Scientific Data

Western Blot Detection of Mouse and Rat Transgelin/TAGLN antibody by Western Blot. View Larger

Detection of Mouse and Rat Transgelin/TAGLN by Western Blot. Western blot shows lysates of mouse uterus tissue and rat uterus tissue. PVDF membrane was probed with 0.5 µg/mL of Sheep Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat Transgelin/TAGLN Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF7886) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF016). Specific bands were detected for Transgelin/TAGLN at approximately 18-22 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.

Immunocytochemistry Transgelin/TAGLN antibody in MCF 10A Human Cell Line by Immunocytochemistry (ICC). View Larger

Transgelin/TAGLN in MCF 10A Human Cell Line. Transgelin/TAGLN was detected in immersion fixed MCF 10A human breast epithelial cell line using Sheep Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat Transgelin/TAGLN Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF7886) at 10 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (red; Catalog # NL010) and counterstained with DAPI (blue). Specific staining was localized to cytoplasm.

Immunohistochemistry Transgelin/TAGLN antibody in Human Liver Cancer Tissue by Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P). View Larger

Transgelin/TAGLN in Human Liver Cancer Tissue. Transgelin/TAGLN was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human liver cancer tissue using Sheep Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat Transgelin/TAGLN Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF7886) at 1.7 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Sheep HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS019) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to connective tissue.

Detection of Mouse Transgelin/TAGLN by Simple WesternTM. Simple Western lane view shows lysates of mouse uterus tissue, loaded at 0.2 mg/mL. A specific band was detected for Transgelin/TAGLN at approximately 29 kDa (as indicated) using 25 µg/mL of Sheep Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat Transgelin/TAGLN Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF7886) followed by 1:50 dilution of HRP-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF016). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using the 12-230 kDa separation system.

Background: Transgelin/TAGLN

TAGLN (Transgelin; also 22 kDa Actin-binding protein, WS3-10 and Smooth muscle protein 22 alpha) is a 22-24 kDa cytosolic member of the calponin (calcium-binding and calmodulin-binding troponin T-like protein) family of molecules. It is expressed in both visceral and vascular smooth muscle, fibroblasts, cardiac myocytes, and potentially in breast duct plus prostate epithelium. TAGLN is associated with the actin stress fibers and appears to both suppress MMP-9 production, and downmodulate Ca++-independent smooth muscle contraction. Human TAGLN is 201 amino acids (aa) in length. It contains one CH/calponin homology domain (aa 24-137), and an actin-binding calponin-like repeat/CLIK (aa 175-200). There is one utilized phosphorylation site at Tyr193, plus two utilized acetylation sites in the N-terminus. Three potential isoform variants are reported, one that shows a alternative start site at Met111, a second that contains a new start site 10 aa upstream of the standard site, and a third that possesses a 58 aa substitution for aa 97-201. Full-length human and mouse TAGLN share 97% aa sequence identity.
