ab310333 was shown to react with TGM2 in wild-type A549 cells in immunocytochemistry with loss of signal observed in TGM2 knockout cell line ab261876. Wild-type and knockout cells were mixed and pelleted at a 1 : 1 ratio on coverslips. The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (15 min) then permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 (10min) and then blocked with 1x PBS, 0.01% Triton X-100, 5% BSA, 5% NGS. The cells were then incubated with ab310333 at 1/500 dilution overnight at 4°C followed by a further incubation at room temperature for 1h with a goat anti-rabbit secondary antibody to (Alexa Fluor® 555) at 0.5 µg/ml. Acquisition of the green (wild-type), red (antibody staining) and far-red (knockout) channels was performed. Representative grayscale images of the red channel are shown. Wild-type and knockout cells are outlined with yellow and magenta dashed line, respectively. Schematic representation of the mosaic strategy used is shown on the bottom-right panel. Image was acquired with a Zeiss(LSM-880).

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.
Culture medium

F-12K + 10% FBS

Cryopreservation medium

Supplementary information

Transglutaminase 2 also known as TG2 or tissue transglutaminase is an enzyme with a mass of approximately 74 kDa. It catalyzes the formation of covalent bonds by crosslinking glutamine residues and lysine residues in proteins. This enzyme is widely expressed in various tissues including the liver heart and lungs. It can act as a GTPase a kinase and a protein disulfide isomerase highlighting its multifunctional nature. Additionally transglutaminase 2 associates with cell membranes cytoskeleton and extracellular matrix indicating its versatile involvement in cellular processes.
Biological function summary

Transglutaminase 2 plays roles in cell adhesion wound healing and the immune response. It mediates extracellular matrix stabilization through crosslinking structural proteins which is critical for tissue repair. The enzyme does not typically form a stable part of a large complex but interacts with fibronectin as a binding partner highlighting its role in cellular adhesion and migration. The enzymatic activity of transglutaminase 2 helps maintain tissue integrity by modifying extracellular and intracellular proteins.

Pathways

Transglutaminase 2 contributes significantly to the integrin-mediated signaling pathway and the apoptosis pathway. It assists in the modulation of cell-matrix interactions by crosslinking matrix proteins which is important for integrin signaling. During apoptosis transglutaminase 2 promotes cellular processes that lead to cell death via its involvement in nuclear condensation and DNA fragmentation. In these pathways proteins such as fibronectin and integrins interact with transglutaminase 2 facilitating its regulatory functions.

Transglutaminase 2 is associated with celiac disease and neurodegenerative disorders like Huntington's disease. Its autoantigenic properties make it a target in celiac disease where antibodies against transglutaminase 2 play a role in the pathology by affecting intestinal tissue. In Huntington's disease transglutaminase 2 contributes to the formation of protein aggregates which are toxic to neurons. This enzyme's interactions with proteins such as gliadin in celiac disease and huntingtin in Huntington's disease are central to its pathogenic mechanism.
