DescriptionAnti-Cullin-4A

  • CUL-4A
Background InformationCullin-4A (UniProt Q13619; also known as CUL-4A) is encoded by the CUL4A gene (Gene ID 8451) in human. CUL-4A belongs to the cullin family of hydrophobic proteins that functions as the scaffold component of E3 ubiquitin ligase complexes. CUL-4A interacts with DNA damage binding protein 1 (DDB1) and ring of cullins (ROC1) to assemble the E3 complex, where DDB1 acts a linker protein for CUL4 and recruits substrates to the CUL4-ROC1 catalytic core through interaction with a subset of WD40 proteins. At least 90 DDB1-binding WD40 (DWD) proteins (also known as DCAF for Ddb1- and Cul4-associated factors and CDW for CUL4 and DDB1-associated WD40 repeats) are known, suggesting a large number of potential substrates for CUL4-ROC1 ligase complexes. CUL4-ROC1 E3 ligase complexes play important roles in cell cycle, DNA replication, genomic stability, haematopoiesis, and spermatogenesis. CUL-4A is highly expressed in testis and spleen, while poor expression is found in lung, liver, thymus, small intestine, and muscular tissues. CUL4A gene amplification has been demonstrated in many kinds of tumors, including hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC), squamous cell carcinomas, and adrenocortical carcinoma. CUL4A silencing is reported to suppress the motility of HCC cells and reverse their epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) tendency.

Applications
ApplicationDetect Cul4A using this rabbit polyclonal Anti-Cullin-4A, Cat. No. ABS1584, validated for use in Immune Complex Enzyme Assay, Immunoprecipitation, and Western Blotting.
Key Applications
  • Western Blotting
Application NotesWestern Blotting Analysis: A 1:500 dilution from a representative lot detected Cullin-4A in 10 µg of HeLa cell lysate.

Enzyme Assay: A representative lot immunoprecipitated cullin-4A complex from HeLa cell lysate for a subsequent in vitro Myc-CDT1 ubiquitination reaction in the presence of ubiquitin (Ub), E1 & E2 enzymes. RNAi-mediated DDB1, but not DDB2, knockdown prior to IP prevented a successful cullin-4A immune complex-dependent ubiquitination reaction (Hu, J., et al. (2004). Nat. Cell Biol. 6(10):1003-1009).

Immunoprecipitation Analysis: Representative lots immunoprecipitated both unmodified and NEDD8-modified (NEDDylated) endogenouse cullin-4A together with associated proteins (including CAND1, CSN1-8, DDB1, and VprBP) from human BT474, U2OS, HEK293T, and HeLa cells (McCall, C.M., et al. (2008). Mol. Cell. Biol. 28(18):5621-5633; Hu, J., et al. (2004). Nat. Cell Biol. 6(10):1003-1009).

Immunoprecipitation Analysis: A representative lot immunoprecipitated Myc3-cullin-4A HEK293T cells. Myc-CDT1 was co-immunoprecipitated with Myc3-cullin-4A only in the presence of exogenously expressed T7-DDB1. RNAi-mediated CAND1-knockdown enhanced T7-DDB1 co-IP, while DDB1 knockdown enhanced myc-CAND1 co-IP (Hu, J., et al. (2004). Nat. Cell Biol. 6(10):1003-1009).

Western Blotting Analysis: A representative lot detected both unmodified and NEDD8-modified (NEDDylated) endogenous cullin-4A in whole cell lysates (U2OS, WI-38/E6, HeLa) or chromatin fractions (HeLa and HCT116), in VprBP and cullin-4A immunoprecipitates (U2OS), as well as in VprBP-, DDB1-, CDT1-, CSN5-containing complexes fractionated from HeLa S3 cell lysate by gel filtration (McCall, C.M., et al. (2008). Mol. Cell. Biol. 28(18):5621-5633).

Western Blotting Analysis: A representative lot detected both unmodified and NEDD8-modified (NEDDylated) endogenous cullin-4A in HEK293T and HeLa cell lysates, as well as in T7-tag and Myc-tag immunoprecipitates from HEK293T cells expressing transfected T7-DDB1 and Myc-CAND1 (Hu, J., et al. (2004). Nat. Cell Biol. 6(10):1003-1009).
