Function

Heterodimer with SLC3A2, that functions as an antiporter by mediating the exchange of extracellular anionic L-cystine and intracellular L-glutamate across the cellular plasma membrane (PubMed:11133847, PubMed:11417227, PubMed:14722095, PubMed:15151999, PubMed:34880232, PubMed:35245456, PubMed:35352032). Provides L-cystine for the maintenance of the redox balance between extracellular L-cystine and L-cysteine and for the maintenance of the intracellular levels of glutathione that is essential for cells protection from oxidative stress (By similarity). The transport is sodium-independent, electroneutral with a stoichiometry of 1:1, and is drove by the high intracellular concentration of L-glutamate and the intracellular reduction of L-cystine (PubMed:11133847, PubMed:11417227). In addition, mediates the import of L-kynurenine leading to anti-ferroptotic signaling propagation required to maintain L-cystine and glutathione homeostasis (PubMed:35245456). Moreover, mediates N-acetyl-L-cysteine uptake into the placenta leading to subsequently down-regulation of pathways associated with oxidative stress, inflammation and apoptosis (PubMed:34120018). In vitro can also transport L-aspartate (PubMed:11417227). May participate in astrocyte and meningeal cell proliferation during development and can provide neuroprotection by promoting glutathione synthesis and delivery from non-neuronal cells such as astrocytes and meningeal cells to immature neurons (By similarity). Controls the production of pheomelanin pigment directly (By similarity).

We recommend not to boil your lysates before loading to gel when preparing membrane used for western blot. Boiling leads to the formation of aggregates of membrane proteins, leading to unsuccessful migration in gel. Please do not boil your lysate when testing membrane protein.

Notes

Anti-xCT antibody [EPR27115-64] (ab307601) was developed by Abcam using patented rabbit monoclonal antibody technology and is validated for use in Flow Cyt (Intra), ICC/IF, IHC-P, IP and WB.

Abcam's high quality manufacturing and validation processes ensure Anti-xCT antibody [EPR27115-64] (ab307601) has high sensitivity and specificity alongside high lot-to-lot consistency and reproducibility.

Anti-xCT antibody [EPR27115-64] (ab307601) specifically detects xCT (UniProt ID: Q9UPY5; Molecular weight: 56kDa) and is sold in a convenient trial size to enable initial testing (20 µL) and larger sizes for subsequent scaling up experiments (100 µL and 1 mL).

Conjugation-ready, carrier free format available for antibody clone EPR27115-64 - Anti-xCT antibody [EPR27115-64] - BSA and Azide free ab307602.

A highly validated xCT (SLC7A11) antibody, essential for studying the cystine/glutamate antiporter SLC7A11, ferroptosis and redox balance. This antibody is crucial in cancer research, particularly in understanding xCT's role in tumor progression and antioxidant defense and is widely used in studies of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and xCT inhibitors for therapeutic applications. SLC7A11 is frequently overexpressed in human cancers. SLC7A11 promotes cystine uptake and glutathione biosynthesis, resulting in protection from oxidative stress and ferroptotic cell death. Recent studies have unexpectedly revealed that SLC7A11 also plays critical roles in glutamine metabolism and regulates the glucose and glutamine dependency of cancer cells. Expression of SLC7A11/xCT correlates with advanced lung cancer stage and predicted a worse 5-year survival.

    Western blot: Anti-SLC7A11 antibody [EPR27115-64] (ab307601) staining at 1/1000 dilution, shown in black; Mouse anti-CANX [CANX/1543] (Anti-Calnexin antibody [CANX/1543] ab238078) loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in magenta. A band was observed at 35 kDa in wild-type HepG2 cell lysates with a reduction in signal observed at this size in SLC7A11 heterozygous knockout cell line. To generate this image, wild-type and SLC7A11 heterozygous knockout HepG2 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 before development with a high-sensitivity ECL substrate kit and imaged with 16 minutes exposure time. Secondary antibodies used were Goat anti-Rabbit HRP (H+L) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L 680RD at 1/20000 dilution.

Alexa Fluor® 594 Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [DM1A] - Microtubule Marker ab195889 Anti-alpha Tubulin mouse monoclonal antibody - Microtubule Marker (Alexa Fluor® 594) was used to counterstain tubulin at 1/200 dilution (2.5 µg/ml) (Red). Nuclear counterstain was DAPI (Blue).

    Secondary antibody only control: Secondary antibody is Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed ab150081 Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed at 1/1000 dilution.

    Flow Cytometry (Intracellular) - Anti-xCT antibody [EPR27115-64] (ab307601)

    Flow cytometric analysis of 4% paraformaldehyde-fixed 90% methanol-permeabilized COLO 205 (human colon adenocarcinoma tumor ascitic epithelial cell) (Left panel) / A549 (human lung carcinoma epithelial cell) (Right panel) cells labeling xCT with ab307601 at 1/50 dilution (1µg) (Red) compared with a Rabbit monoclonal IgG (Rabbit IgG, monoclonal [EPR25A] - Isotype Control ab172730) (Black) isotype control and an unlabeled control (cells without incubation with primary antibody and secondary antibody) (Blue).

    A Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG (Alexa Fluor® 488, Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed ab150081) at 1/2000 dilution was used as the secondary antibody.
    Low expression: COLO 205 (PMID: 31000598).
