Western blot - Human GLA (Galactosidase alpha) knockout HeLa cell lysate (AB257449)

Lane 1 : Wild-type HeLa cell lysate (20 μg)

Lane 2 : GLA knockout HeLa cell lysate (20 μg)

Lanes 1-2 : Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab168341 observed at 49 kDa. Red - loading control ab8245 observed at 37 kDa.

ab168341 Anti-Galactosidase alpha antibody [EP5828(2)] was shown to specifically react with Galactosidase alpha in wild-type HeLa cells. Loss of signal was observed when knockout cell line ab265563 (knockout cell lysate ab257449) was used. Wild-type and Galactosidase alpha knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab168341 and Anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] - Loading Control (ab8245) were incubated overnight at 4°C at 1 in 1000 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.

Abcam has not and does not intend to apply for the REACH Authorisation of customers' uses of products that contain European Authorisation list (Annex XIV) substances.
It is the responsibility of our customers to check the necessity of application of REACH Authorisation, and any other relevant authorisations, for their intended uses.

Lysate preparation: Our lysates are made using RIPA buffer to which we add a protease inhibitor cocktail and phosphatase inhibitor cocktail (ratio: 300:100:10). This means that the protein of interest is denatured. If you require a native form of the protein please use the live cell version. Please refer to our lysis protocol for further details on how our lysates are prepared.

User storage instructions: Lyophilizate may be stored at 4°C. After reconstitution, store at -20°C for short-term storage or -80°C for long-term storage.

Supplementary information

Alpha-galactosidase also known as alpha-D-galactosidase or A-galactosidase is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of terminal alpha-galactosyl moieties from glycolipids and glycoproteins. It has a molecular mass of approximately 50000 Daltons. This enzyme is expressed in various tissues including the liver heart and kidneys. It functions by efficiently removing alpha-galactose residues from target molecules a process important for maintaining cellular function.
Biological function summary

The role of alpha-galactosidase involves the breakdown of complex carbohydrates particularly those containing alpha-galactosidic bonds. It does not operate as part of a complex but rather functions independently to cleave these specific bonds in glycolipids and glycoproteins. This activity is critical for degrading langerin and other gangliosides preventing the accumulation of these molecules in the lysosomes. By continuously performing this function alpha-galactosidase maintains glycosphingolipid homeostasis ensuring efficient cellular metabolism.

Pathways

The involvement of alpha-galactosidase in metabolic and lysosomal catabolic pathways is significant. One critical pathway is the glycolipid metabolism pathway where it acts alongside related enzymes such as beta-galactosidase. It also participates in the lysosomal degradation pathway working in conjunction with other lysosomal enzymes to prevent substrate buildup. The interaction with enzymes like lysosomal hydrolases ensures the proper breakdown of complex molecules into simpler ones that cells can utilize or excrete.

Defects in the alpha-galactosidase enzyme lead to the lysosomal storage disorder known as Fabry disease. This genetic disorder causes the accumulation of globotriaosylceramide due to deficient alpha-galactosidase activity. Another disorder associated with malfunctioning alpha-galactosidase is cardiac complications due to tissue storage of glycolipids. In both cases the lack of enzyme activity disrupts cellular and tissue functions linking alpha-galactosidase to clinical symptoms seen in these disorders.
