Lanes 1 - 3 : Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab85834 observed at 125 kDa. Red - loading control ab7291 (Mouse anti-Alpha Tubulin [DM1A]) observed at 55 kDa.

ab85834 was shown to react with EML4 in wild-type HeLa cells in Western blot with loss of signal observed in EML4 CRISPR-Cas9 edited cell line. Wild-type HeLa and EML4 CRISPR-Cas9 edited cell lysates were subjected to SDS-PAGE. Membranes were blocked in 3 % milk in TBS-T (0.1 % Tween®) before incubation with ab85834 and ab7291 (Mouse anti-Alpha Tubulin [DM1A]) overnight at 4 °C at a 1 in 2000 dilution and a 1 in 20000 dilution respectively. Blots were incubated 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 in 20000 dilution for 1 h at room temperature before imaging.

Supplementary information

EML4 also known as Echinoderm Microtubule-Associated Protein-Like 4 is a microtubule-associated protein with a mass of approximately 120 kDa. This protein stabilizes microtubules and influences their organization during cell division. EML4 is widely expressed in various tissues particularly in the brain where it plays important roles in neuronal function. It interacts with microtubule structures to ensure proper chromosome segregation and mitotic spindle formation.
Biological function summary

EML4 facilitates microtubule stability and dynamics which are critical for intracellular transport and cell division. It is part of the EML family and can form complexes with other microtubule-associated proteins. EML4 helps in the regulation of structural arrangements that are important in both mitosis and meiosis processes. Its function in axonal transport becomes essential for proper neuronal development and maintenance.

Pathways

EML4 is involved in the MAPK/ERK and Ras signaling pathways. Within these pathways EML4 interacts with key proteins like KRAS and BRAF contributing to signal transduction that controls cell proliferation and differentiation. The protein's regulatory role in microtubule dynamics positions it as a link between cellular signaling and cytoskeletal organization.

EML4 is most commonly associated with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). A gene fusion between EML4 and ALK (anaplastic lymphoma kinase) leads to the production of an oncogenic protein that drives tumorigenesis. This EML4-ALK fusion protein alters normal cell signaling pathways promoting cancer cell survival and growth. Research also connects EML4 to neurodegenerative diseases due to its important role in microtubule stabilization within neurons.
