ab223400 staining EPF in HeLa cells. The cells were fixed with 4% formaldehyde (10 min), permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 5 minutes and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated overnight at +4°C with ab223400 at 1/100 dilution (shown in Green) and ab195889, Mouse monoclonal to alpha Tubulin (Alexa Fluor® 594), at 1/250 dilution (shown in red). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue).

Supplementary information

EPF also known as Embryo Paracrine Factor is a protein with a mass of approximately 18-20 kDa. This protein primarily expresses in embryonic tissues and certain adult tissues with regeneration and repair abilities. EPF functions as a signaling molecule and plays a role in cellular communication influencing different cellular behaviors like proliferation differentiation and migration.
Biological function summary

EPF impacts multiple cellular processes during embryogenesis and tissue regeneration. It does not function as a part of a larger protein complex but interacts directly with surface receptors to initiate signal transduction pathways. EPF activities help in regulating cell cycle transitions balancing cell growth with apoptosis for proper tissue formation and healing. By mediating these activities EPF is critical for normal development and efficient repair processes.

Pathways

Several molecular networks engage with EPF to exert its influence. One of the primary pathways involving EPF is the Wnt signaling pathway which contributes to the regulation of gene expression cellular growth and differentiation. Through this pathway EPF interacts with proteins like β-catenin. Additionally EPF also associates with the PI3K/Akt pathway which further highlights its involvement in controlling cellular survival and growth dynamics.

Abnormal EPF function is linked with cancer progression and regenerative disorders. Dysregulation of EPF can lead to uncontrolled cell proliferation and has been observed in certain cancers such as colorectal cancer. Furthermore impaired EPF signaling might affect wound healing processes leading to chronic wounds. During these disease processes EPF interacts with other important signaling molecules such as p53 in cancer to influence disease outcomes.

Target data

Co-chaperonin implicated in mitochondrial protein import and macromolecular assembly. Together with Hsp60, facilitates the correct folding of imported proteins. May also prevent misfolding and promote the refolding and proper assembly of unfolded polypeptides generated under stress conditions in the mitochondrial matrix (PubMed : 11422376, PubMed : 1346131, PubMed : 7912672). The functional units of these chaperonins consist of heptameric rings of the large subunit Hsp60, which function as a back-to-back double ring. In a cyclic reaction, Hsp60 ring complexes bind one unfolded substrate protein per ring, followed by the binding of ATP and association with 2 heptameric rings of the co-chaperonin Hsp10. This leads to sequestration of the substrate protein in the inner cavity of Hsp60 where, for a certain period of time, it can fold undisturbed by other cell components. Synchronous hydrolysis of ATP in all Hsp60 subunits results in the dissociation of the chaperonin rings and the release of ADP and the folded substrate protein (Probable).
