Immunofluorescence staining of CD20 using ab279298 in Ramos (human Burkitt's lymphoma cell line) cells.

The cells were fixed with 100% methanol (5 min), permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 5 mins 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 ab279298 at 0.2 μg/ml. Cells were then incubated with ab150117, Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed at 1/1000 dilution (shown in green) and nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue).

The secondary only control (bottom row) was not incubated with ab279298 but otherwise processed the same.

Images were acquired with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems TCS SP8) and a single confocal section is shown.

Flow cytometry overlay histogram showing Ramos (human Burkitt's lymphoma cell line) positive cells (left panel) and negative HEK293T (human epithelial cell line from embryonic kidney transformed with large T antigen) cells (right panel) stained with ab279298 (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 containing 10% normal goat serum to block non-specific protein-protein interaction followed by the antibody (ab279298) (1x106 in 100μl at 0.2 μg/ml) for 30 min at 22°C.

The secondary antibody Goat anti-mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488, pre-adsorbed) (ab150177) was used at 1/2000 for 30 min at 22°C.

Isotype control antibody (black line) was mouse IgG1 kappa (ab170190) used at the same concentration and conditions as the primary antibody. Unlabelled sample (blue line) was also used as a control.

Acquisition of >5000 events were collected using a 50 mW Blue laser (488nm) and 525/40 bandpass filter.

This antibody gave a positive signal in Ramos cells fixed with 80% methanol (5 min) / permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100 for 15 min used under the same conditions.

In Western blot, ab279298 was shown to bind specifically to CD20. A band was observed at 33 kDa in wild-type Raji cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in MS4A1 knockout cell line ab273871 (knockout cell lysate ab263259). To generate this image, wild-type and MS4A1 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-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed (ab216772) and Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed (ab216777) at 1/20000 dilution.

Product details

This mouse monoclonal chimeric antibody has been engineered from a RabMAb parent antibody (ab78237). By necessity, some rabbit sequence is retained as part of the variable domain. When multiplexing with other rabbit-derived antibodies, using cross absorbed Fc-reactive secondary antibodies are recommended.

Supplementary information

CD20 also known as MS4A1 or L26 is a membrane-spanning 4-domains subfamily A member 1 protein. It is a non-glycosylated phosphoprotein with a molecular mass of approximately 33-37 kDa. Expressed extensively on the surface of B-cells CD20 plays an important role in B-cell activation and regulation. While CD20 is absent on early pro-B cells and plasma cells its presence increases as B-cells mature. Anti-CD20 antibodies such as 2H7 are commonly used in research and treatment to deplete B-cells due to the target's consistent expression in most stages of B-cell development.
Biological function summary

CD20 contributes significantly to calcium ion transport which is essential for the activation process of B-cells. Although CD20 does not belong to a larger protein complex its role centers around forming a calcium channel that allows a sustained influx of calcium into the B-cells. This influx is important for the signaling pathways that govern B-cell activation proliferation and differentiation impacting the immune response efficacy.

Pathways

CD20 is closely involved in the B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling pathway and the Fc gamma R-mediated phagocytosis pathway. These pathways play vital roles in adaptive immunity and immune response modulation. CD20's interaction with proteins like PI3K during BCR signaling enhances receptor-mediated cellular signals subsequently influencing downstream effectors involved in cell growth and survival of B-cells.

CD20 is strongly linked to certain blood cancers and autoimmune diseases including non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and rheumatoid arthritis. These conditions often exploit aberrant B-cell activity or count. CD20's expression on malignant B-cells in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma makes it an effective target for monoclonal antibody therapies such as rituximab an anti-CD20 antibody. Additionally CD20-targeted therapies can help deplete pathogenic B-cells in rheumatoid arthritis highlighting the protein's relevance in disease treatment.

Target data

B-lymphocyte-specific membrane protein that plays a role in the regulation of cellular calcium influx necessary for the development, differentiation, and activation of B-lymphocytes (PubMed : 12920111, PubMed : 3925015, PubMed : 7684739). Functions as a store-operated calcium (SOC) channel component promoting calcium influx after activation by the B-cell receptor/BCR (PubMed : 12920111, PubMed : 18474602, PubMed : 7684739).
