Applications in Research

The UBQLN1 Antibody, HRP conjugated, has been employed in diverse studies to investigate UBQLN1’s role in cellular processes and diseases.

2.1. Proteostasis and Mitochondrial Function

UBQLN1 is implicated in clearing mislocalized mitochondrial proteins and regulating electron transport chain (ETC) components . A study using UBQLN1 antibodies (including ELISA-based detection) demonstrated that UBQLN1 deficiency leads to mitochondrial dysfunction, marked by reduced ETC proteins and increased autophagy markers (e.g., LC3-II) .

2.2. Telomere Regulation and DNA Damage Response

Research has shown that UBQLN1 shuttles ubiquitinated RPA1 from replication forks to prevent telomere shortening . Antibodies targeting UBQLN1 (e.g., CSB-PA892477LB01HU) were used to validate RPA1-UBQLN1 interactions via co-immunoprecipitation and ELISA .

2.3. Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)

A 2024 study identified lnc-ABCA12-3 as a regulator of UBQLN1 expression in ALS models . While not directly using the HRP-conjugated antibody, the findings underscore the antibody’s potential utility in ALS research .

3.1. Immunoblot Validation

Western blot analysis of SH-SY5Y lysates (35 μg/lane) confirmed specific detection of UBQLN1 (~60 kDa) .

3.2. ELISA Protocol Example

  1. Coat plates with UBQLN1 protein (0.5–2 μg/mL).

  2. Incubate with primary antibody (1:100 dilution in PBS-T).

  3. Detect using HRP-conjugated secondary antibody and TMB substrate .

4.1. Ubiquitin Binding Specificity

Full-length UBQLN1 preferentially binds K63-linked ubiquitin chains, a specificity absent in isolated UBA domains . This property is critical for its role in autophagy and proteasomal degradation .

4.2. ALS Pathogenesis

Knockdown of lnc-ABCA12-3 reduced UBQLN1 expression, linking its dysregulation to ALS progression .

Target Background

Function
UBQLN1 plays a crucial role in regulating various protein degradation mechanisms and pathways, including the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS), autophagy, and endoplasmic reticulum-associated protein degradation (ERAD) pathway. It facilitates the proteasomal targeting of misfolded or accumulated proteins for degradation by binding to their polyubiquitin chains through its UBA domain and interacting with the proteasome subunits through its ubiquitin-like domain. UBQLN1 participates in the ERAD pathway by interacting with ER-localized proteins UBXN4, VCP, and HERPUD1, potentially bridging polyubiquitinated ERAD substrates with the proteasome. Isoform 1, isoform 2, and isoform 3 contribute to the unfolded protein response (UPR) by attenuating the induction of UPR-inducible genes (DDTI3/CHOP, HSPA5, and PDIA2) during ER stress. UBQLN1 is involved in the regulation of macroautophagy and autophagosome formation, required for the maturation of autophagy-related protein LC3 from LC3-I to LC3-II, and may facilitate autophagosome-lysosome fusion. It negatively regulates the TICAM1/TRIF-dependent toll-like receptor signaling pathway by reducing TICAM1 abundance through the autophagic pathway. Isoform 1 and isoform 3 are critical for regulating PSEN1 levels by targeting its accumulation to aggresomes, which can then be removed from cells via autophagocytosis. UBQLN1 promotes the ubiquitination and lysosomal degradation of ORAI1, consequently downregulating ORAI1-mediated Ca2+ mobilization. It suppresses the maturation and proteasomal degradation of amyloid beta A4 protein (A4) by stimulating lysine 63 (K63)-linked polyubiquitination, delaying A4 maturation by sequestering it in the Golgi apparatus and preventing its transport to the cell surface for subsequent processing.
