Overlay histogram showing SHSY5Y cells stained with ab225196 (red line). The cells were fixed with 4% formaldehyde (10 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100 for 15 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum to block non-specific protein-protein interactions followed by the antibody (ab225196, 1/50000 dilution) for 30 min at 22°C.

Isotype control antibody (black line) was Rabbit IgG (monoclonal) Alexa Fluor® 647 (ab199093) used at the same concentration and conditions as the primary antibody. Unlabelled sample (blue line) was also used as a control.

Acquisition of >5,000 events were collected using a 40 mW Red laser (640nm) and 670/14 bandpass filter.

Supplementary information

Zic2 also called Zinc finger protein of cerebellum 2 represents a transcription factor notable for its role in the regulation of gene expression. Mechanically Zic2 binds to DNA sequences via its zinc finger domains facilitating transcriptional activation or repression depending on the context. This protein has an approximate molecular mass of 60 kDa and exhibits expression mainly in the developing central nervous system. Zic2 shows high levels of expression in postmitotic neurons and various embryonic tissues indicating its involvement in central neural developmental processes.
Biological function summary

Zic2 impacts the differentiation and proliferation of neural progenitor cells. Zic2 functions as part of a transcriptional regulatory complex collaborating with other partners to control genes necessary for neurodevelopment. Its activity supports the specification of neuronal identity and axonal pathfinding. Studies demonstrate its important role in guiding axons to their correct targets a function integral during the formation of neural circuits. Zic2-mediated transcriptional networks are essential for accurate neuronal patterning in the central nervous system.

Pathways

Several interactions revolving around Zic2 play essential roles. Zic2 is involved in the Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) signaling pathway where it contributes to the transcriptional response important for patterning activities. Within the Shh pathway Zic2 interacts with downstream components like Gli proteins which modulate target gene expression based on signal gradient. Additionally Zic2 participates in the Wnt signaling pathway where it influences cell fate determination and tissue polarity. Such pathways highlight its part in developmental processes and cellular differentiation.

Mutations or dysregulation of Zic2 often associate with congenital malformations such as holoprosencephaly and mirror movement disorder. These disorders arise from disrupted neural development reflecting Zic2's key roles in morphogenesis and patterning. Both conditions involve abnormal neurodevelopment where altered Zic2 interactions with proteins such as Gli3 result in impaired signaling cascades. Understanding these connections helps clarify Zic2's contribution to pathological states offering insights into potential therapeutic targets.

Target data

Acts as a transcriptional activator or repressor. Plays important roles in the early stage of organogenesis of the CNS. Activates the transcription of the serotonin transporter SERT in uncrossed ipsilateral retinal ganglion cells (iRGCs) to refine eye-specific projections in primary visual targets. Its transcriptional activity is repressed by MDFIC. Involved in the formation of the ipsilateral retinal projection at the optic chiasm midline. Drives the expression of EPHB1 on ipsilaterally projecting growth cones. Binds to the minimal GLI-consensus sequence 5'-TGGGTGGTC-3'. Associates to the basal SERT promoter region from ventrotemporal retinal segments of retinal embryos.
