In Vitro

Congo Red histochemical stain may serve as a simple screening tool for investigating if the aggregates in mutant cells have misfolded β-pleated sheet secondary structures. Congo Red histochemical dye has the ability to bind specifically to crossed β-pleated sheet structures. Wild-type HSPB1 should maintain protein homeostasis by binding proteins in non-native conformations, thereby preventing substrate aggregation. The T139M mutant, however, fails in this function and results in an accumulation of misfolded proteins, which are targeted by Congo Red for intercalating between the β-pleated sheet structures. Congo Red histochemical stain may serve as a simple tool to investigate if the aggregates in mutant cells have misfolded β-pleated sheet secondary structures[1].

Cell Assay 
[1]

HeLa cells are selected for these studies due to their large cytoplasmic volume. Cells transfected with mutant or wild-type HSPB1 constructs are grown on coverslips for 24 hr and then are stained with Congo red to determine if the aggregates display amyloidogenic properties. Briefly, cells are first fixed with 10% formalin for 10 min and stained with 1% Congo red for 5 min, followed by destaining with 0.01% potassium hydroxide in 50% ethanol. Coverslips are then passed through graded ethanol concentrations for dehydration and mounted in a mounting medium and examined by fluorescent microscopy under rhodamine filter[1].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
