Western Blot: p62/SQSTM1 Antibody [NBP1-42821] - HeLa cells were treated with (+) or without 50 uM (-) of Chloriquine (CQ) for 24 hours. Total cell lysates were prepared and separated on a 12% gel by SDS-PAGE. Protein was transferred to PVDF membrane and blocked in 5% non-fat milk. The membrane was then probed with 2 ug/ml anti-p62/SQSMT1 in 1% milk and detected with an anti-rabbit HRP secondary antibody using chemiluminescence. Note the upregulation of p62 (arrowhead) in response to chloroquine treatment and the blockage of autophagy.

Background: p62/SQSTM1

p62/SQSTM1 (ubiquitin-binding protein p62/Sequestrosome-1) is an intracellular protein (theoretical molecular weight 47.7 kDa) which localizes to the cytoplasm, nucleus, autophagosomes and lysosomes in all tissues (1). Structurally, p62/SQSTM1 consists of multiple domains (e.g., Phox1 and Bem1p-PB1, zinc finger-ZZ, TRAF6 binding domain-TB, Keap1-interacting region-KIR, LC3 interacting region-LIR and ubiquitin-associated domain-UBA) for interaction with various protein targets. Additional domains include nuclear export (NES) and nuclear localization signals (NLS1 and NLS2). p62/SQSTM1 is a multifunctional scaffold protein which forms oligomers with itself or with other proteins through interactions with PB1 domains.

Abnormal function of p62/SQSTM1 is associated with a range of disease states such as neurodegeneration, cancer, and metabolic disorders (2). Mutations in the p62/SQSTM1 sequence have been linked to Paget's disease of the bone, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and frontotemporal lobar degeneration. In Parkinson's disease, p62/SQSTM1 has been linked to microglia activation and subsequent neuroinflammation (3). Functionally, p62/SQSTM1 is involved in a broad range of cellular processes such as amino acid sensing by interaction with mTORC1, oxidative stress response through interaction with Keap1, and targeting cargo for autophagy by interacting with ubiquitin labeled proteins (1).

To induce selective autophagy, p62/SQSTM1 forms long oligomers or helical filaments which interact with LC3 and ubiquitin labeled proteins and lead to the initiation of the autophagosome formation (2). p62/SQSTM1 is not only a selective autophagy receptor but also an autophagy substrate, as its engulfed by the autophagosome and degraded by the autophagolysosome. Monitoring LC3 levels is the standard for assessing autophagic flux, however monitoring p62/SQSTM1 levels by Western blot in the presence and absence of autophagy inhibitors (e.g., Chloroquine) is also a common practice (4). Besides its activity as a selective autophagy receptor, p62/SQSTM1 also plays a role as an adaptor in signaling cascades leading to NFkB activation downstream of TNF-R, IL-1 beta R, TrkA and p75NTR. Briefly, for NFkB signaling downstream of the TNF-R activation, p62/SQSTM1 engages RIP1 kinase and PKC iota/lambda through the ZZ and PB1 domains, respectively (5).

Procedure Guide for NBP1-42821 - SQSTM1 Antibody
Western Blot Protocol
1. Perform SDS-PAGE (4-12% MOPS) on samples to be analyzed, loading 40 ug of total protein per lane.
2. Transfer proteins to Nitrocellulose according to the instructions provided by the manufacturer of the transfer
apparatus.
3. Rinse membrane with dH2O and then stain the blot using Ponceau S for 1-2 minutes to access the transfer of
proteins onto the nitrocellulose membrane. Rinse the blot in water to remove excess stain and mark the lane locations
and locations of molecular weight markers using a pencil.
4. Rinse the blot in TBS for approximately 5 minutes.
5. Block the membrane using 5% BSA in TBS + Tween, 1 hour at RT.
6. Rinse the membrane in dH2O and then wash the membrane in wash buffer [TBS + 0.1% Tween] 3 times for 10
minutes each.
7. Dilute the rabbit anti-SQSTM1 primary antibody (NBP1-42821) in blocking buffer and incubate 1 hour at room
temperature.
8. Rinse the membrane in dH2O and then wash the membrane in wash buffer [TBS + 0.1% Tween] 3 times for 10
minutes each.
9. Apply the diluted rabbit-IgG HRP-conjugated secondary antibody in blocking buffer (as per manufacturers
instructions) and incubate 1 hour at room temperature.
10. Wash the blot in wash buffer [TBS + 0.1% Tween] 3 times for 10 minutes each (this step can be repeated as
required to reduce background).
11. Apply the detection reagent of choice in accordance with the manufacturers instructions (Pierce ECL).
Note: Tween-20 can be added to the blocking or antibody dilution buffer at a final concentration of 0.05-0.2%, provided
it does not interfere with antibody-antigen binding.
