SMURF2 Knockout HeLa Cell Lysate Summary

• Preparation Method: Knockout achieved by using CRISPR/Cas9,5 bp deletion in exon 5 and 1 bp insertion in exon 5
• Gene: SMURF2

Applications/Dilutions

• Dilutions:
  • Western Blot
• Application Notes: You will receive 1 vial (100ug) of knockout cell lysate and 1 vial (100ug) of Parental cell lysate. Lysate can be diluted with 1X SDS sample buffer and will be stable at -20 degrees C for 12 months. Minimize freeze-thaw cycles.

Packaging, Storage & Formulations

• Storage: Store at -20C short term. Aliquot and store at -80C long term. Avoid freeze-thaw cycles.
• Buffer: 0.1 mg cell homogenate lyophilized in RIPA buffer made with double-knockout cell lines.
• Concentration: LYOPH
• Reconstitution Instructions: To use as WB negative control, spin down briefly and resuspend in 100 uL 1xSDS sample buffer (2% SDS, 60 mM Tris-HCl pH 6.8, 10% Glycerol, 0.02% Bromophenol blue, 60 mM beta-mercaptoethanol). Boil the lysate for 3 - 5 minutes before loading it onto gel.

Notes

Powered by EDIGENE.
Validation of antibody specificity is critical and verification of antibody performance against knockout samples is one way to guarantee that an antibody recognizes a specific target. Novus' KO cell lysate can be used as a negative control for western blots and to confirm the specificity of antibodies.

Background

Smad ubiquitination regulatory factor proteins (Smurf1 and Smurf2) are E3 ubiquitin ligase that belongs to the Hect family. Smurf proteins play an important role as regulators in TGF-beta pathway by ubiquitinating Smads and Smads associated proteins for proteasome degradation (1). Specifically, Smurf1 interacts with Smad1 and Smad5 for degradation, while Smurf2 ubiquitinates Smad1 and Smad2. Smads also functions to recruit Smurfs to various pathway components such as TGF-beta and SnoN. In particular, Smad7 acts as an adaptor protein between Smurfs and TGF-Beta receptors, allowing the receptors to be marked by Smurfs for degradation (2). Smurf2 interacts with all members of Smad family except for Smad4 and it is expressed various tissues and cell lines, such as placenta and ovarian cancer cell lines. Smurf2 has been implicated in the tumor formation and diseases progression (3).
