Function

Lysosomal membrane glycoprotein which plays an important role in lysosome biogenesis, lysosomal pH regulation, autophagy and cholesterol homeostasis (PubMed:37390818). Acts as an important regulator of lysosomal lumen pH regulation by acting as a direct inhibitor of the proton channel TMEM175, facilitating lysosomal acidification for optimal hydrolase activity (PubMed:37390818). Also plays an important role in NK-cells cytotoxicity (PubMed:2022921, PubMed:23632890). Mechanistically, participates in cytotoxic granule movement to the cell surface and perforin trafficking to the lytic granule (PubMed:23632890). In addition, protects NK-cells from degranulation-associated damage induced by their own cytotoxic granule content (PubMed:23847195). Presents carbohydrate ligands to selectins (PubMed:7685349). (Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for Lassa virus glycoprotein (PubMed:24970085, PubMed:25972533, PubMed:27605678, PubMed:28448640). Promotes also fusion of the virus with host membrane in less acidic endosomes (PubMed:29295909). (Microbial infection) Supports the FURIN-mediated cleavage of mumps virus fusion protein F by interacting with both FURIN and the unprocessed form but not the processed form of the viral protein F.

LAMP1 (Lysosomal Associated Membrane Protein 1) is a protein that plays a crucial role in the lysosomal membrane's stability and function. It is widely used as a lysosome membrane marker in various cell types. LAMP1 is involved in processes such as autophagy and cellular homeostasis. Dysregulation of LAMP1 has been linked to several diseases, including cancer, where it may contribute to tumor cell metastasis, and neurodegenerative disorders like Parkinson's disease.

Supplementary info

Activity summary

LAMP1 also known as lysosome-associated membrane glycoprotein 1 is an important player within cellular mechanics. It exhibits a molecular weight of approximately 120 kDa. This protein exists abundantly in lysosomal membranes and sometimes in endosomes. LAMP1 operates near most cell types and has a significant presence in immune neuronal and epithelial cells. By maintaining the lysosomal membrane's integrity LAMP1 contributes to cellular homeostasis.

Biological function summary

LAMP1 functions to protect lysosomal membranes from the harsh environment inside the lysosome. It forms part of a protective glycocalyx composed of highly glycosylated proteins supporting lysosomal stability. This protein interacts closely with other lysosome markers and assists in the fusion of vesicles with lysosomes making it fundamental to lysosomal processes. As a lysosome marker LAMP1 helps identify lysosomal compartments during studies involving microscopy and LAMP1 staining.

Pathways

The protein LAMP1 participates in the autophagy and endocytic pathways. It acts collaboratively within the lysosomal degradation route involving proteins like LAMP2 which also supports lysosomal function. LAMP1 influences these pathways by mediating the fusion of autophagosomes or endosomes with lysosomes thereby ensuring efficient breakdown of cellular debris and macromolecules.

Associated diseases and disorders

LAMP1 associates with lysosomal storage disorders and neurodegenerative diseases. The abnormal function or expression of LAMP1 has been linked to conditions such as Niemann-Pick disease and Alzheimer's disease. In these contexts its interaction with proteins like APP (amyloid precursor protein) illustrates its involvement in pathogenic pathways that lead to cellular dysfunction and disease progression. Understanding LAMP1's role may enhance diagnostic and therapeutic approaches pertaining to these disorders.

    Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-LAMP1 antibody - Lysosome Marker (ab24170)

    IHC image of LAMP1 staining in a section of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded normal human kidney* performed on a Leica BONDTM system using the standard protocol B. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20mins. The section was then incubated with ab24170, 1ug/ml, for 15 mins at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer 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.

    Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-LAMP1 antibody - Lysosome Marker (ab24170)

    ab24170 staining LAMP1 in human kidney tissue sections. Staining correlates with lysosomal specificity, particularly in the proximal convoluted tubules where lysosomes are enriched. Formalin/PFA-fixed human kidney tissue sections were incubated with ab24170 (1/200) for 2 hours. Antigen retrieval was performed by heat induction in citrate buffer pH 6. Please see accompanying abreview for additional information.

    Western blot - Anti-LAMP1 antibody - Lysosome Marker (ab24170)

    This blot was produced using a 4-12% Bis-tris gel under the MOPS buffer system. The gel was run at 200V for 50 minutes before being transferred onto a Nitrocellulose membrane at 30V for 70 minutes. The membrane was then blocked for an hour using 3% Milk before being incubated with ab24170 overnight at 4°C. Antibody binding was detected using an anti-rabbit antibody conjugated to HRP, and visualised using ECL development solution ECL Substrate Kit (High Sensitivity) ab133406.

    Abcam recommends using milk as the blocking agent. Abcam welcomes customer feedback and would appreciate any comments regarding this product and the data presented above.
