Western blot (WB); separation of proteins by PAGE and subsequent transfer to a membrane. Detection of target molecules is carried out with antibodies. Some antibodies require special sample preparation steps. For details, please refer to the “Remarks” section.

Immunoprecipitation (IP); Immunoisolation or pulldown of a target molecule using an antibody. For details and product specific hints, please refer to the ”Remarks” section.

Immunocytochemistry (ICC) on 4% PFA fixed cells. Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence. Some antibodies require special fixation methods. For details, please refer to the “Remarks” section.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC) on 4% PFA perfusion fixed tissue with 24h PFA post fixation. Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence or a chromogenic substrate. Some antibodies require special fixation methods or antigen retrieval steps. For details, please refer to the ”Remarks” section.

Immunohistochemistry (IHC-P) of formalin fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue (some antibodies require special antigen retrieval steps, please refer to the ”Remarks” section). Immunoreactivity is usually revealed by fluorescence or a chromogenic substrate.

Background

The glycoprotein prosaposin is a precursor oft the sphingolipid activator proteins saposins A, B, C, and D also called (SAP-A, SAP-B, SAP-C and SAP-D). Prosaposin is targeted to lysosomes where it is proteolytically processed to the final SAP products.

Saposins are indispensable for lysosomal hydrolysis of sphingolipids and the lack of each saposin leads to a lysosomal storage disease. Sap-D-deficient mice accumulate ceramides with hydroxylated fatty acids mainly in brain and kidney.
