Immunofluorescence

Application NotesGel Shift (2 µg)
Immunoblotting (2 µg/ml)
Immunofluorescence (2 µg/ml)
Immunoprecipitation (2 µg)
Application CommentsPLZF, which migrates on SDS/PAGE as an 81 kDa protein, is expressed at low levels in HL60 cells but at higher levels in myelodysplastic cells treated with the calcium ionophore A23187. Immunoprecipitation of PLZF from total cell lysate using Cat. No. OP128 followed by immunoblotting with Cat. No. OP128 can be used to detect low level expression of PLZF. The PLZF protein can be detected in human erythroleukemia cells and in CD34+ progenitor cells in addition to HL60 and KG1 cells. Anti-PLZF will also detect the PLZF-RARα fusion protein expressed in APL cells carrying the t(11;17)(q23;q21) translocation but not the RARα-PLZF fusion protein generated by the reciprocal translocation.(J. Licht, per. comm.) Antibody should be titrated for optimal results in individual systems.

DescriptionPurified mouse monoclonal antibody generated by immunizing mice with the specified immunogen and fusing splenocytes to myeloma cells (see application references). Recognizes the ~81 kDa PLZF protein.
BackgroundThe promyelocytic leukemia zinc finger (PLZF) gene, first identified by its fusion with the RARα locus in a therapy resistant form of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) that is associated with the t(11;17)(q23;q21) translocation, encodes a 673 amino acid protein with nine Kruppel-like zinc fingers. PLZF is a sequence-specific DNA binding protein, highly conserved throughout vertebrate evolution, that is differentially expressed during embryogenesis and in adult tissues. The highest expression of PLZF occurs in multipotent, undifferentiated hematopietic progenitor cells and then declines following differentiation. PLZF is also expressed during development of the vertebrate hindbrain and may be critical for regulating boundary cell interactions. Recently, PLZF was shown to be a negative regulator of cell cycle progression capable of causing growth suppression leading to accumulation of cells in the G0/G1 stage of the cell cycle as well as a corresponding increased incidence of cells undergoing apoptosis. One target of PLZF is the cyclin A2 gene; PLZF can repress the cyclin A2 promoter and suppress growth while enforced expression of cyclin A2 reverts the growth suppressed phenotype of myeloid cells expressing PLZF. The RARα-PLZF fusion protein, generated in the t(11;17)(q23;q21)-form of APL, activates cyclin A2 transcription. Thus, inhibition of cyclin A2 expression may contribute to the growth suppressive properties of PLZF whereas deregulation of cyclin A2 by RARα-PLZF may represent an oncogenic mechanism of this chimeric protein. In addition to its role in hindbrain development, PLZF may contribute to the quiescent state of hematopoietic progenitor cells such that disruption of this activity in the therapy-resistant t(11;17)(q23;q21)-form of APL contributes to the drug-resistant character of this disease.
