Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence - Anti-CBX4 antibody (AB4189)

Immunofluorescent imaging of human cells (U2OS) with ab4189 reveals the expected discrete nuclear structure that is termed the PcG body corresponding to the known localisation of PC2. This corresponds to results seen in Satijn et al.

IF was performed with a standard paraformaldehyde technique (fixed in PBS buffered PFH 4% for 5 minutes, permeabilised with 0.5% triton-PBS for 5 minutes, blocked with 5% milk / 0.2% tween for one hour. Primary antibody used at 1/200 in 5% milk / 0.2% TWEEN for one hour, secondary antibody for 30 minutes. All blocking and incubation steps carried out at 37 degrees C. Nuclei counterstained with Hoechst stain (blue).

特異性

In immunofluoresence, this antibody detects the expected discrete nuclear structure that is termed the PcG body, corresponding to the known localisation of PC2. The antibody has been successfully used to detect FLAG-tagged transfected hPC2 (see picture). It detects a weak band that probably corresponds to endogenous PC2, however, a strong secondary band is also seen at 50kD in all cell lines thus far tested. This suggests that the antibody also reacts with another ubiquitous highly expressed protein.

補足情報

CBX4 also known as Chromobox protein homolog 4 or Polycomb 2 acts mechanically as part of the Polycomb group (PcG) proteins. It weighs approximately 60 kDa and it is found in nuclear matrix where it participates in chromatin remodeling. CBX4 shows significant expression in tissues like liver brain and lung indicating its wide importance to cellular function. By binding to methylated histones especially H3K27me3 CBX4 influences gene silencing and epigenetic regulation important for maintaining cellular identity.
Biological function summary

CBX4 operates as a component of the Polycomb Repressive Complex 1 (PRC1) which plays role in controlling gene expression patterns during development. In this complex CBX4 interacts with other core components such as BMI1 and RING1 to facilitate monoubiquitination of histone H2A leading to transcriptional repression. This ability of CBX4 to modulate epigenetic states highlights its importance in critical developmental processes and differentiation.

Pathways

CBX4 significantly influences gene regulatory networks involved in cell cycle and apoptosis pathways. In the cell cycle regulation CBX4 interacts with important proteins such as Cyclin D1 impacting cell proliferation. In apoptosis CBX4 has roles linked to the p53 pathway by modulating transcriptional activity which influences cellular fate. These pathways underline the significance of CBX4 in maintaining balance between cell growth and death.

The deregulation of CBX4 expression has been associated with cancers like hepatocellular carcinoma and breast cancer. CBX4 potentially interacts with proteins such as p21 and p16 whose pathways play significant roles in cancer development. This underlines its role as a potential biomarker or therapeutic target in cancer treatment strategies. Understanding the function and regulation of CBX4 could offer insights in devising novel treatments for these malignancies.

E3 SUMO-protein ligase which facilitates SUMO1 conjugation by UBE2I (PubMed : 12679040). Involved in the sumoylation of HNRNPK, a p53/TP53 transcriptional coactivator, hence indirectly regulates p53/TP53 transcriptional activation resulting in p21/CDKN1A expression. Monosumoylates ZNF131 (PubMed : 22825850).. Component of a Polycomb group (PcG) multiprotein PRC1-like complex, a complex class required to maintain the transcriptionally repressive state of many genes, including Hox genes, throughout development (PubMed : 12167701, PubMed : 19636380, PubMed : 21282530). PcG PRC1 complex acts via chromatin remodeling and modification of histones; it mediates monoubiquitination of histone H2A 'Lys-119', rendering chromatin heritably changed in its expressibility (PubMed : 12167701, PubMed : 19636380, PubMed : 21282530). Binds to histone H3 trimethylated at 'Lys-9' (H3K9me3) (By similarity). Plays a role in the lineage differentiation of the germ layers in embryonic development (By similarity).
