Recombinant Human HSPA8 293 Cell Lysate

• Cat.No.: HSPA8-5353HCL

Specification

• Description: Antigen standard for heat shock 70kDa protein 8 (HSPA8), transcript variant 1 is a lysate prepared from HEK293T cells transiently transfected with a TrueORF gene-carrying pCMV plasmid and then lysed in RIPA Buffer. Protein concentration was determined using a colorimetric assay. The antigen control carries a C-terminal Myc/DDK tag for detection.
• Source: HEK 293 cells
• Species: Human
• Components: This product includes 3 vials: 1 vial of gene-specific cell lysate, 1 vial of control vector cell lysate, and 1 vial of loading buffer. Each lysate vial contains 0.1 mg lysate in 0.1 ml (1 mg/ml) of RIPA Buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl pH7.5, 250 mM NaCl, 5 mM EDTA, 50 mM NaF, 1% NP40). The loading buffer vial contains 0.5 ml 2X SDS Loading Buffer (125 mM Tris-Cl, pH6.8, 10% glycerol, 4% SDS, 0.002% Bromophenol blue, 5% beta-mercaptoethanol).
• Size: 0.1 mg
• Storage Instruction: Store at -80°C. Minimize freeze-thaw cycles. After addition of 2X SDS Loading Buffer, the lysates can be stored at -20°C. Product is guaranteed 6 months from the date of shipment.
• Applications: ELISA, WB, IP. WB: Mix equal volume of lysates with 2X SDS Loading Buffer. Boil the mixture for 10 min before loading (for membrane protein lysates, incubate the mixture at room temperature for 30 min). Load 5 ug lysate per lane.

Q&As

In the context of cellular stress, how does HSPA8 contribute to the heat shock response, and what downstream signaling pathways does it modulate to promote cell survival?

HSPA8 is a central player in the heat shock response, assisting in the refolding of denatured proteins. It modulates downstream pathways such as HSF1 activation, orchestrating a cellular survival response.

Can you discuss the involvement of HSPA8 in neurodegenerative diseases, and how does its chaperone activity influence protein aggregation and neuronal dysfunction?

HSPA8 plays a role in neurodegenerative diseases, mitigating protein aggregation and neuronal dysfunction. Its chaperone activity is crucial for maintaining protein homeostasis in the nervous system.

How does HSPA8 participate in the regulation of apoptosis, and what anti-apoptotic mechanisms does it employ to maintain cellular viability under stress conditions?

HSPA8 exhibits anti-apoptotic functions by interacting with pro-apoptotic proteins and preventing their activation. Its role in apoptosis regulation contributes to cell survival during stress.

What is the significance of HSPA8 in autophagy, and how does it influence the selective degradation of misfolded proteins and damaged organelles?

HSPA8 is involved in autophagy, facilitating the clearance of misfolded proteins and damaged organelles. It interacts with autophagy receptors, promoting their recognition by autophagosomes.

What are the mechanisms by which HSPA8 regulates the immune response, particularly its involvement in antigen presentation and the modulation of immune cell functions?

HSPA8 participates in antigen presentation and modulates immune cell functions. It chaperones antigens for presentation on major histocompatibility complexes, influencing immune recognition and response.
