Western blot - Human PCBD1 knockout HEK-293T cell line (AB266261)

Lanes 1-4 : Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab138518 observed at 12 kDa. Red - loading control ab8245 observed at 36 kDa.

ab138518 Anti-PCBD1 antibody [EPR9760(B)] was shown to specifically react with PCBD1 in wild-type HEK293T cells. Loss of signal was observed when knockout cell line ab266261 (knockout cell lysate ab258095) was used. Wild-type and PCBD1 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab138518 and Anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] - Loading Control (ab8245) were incubated overnight at 4° at 1 in 500 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

PCBD1 also known as pterin-4-alpha-carbinolamine dehydratase or DCOH is a bifunctional protein with a molecular weight of approximately 12 kDa. It can be found expressed in a variety of tissues with significant expression noted in the liver and kidney. PCBD1 serves a dual role functioning both in enzymatic activity and as a co-regulator in transcription processes. Its enzymatic role involves catalyzing the dehydration of 4-alpha-hydroxy-tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) an essential cofactor in the synthesis of neurotransmitters.
Biological function summary

PCBD1 interacts with tetrahydrobiopterin metabolism participating in neurotransmitter synthesis through its dehydratase function. It also acts as a dimerization cofactor for HNF1 (HNF1A) a transcription factor critical in gene regulation. The PCBD1 protein forms dimers or tetramers indicating its capability to participate in complex formation which enhances transcriptional regulation. This regulatory activity affects several genes involved in hepatic metabolism and development.

Pathways

PCBD1 primarily influences the tetrahydrobiopterin biosynthesis pathway and the regulation of gene expression pathway via HNF1A. By facilitating neurotransmitter production it indirectly plays a role in neurological pathways specifically those related to dopamine and serotonin synthesis. Through its transcriptional co-regulation with HNF1A PCBD1 impacts glucose metabolism and pancreatic functions linking it to metabolic pathways.

Mutations or malfunctions of PCBD1 have associations with hyperphenylalaninemia a disorder affecting amino acid metabolism and with certain hyperinsulinemia forms influencing insulin regulation. Deficiencies in PCBD1 enzymatic function lead to altered levels of tetrahydrobiopterin while disruptions in its transcription co-regulation relate to impairments in glucose metabolism. Both HNF1A and PCBD1 mutations highlight their interconnected role in these conditions.
