Immunocytochemistry (ICC)

(Immunocytochemical labeling of nSMase2 in aldehyde-fixed and NP-40-permeabilized differentiated PC12 cells. The cells were labeled with rabbit polyclonal anti-nSMase2 (SP4061) antibody in the absence (Left) or presence (Right) of blocking peptide (SX4065). The antibody was detected using appropriate secondary antibody conjugated to DyLight 594. The cells were counterstained with Sytox green to label nuclei.)

Related Product Information for anti-nSMase2 antibody
Cellular stress leads to hydrolysis of sphingomyelin to generate lipid second messenger molecules including ceramide, sphingosine, and sphingosine-1-phosphate. A variety of sphingomyelinase activities have been described that differ in tissue and subcellular distribution, as well as pHand cation dependance. These enzymes generate ceramide for specific signaling pathways that lead to a wide range of cellular responses, such as apoptosis, cell cycle arrest, cell survival, and cell proliferation. Neutral sphingomyelinases (nSMases) are Mg2+-dependent neutral pHSMases, and the family includes nSMase1, nSMase2, and nSMase3. These nSMases differ in their tissue distribution and subcellular localization. nSMase2 (also known as SMPD3) is expressed primarily in brain, and co-localizes with Golgi markers in several cell lines. The activity and phosphorylation of nSMase2 is upregulated in response to oxidative stress. In addition, nSMase2 binds calcineurin, and this interaction inhibits nSMase2 activity.

Uniprot Description

Function: Catalyzes the hydrolysis of sphingomyelin to form ceramide and phosphocholine. Ceramide mediates numerous cellular functions, such as apoptosis and growth arrest, and is capable of regulating these 2 cellular events independently. Also hydrolyzes sphingosylphosphocholine. Regulates the cell cycle by acting as a growth suppressor in confluent cells. Probably acts as a regulator of postnatal development and participates in bone and dentin mineralization. Ref.1 Ref.3 Ref.4

Catalytic activity: Sphingomyelin + H2O = N-acylsphingosine + phosphocholine.

Cofactor: Magnesium. Ref.1 Ref.4

Enzyme regulation: Activated by unsaturated fatty acids and phosphatidylserine. Ref.1

Pathway: Lipid metabolism; sphingolipid metabolism.

Subcellular location: Golgi apparatus membrane; Lipid-anchor. Cell membrane; Lipid-anchor. Note: May localize to detergent-resistant subdomains of Golgi membranes of hypothalamic neurosecretory neurons. According to Ref.4, it localizes to plasma membrane in confluent contact-inhibited cells. Ref.1 Ref.4

Tissue specificity: Predominantly expressed in brain. Ref.1

Developmental stage: Up-regulated during G0/G1 phases.

Post-translational modification: Palmitoylated, palmitoylation-deficient proteins are targeted for lysosomal degradation

By similarity.

Sequence similarities: Belongs to the neutral sphingomyelinase family.

Biophysicochemical propertiespH dependence:Optimum pH is 7.5.

Product Notes

The nSMase2 smpd3 (Catalog #AAA474603) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The nSMase2 (C-terminal region) Antibody reacts with Human, Rat, Mouse and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's nSMase2 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), ELISA (EIA), Immunocytochemistry (ICC). ELISA: 1:2000 ICC: 1:100 WB: 1:1000. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the nSMase2 smpd3 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "nSMase2, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
