Western blot - Human PAX6 knockout A549 cell line (AB288955)

Western blot : Anti-PAX6 antibody [EPR15858] (ab195045) staining at 1/1000 dilution, shown in green; Mouse anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] (ab8245) loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in magenta. In Western blot, ab195045 was shown to bind specifically to PAX6. A band was observed at 50 kDa in wild-type A549 cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in PAX6 knockout cell line. To generate this image, wild-type and PAX6 knockout A549 cell lysates were analysed. First, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 5 % milk in TBS-0.1 % Tween® 20 (TBS-T) before incubation with primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C. Blots were washed four times in TBS-T, incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times then imaged. Secondary antibodies used were Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L 800CW and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L 680RD at 1/20000 dilution.

Product details

Although we aim to provide customers with a homozygous clone, feasibility will be dependent on the biology of the protein. Should only heterozygous edits be achieved, you will be notified of the outcome and be asked to confirm whether the cell line is acceptable. All clones will be accompanied with DNA sequencing data, and the mutation description.

Recommended control: Human wild-type A549 cell line (ab288558). Please note a wild-type cell line is not automatically included with a knockout cell line order, if required please add recommended wild-type cell line at no additional cost using the code WILDTYPE-TMTK1.

We will provide viable cells that proliferate on revival.

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.
  • Do not allow the cell density to exceed 7x104 cells/cm2.

Supplementary information

The PAX6 protein also known as paired box 6 is a transcription factor involved in the development of eyes and neural tissues. It consists of a paired domain and a homeodomain collectively giving a molecular weight of approximately 48 kDa. This protein is highly expressed in developing ocular and central nervous tissues where it controls the expression of genes necessary for proper development. PAX6 is a widely studied marker in developmental biology due to its critical role in cellular differentiation and patterning processes.
Biological function summary

PAX6 acts as an important regulator in eye and neural development functioning alone and as part of larger complexes with other transcription factors. This role ensures the correct formation of ocular structures including the lens retina and cornea and neural elements by activating downstream targets important for cell fate decisions. The PAX6 protein intricately influences the genetic circuits that guide stem cell differentiation highlighting its importance in embryogenesis and organogenesis.

Pathways

PAX6 is pivotal in the Wnt signaling pathway and retinoic acid signaling. Its interaction within the Wnt pathway orchestrates vital developmental processes including those of eye morphogenesis and brain patterning. The protein collaborates with other transcriptional regulators such as SOX2 and EYA1 within these pathways facilitating the complex network of signals necessary for organ development and cellular identity specification.

PAX6 mutations have strong associations with aniridia and congenital eye malformations. Mutations in PAX6 disrupt the transcriptional regulation required for eye development often resulting in severe vision defects and structural anomalies. The intracacy of its involvement extends to disorders like Wilms' tumor wherein its altered expression or function in conjunction with proteins such as WT1 may contribute to oncogenesis. Scientists frequently use PAX6 staining to investigate these conditions and better understand their molecular underpinnings.
