Function

Adhesion plaque protein. Binds alpha-actinin and the CRP protein. Important for targeting TES and ENA/VASP family members to focal adhesions and for the formation of actin-rich structures. May be a component of a signal transduction pathway that mediates adhesion-stimulated changes in gene expression (By similarity).

Notes

ab238430 is the carrier-free version of Anti-Zyxin antibody [EPR4302] ab109316.

Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.

This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:

  • - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
  • - Improved sensitivity and specificity
  • - Long-term security of supply
  • - Animal-free batch production

For more information, read more on recombinant antibodies.

Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. The carrier-free buffer and high concentration allow for increased conjugation efficiency.

This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with 1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

This product is compatible with the Maxpar® Antibody Labeling Kit from Fluidigm, without the need for antibody preparation. Maxpar® is a trademark of Fluidigm Canada Inc.

Activity summary

Zyxin also known as ZYX is a mechanical regulator associated with cell adhesion and signaling. This protein has a molecular mass of approximately 61 kDa and shows expression in various cell types including those in the heart liver and lungs. As a component of focal adhesions zyxin plays a role in cytoskeletal dynamics by interacting with actin filaments and facilitating the formation of stress fibers.

Biological function summary

The protein has important roles in cellular processes such as migration and morphology. Zyxin often forms part of a larger protein complex that includes VASP and α-actinin which contribute to cell scaffolding and structural integrity. It serves as an organizer for cytoskeletal proteins ensuring proper cell movement and adaptability to cellular stress. Its actin-binding capacity enables it to regulate structural changes necessary for cellular adaptation to environmental stimuli.

Pathways

This protein is essential in the regulation of actin cytoskeleton associated pathways and adherens junction signaling. Zyxin interacts with Ena/VASP proteins which are significant in actin filament elongation helping regulate dynamic changes in cell shape and motility. Its relationship with LIM domain-containing proteins positions zyxin within pathways related to cell proliferation and signal transduction.

Associated diseases and disorders

Zyxin has been implicated in cancer progression especially in metastasis where altered cell adhesion and movement play a role. It also relates to cardiovascular diseases due to its involvement in mechanotransduction pathways critical to heart muscle function. In cancer zyxin influences the activity of YAP/TAZ transcription regulators affecting tumor cell behavior. In cardiovascular scenarios the protein interacts with paxillin to mediate responses to mechanical load changes impacting heart disease progression.

    Western blot - Anti-Zyxin antibody [EPR4302] - BSA and Azide free (ab238430)

    False colour image of Western blot: Anti-Zyxin antibody [EPR4302] staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in green; Mouse anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] (Anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] - Loading Control ab8245) loading control staining at 1/20000 dilution, shown in red. In Western blot, Anti-Zyxin antibody [EPR4302] ab109316 was shown to bind specifically to Zyxin. A band was observed at 75 kDa in wild-type HEK-293T cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in ZYX CRISPR-Cas9 edited cell line Human ZYX (Zyxin) knockout HEK-293T cell line ab266503 (CRISPR-Cas9 edited cell lysate Human ZYX (Zyxin) knockout HEK-293T cell lysate ab257809). The band observed in the CRISPR-Cas9 edited lysate lane below 75 kDa is likely to represent a truncated form of Zyxin. This has not been investigated further and the functional properties of the gene product have not been determined. To generate this image, wild-type and ZYX CRISPR-Cas9 edited HEK-293T cell lysates were analysed. First, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in fluorescent western blot (TBS-based) blocking solution 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 (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed (Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preadsorbed ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed (Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preadsorbed ab216776) at 1/20000 dilution.
