Western blot - Anti-DMT1 antibody [4C6] (AB55735)
Western blot : Mouse Monoclonal[4C6] to DMT1 ab55735 staining at 1/1000 dilution, shown in green; Rabbit anti GAPDH (ab181602) loading control staining at 1/20,000 dilution, shown in magenta. A band was observed at 80 kDa in Wild-type A549 cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in SLC11A2 knockout A549 cell line (ab326025). To generate this image, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 3pc 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 800CW & Goat anti-Rabbit 680RD at 1/20,000 dilution.

Biological function summary
DMT1 facilitates cellular uptake of iron important for oxygen transport and DNA synthesis. As part of its function DMT1 operates independently not as a component of a larger protein complex enabling it to transport metal ions across cell membranes directly. This process ensures that cells receive necessary ions for their metabolic activities and energy production aiding in cellular homeostasis.
Pathways
DMT1 integrates into important biological systems like the iron metabolism pathway and the manganese transport pathway. It works alongside ferritin a protein responsible for storing iron within cells to regulate iron availability and prevent toxicity. Similarly its role in the manganese transport pathway helps maintain manganese homeostasis which protease enzymes and neurotransmitter synthesis rely on.
