Background

The product of this gene belongs to the peptidase C56 family of proteins. It acts as a positive regulator of androgen receptor-dependent transcription. It may also function as a redox-sensitive chaperone, as a sensor for oxidative stress, and it apparently protects neurons against oxidative stress and cell death. Defects in this gene are the cause of autosomal recessive early-onset Parkinson disease 7. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified for this gene.

Western blotting analysis using anti-PARK7 antibody (Cat#64982). Total cell lysates (10 μg for H9c2, and 30 μg for others) from various cell lines were loaded and separated by SDS-PAGE. The blot was incubated with anti-PARK7 antibody (Cat#64982, 1:1,000) and HRP-conjugated goat anti-rabbit secondary antibody (Cat#201, 1:20,000) respectively. Image was developed using NaQ™ ECL Substrate Kit (Cat#716).

Western blotting analysis using anti-PARK7 antibody (Cat#64982). PARK7 expression in wild-type (WT) and PARK7 shRNA knockdown (KD) HeLa cells with 20 μg of total cell lysates. Hsp90 α serves as a loading control. The blot was incubated with anti-PARK7 antibody (Cat#64982, 1:1,000) and HRP-conjugated goat anti-rabbit secondary antibody (Cat#201, 1:20,000) respectively. Image was developed using FeQ™ ECL Substrate Kit (Cat#226).
