Data Examples

Detection of Human, Mouse, and Rat Importin beta /KPNB1 by Western Blot. Western blot shows lysates of HeLa human cervical epithelial carcinoma cell line, NIH-3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblast cell line, and Rat-2 rat embryonic fibroblast cell line. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Mouse Anti-Human Importin beta /KPNB1 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB8209) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF018). A specific band was detected for Importin beta /KPNB1 at approximately 97 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.

Importin beta /KPNB1 in HeLa Human Cell Line. Importin beta /KPNB1 was detected in immersion fixed HeLa human cervical epithelial carcinoma cell line using Mouse Anti-Human Importin beta /KPNB1 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB8209) at 25 µg/mL for 3 hours at room temperature. Cells were stained using the NorthernLights™ 557-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (red; Catalog # NL007) and counterstained with DAPI (blue). Specific staining was localized to nuclei.

Background: Importin beta/KPNB1
KPNB1 (Karyopherin subunit beta 1), also called Importin beta 1, NTF97 (nuclear transport factor, 97 kDa) or PTAC97 (pore targeting complex, 97 kDa), is a member of the Importin b family of proteins. It is ubiquitously expressed and plays many roles in the nucleus. Primarily, KPNB1 transports various complexes from cytoplasm into nucleus, either alone or with a KPNA adaptor. The 876 amino acid (aa) human KPNB1 contains an N-terminal IBB/Importin b domain (aa 21-101), and eight HEAT (solenoid) domains (aa 124-726). A 731 aa splice variant begins with Met146, while an 845 aa variant shows a 2 aa substitution for aa 702-734. Binding sites for adaptors and for its regulator, Ran-GTP, overlap within the HEAT domains. Human KPNB1 aa 1-155 shares 99% and 97% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat KPNB1, respectively.
