Western blot - Human VAMP8 (EDB) knockout HEK-293T cell line (AB266293)

False colour image of Western blot : Anti-VAMP8/EDB antibody [EP2629Y] staining at 1/10000 dilution, shown in green; Mouse anti-Alpha Tubulin [DM1A] (ab7291) loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in red. In Western blot, ab76021 was shown to bind specifically to VAMP8/EDB. A band was observed at 11 kDa in wild-type HEK-293T cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in VAMP8 knockout cell line ab266293 (knockout cell lysate ab257791). To generate this image, wild-type and VAMP8 knockout HEK-293T cell lysates were analysed. First, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 3 % 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 (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed (ab216776) at 1/20000 dilution.

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

VAMP8 also known as synaptobrevin-like protein 2 or EDB is a SNARE protein with a mass of approximately 12 kDa. This protein is widely expressed in many tissues including the lung pancreas and kidney. It plays an important role in vesicle-mediated transport where it facilitates the fusion of vesicles with target membranes as part of a larger protein complex. By participating in these membrane fusion processes the protein contributes to cellular trafficking.
Biological function summary

VAMP8 engages in vesicular transport mechanisms that support exocytosis and endocytosis processes. It forms part of the SNARE complex which is important for merging vesicles with their target compartments. Through this association VAMP8 aids the release of substances such as hormones and digestive enzymes from the cells. This process is critical for maintaining the balance and function of cellular activities across different tissues.

Pathways

VAMP8 functions in the context of the trafficking pathways that include the endocytic and exocytic pathways. It is a participant in regulated exocytosis where it interacts with other SNARE proteins like syntaxin and SNAP-25 ensuring precise membrane fusion events occur. These pathways ensure proper cellular communication and debris clearance underlining the importance of VAMP8 in general cellular homeostasis.

VAMP8 is associated with conditions like inflammatory diseases and certain exocytic disorders. Researchers have observed its involvement in conditions like pancreatitis where its regulatory function in enzyme secretion becomes apparent. VAMP8 also has connections with other disease-related proteins such as those in the SNARE family which contribute to altered secretory pathways and inflammation. Understanding the precise mechanisms of VAMP8 helps in developing therapeutic approaches to managing these disorders.
