Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-Myogenin antibody [F5D] - BSA and Azide free (AB264517)

Immunofluorescence staining of Myogenin using ab1835 in ioSkeletal Myocytes - Human iPSC-Derived Skeletal Myocytes (ab277612), which were differentiated for 3 days post induction.

The cells were fixed with 4% formaldehyde (10 min), permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Tween for 5 mins and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated overnight at +4°C with ab1835 at 1 μg/mL and ab6046, rabbit polyclonal to beta Tubulin, at 1/1000 dilution. Cells were then incubated with ab150117, Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed at 1/1000 dilution (shown in green) and ab150088, Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 594) preadsorbed at 1/1000 dilution (shown in red). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue).

Image was acquired with a high-content analyser (Operetta CLS, Perkin Elmer) and a maximum intensity projection of confocal sections is shown. Gamma is adjusted to 1.5 in all channels.

The antibody ab1835 gave comparable results using MeOH fixation (100%, 5 min).

This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation containing PBS and sodium azide (ab1835).

IHC image of Myogenin staining in a section of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded normal Human Rhabdomyosarcoma* performed on a Leica BOND™ system using the standard Protocol F. 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 ab1835, 5μg/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. *Tissue obtained from the Human Research Tissue Bank, supported by the NIHR Cambridge Biomedical Research Centre.

Adult mouse muscle section stained with ab1835. The animals were perfused with 4% PFA. The sections were incubated in 5% normal donkey serum in 0.1% PBS- and triton X100 for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The sections were then incubated with the antibody (ab1835, 1μg/ml) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody Alexa Fluor® 568 donkey anti-mouse IgG (H+L) (red) was used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h.

Supplementary information

Myogenin also known as MYOG is a muscle-specific transcription factor that plays an important role in the regulation of muscle differentiation and development. It belongs to the MyoD family of basic helix-loop-helix proteins. Myogenin has a molecular weight of approximately 34 to 39 kDa. It is typically expressed in skeletal muscle tissues aiding in the transition from proliferating myoblasts to differentiated myotubes. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) methods often use myogenin antibodies like the 'myogenin anticuerpo' and 'F5D' to identify myogenin expression within tissue samples facilitating the understanding of muscle tissue organization and development.
Biological function summary

Myogenin functions in controlling the transcription of muscle-specific genes that are essential during myogenesis. This transcription factor forms heterodimers with E-proteins becoming part of DNA-binding complexes that activate the transcription of muscle-specific genes. Myogenin's presence is critical during muscle cell fusion and maturation signifying its importance in proper muscle tissue formation and maintenance. Myogenin staining is often used as a technique to study muscle differentiation in various experimental settings.

Pathways

Myogenin is integrated into the myogenic regulatory network where it activates genes involved in muscle fiber maturation. It participates in the MyoD regulatory pathway working alongside other myogenic regulatory factors like MyoD Myf5 and MRF4. These proteins create a coordinated network ensuring efficient muscle cell differentiation and growth. The cross-talk between myogenin and these factors highlights its role in the intricate web of gene regulation necessary for muscle development.

The altered expression or mutation of the myogenin gene has potential implications in muscular dystrophies and myopathies. For instance disruptions in myogenin activity can lead to impaired muscle repair and regeneration contributing to the pathology of conditions such as rhabdomyosarcoma. Within these contexts myogenin associates with other proteins like MyoD whose expression might also be altered further accentuating the disruption in normal muscle differentiation processes during disease states.

Target data

Acts as a transcriptional activator that promotes transcription of muscle-specific target genes and plays a role in muscle differentiation, cell cycle exit and muscle atrophy. Essential for the development of functional embryonic skeletal fiber muscle differentiation. However is dispensable for postnatal skeletal muscle growth; phosphorylation by CAMK2G inhibits its transcriptional activity in respons to muscle activity. Required for the recruitment of the FACT complex to muscle-specific promoter regions, thus promoting gene expression initiation. During terminal myoblast differentiation, plays a role as a strong activator of transcription at loci with an open chromatin structure previously initiated by MYOD1. Together with MYF5 and MYOD1, co-occupies muscle-specific gene promoter core regions during myogenesis. Cooperates also with myocyte-specific enhancer factor MEF2D and BRG1-dependent recruitment of SWI/SNF chromatin-remodeling enzymes to alter chromatin structure at myogenic late gene promoters. Facilitates cell cycle exit during terminal muscle differentiation through the up-regulation of miR-20a expression, which in turn represses genes involved in cell cycle progression. Binds to the E-box containing (E1) promoter region of the miR-20a gene. Plays also a role in preventing reversal of muscle cell differentiation. Contributes to the atrophy-related gene expression in adult denervated muscles. Induces fibroblasts to differentiate into myoblasts.
