Western blot - Human ULK3 knockout HEK-293T cell line (AB266152)

Lanes 1-4 : Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab124947 observed at 55 kDa. Red - loading control ab8245 observed at 36 kDa.

ab124947 Anti-ULK3 antibody [EPR4888] was shown to specifically react with ULK3 in wild-type HEK-293T cells. Loss of signal was observed when knockout cell line ab266152 (knockout cell lysate ab258271) was used. Wild-type and ULK3 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab124947 and Anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] - Loading Control (ab8245) were incubated overnight at 4° 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.
Culture medium

DMEM (High Glucose) + 10% FBS

Supplementary information

ULK3 also known as Unc-51 Like Autophagy Activating Kinase 3 is a serine/threonine-protein kinase with a molecular mass of approximately 58 kDa. This protein plays an important role in mediating cellular processes through phosphorylation. ULK3 shows expression in various tissues including the brain and kidney. Its catalytic activity influences multiple cellular events especially those related to autophagy the cell's degradation pathway for removing damaged organelles and recycling cellular components.
Biological function summary

This protein contributes significantly through its involvement in autophagy regulation. ULK3 acts as a kinase within a multiprotein complex which includes proteins such as ATG13 and FIP200. This complex is essential for initiating autophagy by regulating the autophagosome formation. Its activity can promote cellular survival under nutrient-deprived conditions showcasing its role as an important regulatory component in cellular maintenance and stress responses.

Pathways

ULK3 takes part in critical signaling pathways such as the mTOR signaling pathway and the Hedgehog signaling pathway. In the mTOR pathway ULK3 through its kinase activity acts upstream to regulate the activity of the autophagy machinery. It shares a functional relationship with proteins like mTOR and AMPK. In the Hedgehog pathway ULK3 regulates pathway components impacting cellular growth and differentiation processes. This positions ULK3 as a modulator connecting different signaling pathways to maintain cellular homeostasis.

Researchers have reported associations with cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Abnormal ULK3 activity can influence tumor growth and progression particularly in its regulatory role in cell proliferation and survival. Studies also suggest an involvement in neurodegenerative diseases where dysregulation in autophagy processes in which ULK3 plays a part contributes to neuronal cell death. In these contexts ULK3's interactions with proteins like mTOR and Beclin-1 may exacerbate disease progression by altering normal cellular processes.
