Target

  • Function

    Protects cells against oxidative stress and cell death. Plays a role in regulating expression or stability of the mitochondrial uncoupling proteins SLC25A14 and SLC25A27 in dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra pars compacta and attenuates the oxidative stress induced by calcium entry into the neurons via L-type channels during pacemaking. Eliminates hydrogen peroxide and protects cells against hydrogen peroxide-induced cell death. May act as an atypical peroxiredoxin-like peroxidase that scavenges hydrogen peroxide. Following removal of a C-terminal peptide, displays protease activity and enhanced cytoprotective action against oxidative stress-induced apoptosis. Stabilizes NFE2L2 by preventing its association with KEAP1 and its subsequent ubiquitination. Binds to OTUD7B and inhibits its deubiquitinating activity. Enhances RELA nuclear translocation. Binds to a number of mRNAs containing multiple copies of GG or CC motifs and partially inhibits their translation but dissociates following oxidative stress. Required for correct mitochondrial morphology and function and for autophagy of dysfunctional mitochondria. Regulates astrocyte inflammatory responses. Acts as a positive regulator of androgen receptor-dependent transcription. Prevents aggregation of SNCA. Plays a role in fertilization. Has no proteolytic activity. Has cell-growth promoting activity and transforming activity. May function as a redox-sensitive chaperone.

  • Tissue specificity

    Highly expressed in pancreas, kidney, skeletal muscle, liver, testis and heart. Detected at slightly lower levels in placenta and brain. Detected in astrocytes, Sertoli cells, spermatogonia, spermatids and spermatozoa.

  • Involvement in disease

    Defects in PARK7 are the cause of Parkinson disease type 7 (PARK7) [MIM:606324]. A neurodegenerative disorder characterized by resting tremor, postural tremor, bradykinesia, muscular rigidity, anxiety and psychotic episodes. PARK7 has onset before 40 years, slow progression and initial good response to levodopa. Some patients may show traits reminiscent of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-parkinsonism/dementia complex (Guam disease).

  • Sequence similarities

    Belongs to the peptidase C56 family.

  • Post-translational
    modifications

    Sumoylated on Lys-130 by PIAS2 or PIAS4; which is enhanced after ultraviolet irradiation and essential for cell-growth promoting activity and transforming activity.
    Cys-106 is easily oxidized to sulfinic acid.
    Undergoes cleavage of a C-terminal peptide and subsequent activation of protease activity in response to oxidative stress.

  • Cellular localization

    Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Mitochondrion. Under normal conditions, located predominantly in the cytoplasm and, to a lesser extent, in the nucleus and mitochondrion. Translocates to the mitochondrion and subsequently to the nucleus in response to oxidative stress and exerts an increased cytoprotective effect against oxidative damage. Detected in tau inclusions in brains from neurodegenerative disease patients.

The cells were fixed with 100% methanol (5 min), permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100 for 5 minutes 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 ab11251 at 1µg/ml and ab6046, Rabbit polyclonal to beta Tubulin - Loading Control.

    Question

    Dear Sir/Madam

    I wish to enquire as to the concentration of anti-PARK7/DJ1 antibody (cat # ab11251) (https://www.abcam.com/PARK7DJ1-antibody-malphaDJ-1E219-ab11251.html).

    Regards

    Answer

    Thank you for your enquiry.

    I have investigated our records for ab11251. I am sorry toconfirm there is an error on the datsheet and that this antibody is sold as ascites. The datasheet has been updated with the correct information and I apologize for any confusion.

    The quality of our antibodies and datasheets is very important to us, as is any feedback and data we receive. It is regrettable that the information we had on this particular antibody was not of the standard both we and our customers expect from our products.

    With regards to the concentration, unpurified antibodies, such as those sold as whole antiserum, ascites or tissue culture supernatant will not have a concentration stated on the datasheet. Antibody concentration is usually determined by protein assay, and ascites will contain a lot of other proteins, which means the antibody quantification would not be accurate.

    I can confirm that for ascites, concentration of antibody is known to vary between 5 - 10 mg/ml.

    I am sorry we are not able to provide an exact concentration on this occasion, but hope this information will be helpful to you.

    If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

    Previous vial of ab11251 worked in IHC-P, lot 63399 (liquid in vial clear). Vials states Ascites
    New vial of same antibody lot 63399 is not working in IHC-P, liquid in vial is yellowy.Vial does not state ascites.

    Answer

    Thank you for contacting us and reporting the problems you have encountered with ab11251. Unfortunately xxx is away today but she has asked me to get in contact with you.

    xxxxhas been investigating how the antibody is produced and purified in house and why there may be a difference in the two vials that you have received and shewill get back to you with this informationas soon as she hasit. In the meantime, if you wouldn'tmind, could you provide a few moredetails of whatproblems you havebeen experiencing with this antibody?I have attached aquestionnaire to this email for this purpose. Thiswill help greatly in investigating this case further and initiating any additional in house testing where necessary. Ifyou could provide images of theantibodyworking andof the latest results that wouldbevery useful.

    As discussed with Kate, although this antibody has not been tested by us for paraffin embedded IHC and would therefore not normally be covered by the Abrpomise, as youhave previously found it to besuccessful in this application we can extend the Abpromise guarantee as a good-will gesture. I am thereforeable to offer you areplacement of thisantibody with adifferent lot,a different antibody altogether (such as https://www.abcam.com/PARK7-DJ1-antibody-ab18257.htmlwhich has been used in paraffin embedded IHC) or if you would prefer, a refund.

    I apologise for the inconvenience this problem has caused and look forward to hearinghow you wouldlike to proceed.

    Question

    1 In which dilution the antibody will works best 2 Does the ab11251 fit for immunoprecipitation? thanks for your reply.

    Read More
    Answer

    Thank you for your enquiry. Ab11251 has been tested for application in Western blotting and Immunocytochemistry, and has not yet been tested in any other applications (including IP). For Western blotting, I would recommend starting at a dilution of 1:500, and for ICC I would recommend starting at a dilution of 1:100. Please optimize based upon your results. If you decide to go ahead and purchase this product, please let us know how you get on by submitting an Abreview and in return we will award you 50 Abcam Points, which can be redeemed on a number of rewards (a further 100 Abcam Points will be offered for an image). If you have any additional questions, please contact us again.

    Answer

    Thank you very much for your enquiry and for your patience. Ab11251 was originated outside Abcam and according to the originator, they had positive feedback from a researcher who found the antibody to cross-react with zebrafish. That is unfortunately all the information that I have regarding the antibody's cross-reactivity with zebrafish. I saw that you are using ab11251 with PFA fixed brain tissue. To our knowledge, this antibody has only been tested for application in Western blotting and Immunocytochemistry. We don't have any information about how ab11251 works in IHC. At this point I would like to make the following suggestions. The PFA fixative may be modifying the epitope that the antibody recognizes and so I would suggest doing an antigen retrieval step in order to unmask the epitope. Also, you didn't mention which dilutions of ab11251 that you have tried but you may want to increase the concentration. If you have any additional questions, please contact us again.
