Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - HRP Anti-Sarcomeric Alpha Actinin antibody [EP2529Y] (AB314407)

IHC image of Sarcomeric Alpha Actinin staining in a section of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded normal human heart*. Performed on a Leica BOND™ system. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with EDTA buffer (pH 9.0, epitope retrieval solution 2) for 20mins. The section was then incubated with ab314407 at 10 µg/ml, for 15 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated ABC system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX. The inset secondary-only control image is taken from an identical assay without primary antibody. For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated) customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, primary antibody concentration and antibody incubation times. *Tissue obtained from the Human Research Tissue Bank, supported by the NIHR Cambridge Biomedical Research Centre.

Western blot - HRP Anti-Sarcomeric Alpha Actinin antibody [EP2529Y] (AB314407)

Western blot : HRP Anti-Sarcomeric Alpha Actinin antibody [EP2529Y] (ab314407) staining at 1/5000 dilution, shown in black; Mouse anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] (ab8245) loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in red. In Western blot, ab314407 was shown to bind specifically to ACTN2. First, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 5 % 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 antibody Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L 680RD at 1/20000 dilution for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times before development with a high-sensitivity ECL substrate kit and imaged with 2 minutes 30 seconds exposure time.

Supplementary information

Sarcomeric Alpha Actinin often referred to as alpha-actinin or A-actinin is a protein that functions mechanically as a cross-linker of actin filaments in the sarcomere. It plays a critical role in organizing the actin cytoskeleton providing structural integrity and facilitating muscle contraction. The protein typically has a molecular mass of approximately 100 kDa. It is expressed in a variety of tissues including skeletal and cardiac muscle where it establishes the architecture of the Z-disc by anchoring actin filaments.
Biological function summary

Sarcomeric alpha actinin associates with multiple proteins to form a complex that coordinates muscle function. It not only serves as a structural component but also participates in signaling processes influencing muscle repair and growth. Alpha actinin connects to other cytoskeletal proteins and adaptors coordinating with integrin pathways to transmit external mechanical signals into cellular responses. The ability of alpha actinin to interact with a range of proteins like filamin and spectrin enhances its role in maintaining cellular architecture.

Pathways

Alpha actinin is critical in both the integrin and dystrophin-glycoprotein complex pathways facilitating signal transduction and maintaining muscle stability. Its interaction with actin filaments is important for pathways involving cell adhesion and motility. Within these pathways actin-related proteins such as ACTN2 and titin partner with alpha actinin to sustain cellular structure and function during dynamic processes including muscle contraction and relaxation.

Mutations or defects in alpha actinin have implications in muscular dystrophy and cardiomyopathy. These conditions often involve disruptions in the muscle's structural framework and mechanical signaling where alpha actinin's interaction with dystrophin becomes significant. Additionally such disorders may showcase altered connectivity between alpha actinin and spectrin further affecting muscle integrity and function in pathological conditions.
