Cellular localization
Smad2: Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Cytoplasmic and nuclear in the absence of TGF-beta. On TGF-beta stimulation, migrates to the nucleus when complexed with SMAD4. On dephosphorylation by phosphatase PPM1A, released from the SMAD2/SMAD4 complex, and exported out of the nucleus by interaction with RANBP1. Smad3: Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Cytoplasmic and nuclear in the absence of TGF-beta. On TGF-beta stimulation, migrates to the nucleus when complexed with SMAD4 (PubMed:15799969). Through the action of the phosphatase PPM1A, released from the SMAD2/SMAD4 complex, and exported out of the nucleus by interaction with RANBP1 (PubMed:16751101, PubMed:19289081). Co-localizes with LEMD3 at the nucleus inner membrane (PubMed:15601644). MAPK-mediated phosphorylation appears to have no effect on nuclear import (PubMed:19218245). PDPK1 prevents its nuclear translocation in response to TGF-beta (PubMed:17327236). -

Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-Smad2 (phospho T8) + Smad3 (phospho T8) antibody [EPR23682-64] (ab254407)
Immunofluorescent analysis of 4% Paraformaldehyde-fixed, 0.1% Triton X-100 permeabilized RAW 264.7 cells labelling Smad2 (phospho T8) + Smad3 (phospho T8) with ab254407 at 1/50 (9.34 ug/ml) dilution, followed by ab150077 Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) antibody at 1/1000 dilution (Green). Confocal image showing weak cytoplasmic and nuclear staining in RAW 264.7 cells, while strong cytoplasmic and weak nuclear staining in RAW 264.7 cells treated with calyculin A (100 nM) for 30 mins is observed. ab195889 Anti-alpha Tubulin mouse monoclonal antibody - Microtubule Marker (Alexa Fluor® 594) was used to counterstain tubulin at 1/200 dilution (Red). The Nuclear counterstain was DAPI (Blue).
Secondary antibody only control: Secondary antibody is ab150077 Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) at 1/1000 dilution.

Observed band size: 55,60 kDa why is the actual band size different from the predicted?Blocking and diluting buffer and concentration: 5% NFDM/TBST.
The molecular weight observed is consistent with what has been described in the literature. (PMID: 25998442, 30666129).
Calyculin A is a known phosphatase inhibitor, which increased the level of pSmad2/3 (T8). The shifted band after treated with Calyculin A might be due to multiple phosphorylation events.
The down-regulation of pSmad2 (T8) is induced by TGF-beta1 treatment in HaCaT (PMID: 19201832).
Bands between 15-25kDa may be caused by degradation.
