Flow Cytometry (Intracellular) - Anti-AICDA antibody [5G9] (AB252813)
Intracellular flow cytometric analysis of 4% paraformaldehyde fixed 90% methanol permeabilized K-562 (human chronic myelogenous leukemia lymphoblast, Left) / Ramos (human Burkitt's lymphoma B lymphocyte, Right) cells labelling AICDA with ab252813 at0.316μg/mL (Red) compared with a rat monoclonal IgG (Black) isotype control and an unlabelled control (cells without incubation with primary antibody and secondary antibody) (Blue). A Goat anti rat IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488, ab150157) at 1/2000 dilution was used as the secondary antibody. Negative control : K-562.

Western blot - Anti-AICDA antibody [5G9] (AB252813)
False colour image of Western blot : Anti-AICDA antibody [5G9] staining at 1.264 ug/ml, shown in green; Rabbit Anti-GAPDH antibody [EPR16891] (ab181602) loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in red. In Western blot, ab252813 was shown to bind specifically to AICDA. A band was observed at 22 kDa in wild-type Raji cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in AICDA knockout cell line ab277185 (knockout cell lysate ab277227). To generate this image, wild-type and AICDA knockout Raji 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-Rat IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed (ab253031) and Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L 680RD at 1/20000 dilution.

Biological function summary
AICDA plays an important role in the adaptive immune system by facilitating the diversification of antibodies. It does not appear to function as part of a larger protein complex but operates independently to induce mutations in variable regions of immunoglobulin genes. This activity enables B cells to produce antibodies with higher affinity and different isotypes important for an effective immune defense system. AICDA’s function ensures the generation of diverse antibody repertoires allowing the immune system to effectively target a wide range of pathogens.
Pathways
AICDA is integral to the immunoglobulin gene diversification pathway. It initiates somatic hypermutation and class switch recombination by deaminating cytosine residues in the DNA of immunoglobulin genes. This action relates AICDA to other proteins involved in DNA repair and error-prone replication such as uracil-DNA glycosylase (UNG) and the mismatch repair proteins like MSH2 and MSH6. AICDA's deamination activity triggers the recruitment of these proteins to introduce mutations and remove uracil residues facilitating the generation of antibody diversity.
