Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the SQSTM1/p62 sqstm1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "SQSTM1/p62, Monoclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions

What is p62/SQSTM1 used as a marker for in autophagy studies?
p62/SQSTM1 (sequestosome 1) is a multifunctional adaptor protein serving as a direct marker of autophagic flux. p62 associates with ubiquitinated protein aggregates and delivers them to autophagosomes via LC3 interaction, then undergoes degradation within autolysosomes. Therefore, p62 accumulation indicates impaired autophagy, while depletion indicates active autophagic progression.
Can a p62 antibody be used to detect protein aggregates in cells?
Yes, p62 specifically recognizes and binds ubiquitinated protein aggregates through its UBA (ubiquitin-binding associated) domain, making this antibody excellent for detecting aggregate pathology. In immunofluorescence, p62-positive puncta visualize intracellular aggregates. In Western blot, p62 levels quantify aggregate burden, making the antibody invaluable for studying neurodegenerative diseases.
Is the p62 antibody suitable for Western blot or immunofluorescence applications?
Yes, this polyclonal is validated for both applications. In Western blot, it detects p62 at its expected molecular weight (~62 kDa, though calculated MW is 48 kDa due to post-translational modifications). In immunofluorescence, it produces bright punctate staining reflecting p62-positive aggregates, allowing quantitative assessment of autophagy flux changes.
How does p62 expression change during autophagy or stress conditions?
Under normal conditions, p62 maintains relatively stable baseline levels. During acute autophagy induction (nutrient starvation), p62 accumulates transiently as autophagosomes form, then rapidly decreases as autophagic flux progresses. Under chronic stress or autophagy inhibition (Bafilomycin A1, ATG gene knockouts), p62 accumulates to high levels, marking blocked autophagic degradation.
Can p62 antibody be used to study neurodegenerative or cancer research?
Yes, p62 is extensively used in both fields. In neurodegeneration (Alzheimer's, Huntington's, ALS), p62-positive aggregates accumulate, marking pathological protein inclusions correlating with disease severity. In cancer, altered p62 levels influence cell survival, metastatic potential, and chemotherapy resistance through autophagy-dependent and independent mechanisms.
Does fixation method affect p62 staining quality?
Yes, the fixation method significantly impacts detection. Formalin or PFA fixation (4%, 15-30 minutes) provides optimal preservation of p62 protein structure and epitope accessibility. Prolonged fixation (>30 minutes) or cross-linking can reduce antibody penetration and signal intensity. Methanol or acetone may disrupt p62's membrane-associated organization; brief PFA fixation maintains p62 aggregate morphology.
