Western blot - Anti-MEF2C antibody [EPR19089-202] - BSA and Azide free (AB231859)
False colour image of Western blot : Anti-MEF2C antibody [EPR19089-202] - ChIP Grade staining at 1/1000 dilution, shown in green; Mouse anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] (ab8245) loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in red. In Western blot, ab211493 was shown to bind specifically to MEF2C. A band was observed at 55/60 kDa in wild-type THP-1 cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in MEF2C knockout cell line (ab313739). To generate this image, wild-type and MEF2C knockout THP-1 cell lysates were analysed. First, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 3 % 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 antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times then imaged. Secondary antibodies used were Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L 800CW and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L 680RD at 1/20000 dilution.
This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS, BSA, glycerol, and sodium azide (ab211493).

Biological function summary
The MEF2C protein is essential in cellular differentiation and development. MEF2C is not part of a complex but interacts with other cofactors and regulatory proteins to fulfill its roles. It is important in the development of cardiac and skeletal muscle cells and plays a significant role in neurogenesis and neuronal connectivity in the central nervous system. This protein's precise regulation ensures proper development and function of these tissues and organs.
Pathways
MEF2C influences cellular signaling through the MAPK/ERK and calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase pathways. In the MAPK/ERK pathway MEF2C modulates gene expression in response to external stimuli interacting with proteins like ERK1/2. In the calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinase pathway MEF2C plays a role in calcium signaling networks impacting neuronal plasticity and survival. These pathways highlight MEF2C’s involvement in muscle and brain function.
