Lane 1 : Wild-type HeLa cell lysate 20 ug

Lanes 1 - 4 : Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab275745 observed at 40 kDa. Red - loading control, ab8245 (Mouse anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5]) observed at 37 kDa.#ab275745 was shown to react with Retinoic Acid Receptor alpha in wild-type HeLa cells in western blot. The bands observed in RARA CRISPR-Cas9 edited cell line ab265176 (RARA CRISPR-Cas9 edited cell lysate ab257629) below 40 kDa may represent truncated forms and cleaved fragments. This has not been investigated further. Wild-type and RARA CRISPR-Cas9 edited HeLa cell lysates were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Membranes were blocked in 3 % milk in TBS-T (0.1 % Tween®) before incubation with ab275745 and ab8245 (Mouse anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5]) overnight at 4°C at a 1 in 1000 dilution and a 1 in 20000 dilution respectively. Blots were incubated with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed (ab216776) secondary antibodies at 1 in 20000 dilution for 1 h at room temperature before imaging.

Supplementary information

Retinoic Acid Receptor alpha (RARA) a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily functions as a transcription factor activated by retinoic acid. Commonly referenced in literature RARA has an approximate molecular mass of 50 kDa. It is expressed in a variety of tissues including the liver the lung and the immune system. By forming heterodimers with retinoid X receptors RARA regulates the transcription of genes linked to cell differentiation proliferation and apoptosis.
Biological function summary

RARA plays an essential role in mediating the effects of retinoic acid in the body. It is part of a larger receptor complex that interacts with co-regulators to modulate gene expression. This process is significant for embryonic development and the maintenance of normal physiological functions. Through its action RARA contributes to the proper development of organs and is critical for maintaining immune homeostasis and enabling the cellular response to environmental changes.

Pathways

RARA's activity impacts important signaling routes such as the retinoic acid signaling pathway and the Wnt signaling pathway. It collaborates with proteins like retinoid X receptors (RXRs) and other nuclear receptors to influence gene expression processes. These pathways maintain cellular differentiation and tissue homeostasis demonstrating RARA's integrative role in cellular signaling and communication.

RARA's dysregulation has been linked to acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) and some autoimmune diseases. In APL aberrant fusion proteins involving RARA disrupt normal transcriptional regulation leading to malignant transformation. Additionally the interaction of RARA with proteins such as promyelocytic leukemia protein (PML) further influences the disease's development. Research on these associations highlights the therapeutic potential of targeting RARA activities for disease intervention and treatment strategies.
