Function
Clathrin is the major protein of the polyhedral coat of coated pits and vesicles. Two different adapter protein complexes link the clathrin lattice either to the plasma membrane or to the trans-Golgi network. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the clathrin heavy chain family. -
Cellular localization
Cytoplasmic vesicle membrane. Membrane > coated pit. Melanosome. Cytoplasmic face of coated pits and vesicles. Identified by mass spectrometry in melanosome fractions from stage I to stage IV. - Information by UniProt

Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence analysis of Clathrin heavy chain shows staining in HeLa cells. Clathrin, Heavy chain staining (green), F-Actin staining with Phalloidin (red) and nuclei with DAPI (blue) is shown. Cells were grown on chamber slides and fixed with formaldehyde prior to staining. Cells were probed without (control) or with ab2731 (1:200) over night at 4°C, washed with PBS and incubated with a DyLight-488 conjugated goat anti-mouse secondary antibody. Images were taken at 60X magnification.

Developed using the ECL technique. -
Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Clathrin heavy chain antibody [X22] (ab2731)Immunohistochemistry was performed on normal biopsies of deparaffinized Human colon tissue. To expose target proteins heat induced antigen retrieval was performed using 10mM sodium citrate (pH6.0) buffer microwaved for 8-15 minutes. Following antigen retrieval tissues were blocked in 3% BSA-PBS for 30 minutes at room temperature. Tissues were then probed at a dilution of 1:100 with a mouse monoclonal antibody recognizing Clathrin Heavy chain ab2731 or without primary antibody (negative control) overnight at 4°C in a humidified chamber. Tissues were washed extensively with PBST and endogenous peroxidase activity was quenched with a peroxidase suppressor. Detection was performed using a biotin-conjugated secondary antibody and SA-HRP followed by colorimetric detection using DAB. Tissues were counterstained with hematoxylin and prepped for mounting.

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Clathrin heavy chain antibody [X22] (ab2731)Immunohistochemistry was performed on cancer biopsies of deparaffinized Human breast carcinoma tissue. To expose target proteins heat induced antigen retrieval was performed using 10mM sodium citrate (pH6.0) buffer microwaved for 8-15 minutes. Following antigen retrieval tissues were blocked in 3% BSA-PBS for 30 minutes at room temperature.

Xenopus laevis cytoplasmic egg extract visualized live with primary and secondary antibody addition [red is anti-Clathrin heavy chain X22 (ab2731) with goat anti-mouse Alexa Fluor 568 secondary, green is anti-HIP1R (ab77297) with goat anti-rabbit Alexa Fluor 488 secondary]. Large red structures are probably aggregates, but the small structures appear to be specific for vesicle staining.
