Scientific Data

Detection of Human, Mouse, and Rat OPA1 by Western Blot. Western blot shows lysates of HeLa human cervical epithelial carcinoma cell line, PANC-1 human pancreatic carcinoma cell line, MCF-7 human breast cancer cell line, C2C12 mouse myoblast cell line, and Rat-2 rat embryonic fibroblast cell line. PVDF membrane was probed with 0.2 µg/mL of Rabbit Anti-Human OPA1 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB9506) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Rabbit IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF008). Specific bands were detected for OPA1 at approximately 80-100 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.

Detection of Human OPA1 by Simple WesternTM. Simple Western shows lysates of MDA‑MB‑231 human breast cancer cell line, loaded at 0.5 mg/ml. A specific band was detected for OPA1 at approximately 90-96 kDa (as indicated) using 20 µg/mL of Rabbit Anti-Human OPA1 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB9506). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using the 12-230kDa separation system.

Background: OPA1
Optic Atrophy-1 (OPA1), aka Dynamin-like 120 kDa protein, mitochondrial, is a Dynamin-related GTPase required for mitochondrial fusion and regulation of apoptosis. OPA1 exists as a single-pass membrane protein in the mitochondrion inner membrane as well as in soluble forms in mitochondrion intermembrane space, and is expressed in retina, brain, testis, heart, skeletal muscles. Human OPA1 binds PARL and interacts with CHCHD3 as well as IMMT (preferentially with soluble OPA1 forms). Proteolytic processing in response to intrinsic apoptotic signals may lead to disassembly of OPA1 oligomers and release of the caspase activator cytochrome C (CYCS) into mitochondrial intermembrane space. OPA1 protein form S1 is an inactive form produced by cleavage at S1 position by metalloendopeptidase OMA1 following stress conditions that induce loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, leading to negative regulation of mitochondrial fusion. Defects in OPA1 have been linked to optic atrophy type 1 (OPA1) and dominant optic atrophy plus syndrome (DOA+).
