Specificity / Sensitivity

GOLGA4/GOLGIN-245 Antibody recognizes endogenous levels of total GOLGA4/GOLGIN-245 protein.

Species Reactivity:

Human, Mouse, Rat

Source / Purification

Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Asn2160 of human GOLGA4/GOLGIN-245 protein. Antibodies are purified by peptide affinity chromatography.

Background

The Golgi-associated protein golgin A1 (GOLGA1, golgin-97) was first isolated as a Golgi complex autoantigen associated with the autoimmune disorder Sjogren's syndrome (1). The golgin-97 protein contains a carboxy-terminal GRIP domain and is a commonly used trans-Golgi network (TGN) marker. All four known mammalian GRIP domain-containing proteins (golgin-97, golgin-245, GCC88, and GCC185) are found in the TGN, share extensive alpha-helical structure, and form homodimers (2). While all four golgin proteins localize to the TGN, they exhibit different membrane-binding abilities and are found in distinct TGN regions (3). Golgin-97 and golgin-245 are targeted to the TGN through an interaction between their GRIP domains and the Arl1 protein switch II region (4). Overexpression studies and siRNA assays with GRIP domain-containing proteins suggest that these proteins help to maintain TGN integrity and function by controlling localization of TGN resident proteins (5). By using a Shiga toxin B fragment (STxB)-based in vitro transport assay and an E-cadherin transport model system, golgin-97 and its effector Arl1-GTP were shown to play a role in trans-Golgi endosomal trafficking (6,7). Research studies also suggest that golgin-97 may play a role in poxvirus morphogenesis and maturation (8,9).

Species Reactivity

Species reactivity is determined by testing in at least one approved application (e.g., western blot).

Western Blot Buffer

IMPORTANT: For western blots, incubate membrane with diluted primary antibody in 5% w/v BSA, 1X TBS, 0.1% Tween® 20 at 4°C with gentle shaking, overnight.
