Western blot - Human SNCA (Alpha-synuclein) knockout U-87 MG cell lysate (AB283006)

Lane 1 : Wild-type U-87 MG cell lysate 20 μg
Lane 2 : SNCA knockout U-87 MG cell lysate 20 μg
False colour image of Western blot : Anti-Alpha-synuclein antibody [EPR20535] staining at 1/1000 dilution, shown in green; Mouse anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] (ab8245) loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in red. In Western blot, ab212184 was shown to bind specifically to Alpha-synuclein. A band was observed at 16 kDa in wild-type U-87 MG cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in SNCA knockout cell line ab282333 (knockout cell lysate ab283006). To generate this image, wild-type and SNCA knockout U-87 MG 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.

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-synuclein aggregates are critical in the study of neurobiology. These aggregates form by accumulation of alpha-synuclein a protein that exists mostly in neural tissues. Also known as SNCA this protein has a mass of approximately 14 kDa. Researchers frequently find alpha-synuclein in presynaptic terminals of neurons but expression also occurs in the nucleus and cytoplasm of neuronal cells. This protein has a notable interaction with lipid membranes indicating its role in synaptic vesicle regulation.
Biological function summary

Alpha-synuclein manages several cellular processes most notably in neurotransmitter release and vesicle recycling. It does not work alone; it often forms complexes with other proteins like synaptobrevin-2 of the SNARE complex. The formation of these complexes allows for the proper functioning of synaptic vesicles. Alteration in alpha-synuclein's normal function through aggregation disrupts these processes which underlies many neural complications.

Pathways

Many neuronal functions depend on alpha-synuclein's participation in synaptic vesicle pathways. Key pathways include the dopamine metabolic pathway where alpha-synuclein regulates dopamine release. The protein interacts with other synaptic proteins like the SNARE proteins potentially affecting protein kinase pathways. Abnormal aggregation impacts these pathways which can propagate cellular stress and contribute to cellular degeneration.

Alpha-synuclein aggregation correlates strongly with Parkinson's disease and Lewy body dementia. In these conditions aggregates form Lewy bodies protein clusters within neurons that impair their function and encourage neural degradation. The protein interacts with structural proteins like ubiquitin. Ubiquitin involvement highlights the importance of degradation pathways in these disorders as impaired proteostasis due to aggregated alpha-synuclein exacerbates disease progression.
