Biological Description

Specificity	Phospho-Lamin A/C (Ser22) Rabbit mAb recognizes endogenous levels of lamin A/C protein only when phosphorylated at Ser22.
Background	Phospho-Lamin A/C (Ser22) is a phosphorylated form of Lamin A/C, a type-V intermediate filament protein, encoded by the LMNA gene, which forms part of the nuclear lamina beneath the inner nuclear membrane. Lamin A/C, a tripartite is structured into a non-helical N-terminal head domain (containing Ser22), a central α-helical coiled-coil rod domain, and a C-terminal immunoglobulin-like fold. Phosphorylation at Ser22, mediated by kinases such as CDK1/cyclin B, PKC, and CK2, occurs during specific cell cycle stages and cellular contexts. This modification regulates nuclear stability, cell cycle progression, and signaling through the LINC complex. Phospho-Ser22 Lamin A/C is also involved in modulating ion channels like Nav1.5 and can act as a transcriptional activator by binding enhancer domains. Increased Ser22 phosphorylation enhances Lamin A mobility, potentially destabilizing the nuclear lamina, as observed in diseases like Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS).

WB	Experimental Protocol: Sample preparation 1. Tissue: Lyse the tissue sample by adding an appropriate volume of ice-cold RIPA/Nuclear Lysis Buffer (containing Protease Inhibitor Cocktail, Phosphatase Inhibitor Cocktail)，and homogenize the tissue at a low temperature or lyse it by sonication on ice, then incubate on ice for 30 minutes. 2. Adherent cell: Aspirate the culture medium and transfer the cells into an EP tube. Wash the cells with ice-cold PBS twice. Add an appropriate volume of RIPA/Nuclear Lysis Buffer (containing Protease Inhibitor Cocktail, Phosphatase Inhibitor Cocktail), sonicate to lyse the cells, and incubate on ice for 30 minutes. 3. Suspension cell: Transfer the culture medium to a pre-cooled centrifuge tube. Centrifuge and aspirate the supernatant. Wash the cells with ice-cold PBS twice.Add an appropriate volume of RIPA/Nuclear Lysis Buffer (containing Protease Inhibitor Cocktail, Phosphatase Inhibitor Cocktail), sonicate to lyse the cells, and incubate on ice for 30 minutes. 4. Place the lysate into a pre-cooled microcentrifuge tube. Centrifuge at 4°C for 15 min. Collect the supernatant; 5. Remove a small volume of lysate to determine the protein concentration; 6. Combine the lysate with protein loading buffer. Boil 20 µL sample under 95-100°C for 5 min. Centrifuge for 5 min after cool down on ice. Electrophoretic separation 1.

Then the power supply is adjusted (110 V~150 V), the Marker is observed, and the electrophoresis can be stopped when the indicator band of the predyed protein Marker where the protein is located is properly separated. (Note that the current should not be too large when electrophoresis, too large current (more than 150 mA) will cause the temperature to rise, affecting the result of running glue. If high currents cannot be avoided, an ice bath can be used to cool the bath.) Transfer membrane 1. Take out the converter, soak the clip and consumables in the pre-cooled converter; 2.
