Western blot - Human H2AFY (mH2A1) knockout HEK-293T cell lysate (AB257463)

Lane 1 : Wild-type HEK-293T cell lysate (20µg)

Lane 2 : H2AFY knockout HEK-293T cell lysate (20µg)

Lanes 1- 2 : Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab183041 observed at 40 kDa. Red - loading control, ab7291 observed at 50 kDa.

ab183041 Anti-mH2A1 antibody [EPR9359(2)] was shown to specifically react with mH2A1 in wild-type HEK-293T cells in western blot. The band observed in the knockout cell line ab266241 (knockout cell lysate ab257463) lane below 40kDa may represent truncated forms and cleaved fragments. This has not been investigated further. Wild-type and mH2A1 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Membrane was blocked for 1 hour at room temperature in 0.1% TBST with 3% non-fat dried milk. ab183041 and Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Loading Control (ab7291) 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.

Supplementary information

MH2A1 also known as macroH2A1 is a histone variant with a distinguished structure characterized by an extended C-terminal macro domain. It has a molecular mass of approximately 42-45 kDa. This histone variant is widely expressed across various tissues showing particularly high levels in differentiated cells. mH2A1 incorporates into chromatin impacting nucleosome stability and chromatin dynamics. Researchers have also identified an isoform known as H2AFY which further highlights the structural complexity and versatile roles of mH2A1 in cellular regulation.
Biological function summary

MH2A1 plays significant roles in chromatin remodeling and gene expression regulation. It is part of the nucleosome replacing canonical histone H2A and influencing the accessibility of chromatin to transcriptional machinery. Through this function mH2A1 can repress or activate gene expression depending on cellular context and interacting partners. Its incorporation into chromatin is associated with the silencing of certain genomic regions such as inactive X chromosome in females with potential implications for epigenetic modifications and cellular differentiation.

Pathways

MH2A1 is notably involved in pathways regulating chromatin organization and cell differentiation. It plays a role in the Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) pathway affecting histone methylation and gene silencing. Furthermore mH2A1 interacts with proteins like EZH2 in PRC2 which carry out methylation at histone H3 on lysine 27. These interactions highlight mH2A1's involvement in maintaining repressive chromatin states and controlling gene expression patterns important for normal cell function.

MH2A1 is connected with cancer and metabolic diseases. Its altered expression has been observed in various cancers where it might impact tumor progression by modulating genes linked to proliferation and differentiation. mH2A1 influences pathways shared with proteins like BRAC1 that are involved in DNA repair processes. Additionally changes in mH2A1 expression are linked to metabolic disorders especially those affecting lipid metabolism and insulin responses suggesting its potential role in regulating metabolic pathways and influencing disease progression.
