Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-Emerin antibody (AB40688)
ICC/IF image of ab40688 stained human HeLa cells. The cells were methanol fixed (5 min), permabilised in TBS-T (20 min) and incubated with the antibody (ab40688, 1μg/ml) for 1h at room temperature. 1%BSA / 10% normal serum / 0.3M glycine was used to quench autofluorescence and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red). DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue).

Immunoprecipitation - Anti-Emerin antibody (AB40688)
Emerin was immunoprecipitated using 0.5mg Hela whole cell extract, 5µg of Rabbit polyclonal to Emerin and 50µl of protein G magnetic beads (+). No antibody was added to the control (-).
The antibody was incubated under agitation with Protein G beads for 10min, Hela whole cell extract lysate diluted in RIPA buffer was added to each sample and incubated for a further 10min under agitation.
Proteins were eluted by addition of 40µl SDS loading buffer and incubated for 10min at 70oC; 10µl of each sample was separated on a SDS PAGE gel, transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane, blocked with 5% BSA and probed with ab40688.
Secondary : Clean-Blot IP Detection Reagent (HRP) at 1/500 dilution.
Band : 33kDa; Emerin;non specific bands - 52 and 60kDa : We are unsure as to the identity of this extra band.

ab40688 Anti-Emerin antibody was shown to specifically react with Emerin in wild-type HEK-293T cells. Loss of signal was observed when knockout cell line ab266336 (knockout cell lysate ab257423) was used. Wild-type and Emerin knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab40688 and Anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] - Loading Control (ab8245) were incubated overnight at 4°C at 1 and 1 in 20000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preadsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preadsorbed (ab216776) secondary antibodies at 1 in 20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

Lanes 1 - 3 : Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab40688 observed at 35 kDa. Red - loading control, ab9484, observed at 37 kDa.
ab40688 was shown to recognize Emerin in wild-type HAP1 cells as signal was lost at the expected MW in Emerin knockout cells. Additional cross-reactive bands were observed in the wild-type and knockout cells. Wild-type and Emerin knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab40688 and ab9484 (Mouse anti-GAPDH loading control) were incubated overnight at 4°C at 1 μg/ml and 1/20000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed ab216773 and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed ab216776 secondary antibodies at 1/10000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

Biological function summary
Emerin serves as an important component in mechanical signal transduction pathways. It interacts with barrier-to-autointegration factor (BAF) forming an important part of the nuclear envelope complex. This protein complex helps in chromatin organization and regulation of gene expression. Emerin influences nuclear assembly and shape and modulates chromatin attachment to the nuclear envelope playing an important role in nuclear processes.
Pathways
Emerin participates actively in the Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy pathway and affects the interplay of other nuclear lamina components like lamin A/C. It stabilizes chromatin structure and cooperates with proteins such as nesprins and SUN proteins to regulate nuclear-cytoskeletal interactions. Emerin's involvement in these pathways highlights its role in maintaining mechanical resilience and functionality of the nuclear envelope impacting gene expression dynamics.
