Western Blot (WB) of anti-AIM2 antibody

Western blot analysis of AIM2 using anti-AIM2 antibody (MBS177917).
Electrophoresis was performed on a 5-20% SDS-PAGE gel at 70V (Stacking gel) / 90V (Resolving gel) for 2-3 hours. The sample well of each lane was loaded with 30 ug of sample under reducing conditions.
Lane 1: human A549 whole cell lysates,
Lane 2: human Daudi whole cell lysates,
Lane 3: human K562 whole cell lysates,
Lane 4: human HepG2 whole cell lysates,
Lane 5: mouse testis tissue lysates.
After electrophoresis, proteins were transferred to a nitrocellulose membrane at 150 mA for 50-90 minutes. Blocked the membrane with 5% non-fat milk/TBS for 1.5 hour at RT. The membrane was incubated with rabbit anti-AIM2 antigen affinity purified polyclonal antibody (Catalog # MBS177917) at 0.5 ug/mL overnight at 4°C, then washed with TBS-0.1%Tween 3 times with 5 minutes each and probed with a goat anti-rabbit IgG-HRP secondary antibody at a dilution of 1:5000 for 1.5 hour at RT. The signal is developed using an Enhanced Chemiluminescent detection (ECL) kit (Catalog # please inquire) with Tanon 5200 system. A specific band was detected for AIM2 at approximately 45 kDa. The expected band size for AIM2 is at 39,40-45 kDa.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC) of anti-AIM2 antibody

IHC analysis of AIM2 using anti-AIM2 antibody (MBS177917).AIM2 was detected in a paraffin-embedded section of mouse kidney tissue. Heat mediated antigen retrieval was performed in EDTA buffer (pH 8.0, epitope retrieval solution). The tissue section was blocked with 10% goat serum. The tissue section was then incubated with 1 ug/ml rabbit anti-AIM2 Antibody (MBS177917) overnight at 4°C. Biotinylated goat anti-rabbit IgG was used as secondary antibody and incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C. The tissue section was developed using Strepavidin-Biotin-Complex (SABC) (Catalog # please inquire) with DAB as the chromogen.

NCBI Summary for AIM2

AIM2 is a member of the IFI20X /IFI16 family. It plays a putative role in tumorigenic reversion and may control cell proliferation. Interferon-gamma induces expression of AIM2. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

UniProt Comments for AIM2

AIM2: a tumor suppressor which may act by repressing NF-kappa-B transcriptional activity. Induced by interferon gamma. Defects in AIM2 may be a cause of microsatellite unstable colon cancers. AIM2 and various NOD-like receptors form multiprotein complexes called inflammasomes, which mediate caspase-1-dependent processing of pro-IL-1beta.

Protein type: Tumor suppressor

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 1q22

Cellular Component: cytoplasm; cytosol; nucleus

Molecular Function: double-stranded DNA binding; identical protein binding; protein binding

Biological Process: activation of innate immune response; activation of NF-kappaB transcription factor; apoptosis; immune response; inflammatory response; inhibition of NF-kappaB transcription factor; innate immune response; interleukin-1 beta secretion; positive regulation of defense response to virus by host; positive regulation of interleukin-1 beta production; positive regulation of interleukin-1 beta secretion; positive regulation of protein oligomerization; tumor necrosis factor-mediated signaling pathway
