Scientific Data

Detection of Matriptase/ST14 Catalytic Domain in PC‑3 Human Cell Line by Flow Cytometry. PC-3 human prostate cancer cell line was stained with Sheep Anti-Human Matriptase/ST14 Catalytic Domain Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF3946, filled histogram) or control antibody (5-001-A, open histogram), followed by NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (NL010). To facilitate intracellular staining, cells were fixed with paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with saponin.

Background: Matriptase/ST14
Human matriptase, encoded by the ST14 (suppression of tumorogenicity 14) gene, is also known as tumor associated differentially expressed gene 15 protein/TADG‑15), epithin, and membrane-type serine protease 1/MT-SP1 (1). Predicted to have a significant role in tumor biology, matriptase may be a novel target for anti-cancer therapy (2). However, expressed in most human epithelia, matriptase is also important in several physiological processes (1). For example, it activates prostasin to initiate a protease cascade that is essential for epidermal differentiation (3), and it converts a single-chain IGFBP-rp1 into the two-chain form (4).
Matriptase is a type II transmembrane serine protease with a complex modular structure (1). The 855 amino acid (aa) sequence of human matriptase consists of a cytoplasmic tail (aa 1-55), a transmembrane domain (aa 56-76), and an extracellular portion (aa 77-855). The latter contains the following domains: SEA (aa 86-201), two CUBs (aa 214-334 and 340-447), four LDLRAs (aa 452-486, 487-523, 524-560, and 566-603), and a serine protease (aa 615-855). The physiological activation of the single-chain zymogen requires the cleavage at the SEA domain within the ER or Golgi, association with HAI-1, which facilitates the transport of the protease to the cell surface, and auto-cleavage at QAR-V(615)VGG (1). The activated matriptase is inhibited by HAI-1, and the resulting HAI-1 complex can be shed from the cell surface (1). R&D Systems rhST14 corresponds to the catalytic domain, and is inhibited effectively by rhHAI-1 and rhHAI-2A (R&D Systems, Catalog # 1048-PI and 1106-PI).

FAQs

Why is intracellular flow staining performed with Human Matriptase/ST14 Catalytic Domain Antibody (Catalog #s MAB3946 and AF3946) when Human Matripase is a type II transmembrane serine protease?
We have performed intracellular staining with Catalog #s MAB3946 and AF3946 because when PC-3 and some other cell lines were tested using the surface staining protocol, the results were negative. It is possible that the level of expression of this protein is too low to be detected on the surface. Furthermore, with optimization of staining, one may be able to detect protein on the surface.

0.44 ug recombinant matriptase catalytic domain (R&D; Catalog Number: 3946-SEB) were used in a biochemical cleavage assay. Samples were analyzed under denaturing/reducing conditions by SDS-PAGE/western blot and stained using this matriptase catalytic domain antibody (0.1 ug/ml; blocking 1x supplemented with 10 % milk). I would recommend this antibody.
Full length matriptase was overexpressed exclusively or co-overexpressed with its human inhibitor in Drosophila S2R+ cells. After three days incubation, supernatants of cells were examined under denaturing/reducing conditions using SDS-PAGE/western blot and antibody staining. The antibody stains three forms of matriptase: the mature and shedded matriptase as well as the catalytic domain.
