Western Blot Detection of Mouse Plexin A1 antibody by Western Blot. View Larger

Detection of Mouse Plexin A1 by Western Blot. Western blot shows lysates of mouse embryonic heart tissue. PVDF Membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Mouse Plexin A1 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF4309) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF019). A specific band was detected for Plexin A1 at approximately 200 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 8.

Plexin A1 in Human Dendritic Cells. Plexin A1 was detected in immersion fixed immature human dendritic cells using Goat Anti-Mouse Plexin A1 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF4309) at 10 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (red; Catalog # NL001) and counterstained with DAPI (blue). Specific staining was localized to cell surfaces and cytoplasm. View our protocol for Fluorescent ICC Staining of Non-adherent Cells.

Detection of Mouse Plexin A1 by Western Blot Localization of PlexinA1 and Npn1 in the coronal sections of WT and PlexinA1 KO brains at E16.5 and E17.5.(A) Immunohistochemistry with anti-PlexinA1 antibody revealed the localization of PlexinA1 only in WT brains at E16.5 and E17.5 (a, b) as well as the lack of PlexinA1 in PlexinA1 KO brains (c, d). Scale bars: 200 μm. (B, C) Western blot analysis using anti-PlexinA1 antibodies was performed with tissue lysates from the medial regions covering the cingulate cortex, axons from the cingulate and neocortex, and the CC of E16.5 and E17.5 brains. PlexinA1 protein was detected in WT brains (B; E16.5, C; E17.5) but not in PlexinA1 KO brains (B; E16.5, C; E17.5). (D) Immunohistochemistry with anti-Npn1 antibodies revealed localization of Npn1 in both WT (a; E16.5, b; E17.5) and PlexinA1 KO (c; E16.5, d; E17.5) brains at E16.5 and E17.5. Scale bars: 200 μm.

Background: Plexin A1

Plexin A1 (formerly Plexin 1) is a 200 kDa type I transmembrane protein that is a member of the Plexin family of Semaphorin signal transducers (1). Plexin signaling induces cytoskeletal remodeling, which mediates cell migration and axon repulsion (2). The mouse Plexin A1 cDNA encodes 1894 amino acids (aa) including a 27 aa signal sequence, a 1215 aa extracellular domain (ECD) with one Sema domain, a spacer, and four tandem IPT/TIG domains, a 21 aa transmembrane segment, and a 631 aa cytoplasmic domain (1). Within the ECD, human Plexin A1 shares 95%, 95%, 92%, 80% and 79% aa sequence identity with mouse, rat, bovine, chicken and Xenopus Plexin A1, respectively. The four mouse Plexin A molecules share 59‑67% aa identity with each other. Plexin A1 binds Class 3 (secreted) Semaphorins indirectly via Neuropilin (Npn)-1 and Npn-2, and binds transmembrane Semaphorin 6D directly (3‑5). Sema3A engagement of Plexin A1 and Npn-1 guides proprioceptive and sensory neurons during development, while Sema3B engagement guides floorplate neurons (5‑8). In contrast, T cell Sema6D engagement of dendritic cell Plexin A1 controls actin polymeration, which supports formation of immunological synapses and enhances the function of the dendritic cells (3, 4, 9). Complex formation with DAP12 allows Plexin A1 signaling through TREM family proteins (10, 11). However, the most striking effect of Plexin A1 deletion is on bone homeostasis, where Plexin A1-deficient mice show increased trabecular bone mass due to downregulated osteoclast differentiation (10). Plexin A1 and Sema6D are frequently expressed in malignant pleural mesothelioma, where they promote anchorage-independent growth through complexing with and activating VEGF R2 (12).
