Activity summary

Coilin also known as Coilin protein or its gene name COIL is a nuclear phosphoprotein with a mass of approximately 62 kDa. It plays a mechanical role in the formation and maintenance of Cajal bodies which are subnuclear structures involved in various RNA processes. Coilin is mainly expressed in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells including a high expression in HeLa cells where its localization to Cajal bodies can be easily studied with tools like Alexa Fluor 488. Occasionally references may be made to terms like 'HeLa coil' which pertain to specific structural features noted in these contexts.

Biological function summary

This protein facilitates the organization and biogenesis of nuclear bodies associated with RNA processing and small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs) assembly. Coilin operates as part of a larger complex involving several other proteins that interact within Cajal bodies. These nuclear bodies serve as sites where components necessary for RNA processing are concentrated. Coilin aids in the trafficking and modification of snRNP elements which are essential for pre-mRNA splicing.

Pathways

Coilin affects RNA metabolism and processing notably within the spliceosome assembly pathway and in snRNP biogenesis. The pathways include interactions with proteins such as SMN (Survival of Motor Neuron) protein which links to spinal muscular atrophy-related processes. Additionally Coilin contributes to the broader framework of nucleic acid processing systems impacting the outcome of RNA transcription and modification through its regulatory roles.

Associated diseases and disorders

Coilin shows connections to neurological conditions and cancer. For instance alterations or dysregulation in Coilin expression can correlate with spinal muscular atrophy where it associates with the SMN protein if there are disruptions in Cajal body integrity. Furthermore links exist with certain cancers where the mismanagement of RNA processes influenced by Coilin and its interaction partners like PDEdelta can lead to aberrant cell behaviors and tumor progression. Coilin’s involvement in such diseases makes it an appealing target for therapeutic exploration reflected in ongoing cancer research and therapeutic developments.

    ab196714 staining Coilin 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 ab196714 at a 1/100 dilution (shown in red) and Alexa Fluor® 488 Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Microtubule Marker ab195887, Mouse monoclonal to alpha Tubulin (Alexa Fluor® 488), at a 1/250 dilution (shown in green). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue).

    Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8).

    This product also gave a positive signal under the same testing conditions in HeLa cells fixed with 100% methanol (5 min).
