anchoring chromatin at the nuclear periphery modulating processes such as DNA replication and transcription.

Pathways

The LBR plays pivotal roles in nuclear envelope assembly and chromatin organization. It holds significance in the cholesterol biosynthesis pathway where it metabolizes sterol intermediates to cholesterol. This function relates LBR to other proteins including lamin A/C which collaborate in maintaining nuclear shape and function. Together they orchestrate various cellular processes important for cell cycle progression and differentiation.

Alterations in LBR function have links to conditions such as Pelger-Huët anomaly and Greenberg skeletal dysplasia. Pelger-Huët anomaly manifests as a benign hematologic condition with defective nuclear shape in neutrophils while Greenberg dysplasia is characterized by skeletal abnormalities. In these contexts LBR connects to lamin B and other nuclear envelope proteins that contribute to the pathophysiological features observed in these disorders.
