Flow Cytometry (Intracellular) - Anti-ENSA antibody [EPR8008(2)] - BSA and Azide free (AB238993)

Intracellular flow cytometric analysis of K562 cells labeling ENSAwith ab180513 at 1/70 dilution. Goat anti rabbit IgG (FITC) at 1/75 dilution was used as the secondary antibody. Cells were fixed in 2% paraformaldehyde.

This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol and sodium azide (ab180513).

Supplementary information

ENSA also known as alpha-endosulfine is a protein with a mass of approximately 13 kDa. ENSA is part of the endosulfine family and finds expression in various tissues including the brain and pancreas. This protein primarily acts as an endogenous ligand for sulfonylurea receptor and has a role in regulating potassium channels. Its structural and functional characteristics highlight its importance in cellular activities.
Biological function summary

ENSA functions as a modulator of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) a critical enzyme in controlling cell growth and division. ENSA by inhibiting the catalytic activity of PP2A influences key regulatory mechanisms in cells. It also interacts with ARPP-19 a protein that enhances its inhibitory action contributing to the regulation of cellular processes such as mitosis and signal transduction.

Pathways

ENSA plays a significant role in the mTOR signaling pathway a major regulator of cell growth metabolism and survival. In this pathway ENSA interacts with various proteins including the mTOR itself to modulate the phosphorylation state of downstream targets affecting cellular responses to nutrient availability. Additionally ENSA is involved in the regulation of glucose metabolism through its interaction in the AMPK signaling pathway contributing to energy homeostasis in cells.

ENSA demonstrates a connection to metabolic disorders such as type 2 diabetes by modulating insulin secretion and action. ENSA impacts the glucose regulatory processes through its association with proteins like the sulfonylurea receptor important in insulin release from pancreatic beta cells. Moreover ENSA's involvement in the dysregulation of cell growth pathways relates to certain cancers indicating its potential role in tumorigenesis through its interaction with PP2A and associated signaling components.

Target data

Protein phosphatase inhibitor that specifically inhibits protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) during mitosis. When phosphorylated at Ser-67 during mitosis, specifically interacts with PPP2R2D (PR55-delta) and inhibits its activity, leading to inactivation of PP2A, an essential condition to keep cyclin-B1-CDK1 activity high during M phase (By similarity). Also acts as a stimulator of insulin secretion by interacting with sulfonylurea receptor (ABCC8), thereby preventing sulfonylurea from binding to its receptor and reducing K(ATP) channel currents.
