Western blot - Anti-GRX2 antibody (AB191292)

Electrophoresis was performed on a 5-20% SDS-PAGE gel at 70V (Stacking gel) / 90V (Resolving gel) for 2-3 hours. After electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane at 150 mA for 50-90 minutes. Blocked the membrane with 5% non-fat milk/TBS for 1.5 hour at RT. The membrane was incubated with ab191292 at 0.5 µg/mL overnight at 4°C, then washed with TBS-0.1%Tween 3 times with 5 minutes each and probed with a goat anti-rabbit IgG-HRP secondary antibody at a dilution of 1/5000 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal is developed using an Enhanced Chemiluminescent detection (ECL) kit with Tanon 5200 system. A specific band was detected for GLRX2 at approximately 18 kDa. The expected band size for GLRX2 is at 18 kDa.

Supplementary information

The target GRX2 also commonly known as GLRX2 is a human protein encoded by the GLRX2 gene. GRX2 functions as a glutaredoxin a type of enzyme involved in the process of reducing disulfide bonds in proteins which is essential for cell redox regulation. The protein has a molecular mass of approximately 16 kDa and primarily resides in the mitochondria and cytoplasm of cells. Its expression occurs in various tissues with significant levels in the heart brain and skeletal muscle indicating its broad functional roles across different organ systems.
Biological function summary

The GRX2 protein plays a critical role in maintaining cellular redox balance by facilitating the reversible oxidation of protein cysteines. This is important for protecting cells against oxidative stress. GRX2 does not function as an isolated entity but instead forms part of larger multi-protein complexes interacting with other enzymes to regulate cellular homeostasis. These interactions help to protect cells from oxidative damage promote protein folding and regenerate other antioxidants.

Pathways

GRX2 holds a significant position in the redox regulation and antioxidant pathways. It partners with thioredoxin reductase and glutathione systems to mediate these pathways and manage cellular oxidative stress. The protein's activity is closely tied to glutathione with GRX2 often acting in synergy with glutathione to reduce complex oxidized protein thiols. This collaboration is vital in the oxidative stress response where the pathway elements must efficiently counterbalance oxidative challenges.

GRX2's function links it to several oxidative stress-related conditions including neurodegenerative diseases and cardiovascular disorders. In neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson's disease GRX2's ability to combat oxidative stress is compromised leading to neuronal damage. Additionally the protein's interaction with other redox regulatory proteins such as thioredoxin suggests interconnected roles in the progression of these disorders. Cardiovascular diseases also involve GRX2 due to its essential function in maintaining cardiovascular integrity under environmental and metabolic oxidative stress.

Target data

Glutathione-dependent oxidoreductase that facilitates the maintenance of mitochondrial redox homeostasis upon induction of apoptosis by oxidative stress. Involved in response to hydrogen peroxide and regulation of apoptosis caused by oxidative stress. Acts as a very efficient catalyst of monothiol reactions because of its high affinity for protein glutathione-mixed disulfides. Can receive electrons not only from glutathione (GSH), but also from thioredoxin reductase supporting both monothiol and dithiol reactions. Efficiently catalyzes both glutathionylation and deglutathionylation of mitochondrial complex I, which in turn regulates the superoxide production by the complex. Overexpression decreases the susceptibility to apoptosis and prevents loss of cardiolipin and cytochrome c release.
