All-Ireland Chromatin Consortium

The All Ireland Chromatin Consortium has run an annual one-day meeting to bring together chromatin researchers from across the island of Ireland since 2022.

The All-Ireland Chromatin Consortium  (AICC) is a network of researchers on the Island of Ireland who are linked by interests to investigating all aspects of chromatin mechanisms in disease.

The aims of the AICC are to promote scientific exchange across Ireland and beyond, to foster collaborations between labs, to expand expertise in the area of chromatin biology, and to raise the visibility of Irish chromatin research.

The AICC hosts inspiring webinars by leading international and emerging researchers, and holds an annual conference as an active and dynamic forum for PhD students and Postdocs working on chromatin biology to present and discuss their work and gain state of the art knowledge.

Redefining Single-Cell Analysis: Comprehensive Intracellular Protein Profiling with InTraSeq Technology

May 28, 2026

Are you looking to capture the full picture of cellular signaling and gene expression at the single-cell level? Traditional single-cell sequencing often focuses on whole-cell transcripts or surface markers, missing the crucial intracellular dynamics orchestrated by proteins and their modifications.

This seminar focuses on InTraSeqTM Single Cell Analysis (Intracellular Protein and Transcriptomic Sequencing), a technology from CST that allows for the simultaneous detection of both RNA transcripts and intracellular proteins (including transcription factors and PTMs) from the same single cell.

Attend this session to understand the mechanics of InTraSeq Technology, see how its ability to integrate protein state (like phosphorylation) with gene expression within individual cells unlocks unprecedented insights into signaling heterogeneity, and learn how to leverage this technology to push the boundaries of single-cell biology.

Presented by: Yannick Nossin, PhD Field Application Scientist at CST

Integrin beta-5 (F9C2U) Rabbit
Monoclonal Antibody #79602

IHC-P: IHC analysis of paraffin-embedded human small cell lung carcinoma using #79602

Mediator of Cell Adhesion and Signal Transduction

Integrin beta-5 is a receptor that primarily forms the complex αVβ5 with its α subunit and binds to extracellular matrix components such as vitronectin. It plays a crucial role in regulating cell adhesion, migration, proliferation, angiogenesis, and phagocytosis. Depending on the extracel lular environment, it is known to activate FAK and MAPK/ERK pathways, promoting cell survival and proliferation, as well as sensing intracellular signals and altering interactions with the extracellular environment. Integrin αVβ5 plays an important role in growth factor-induced tumor angiogenesis, and it has been reported that coordinated signal transduction between Integrin αVβ5 and growth factors controls endothelial cell proliferation and survival. #79602 is suitable for IHC-P and IF-IC using human samples. For IF-F and IF-IC using mouse samples, #27874 is suitable

IFF-F: Confocal IF analysis of fixed frozen brain from an amyloid mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease labeled with #77438 (red), Iba1/AIF-1 (E4O4W) Feline Chimeric Monoclonal Antibody #87276 (green), TREM2 (E7O7Q) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody #89956 (gray), and ProLong Gold Antifade Reagent with DAPI
#8961 (blue). Rabbit primary antibody is detected using an anti-rabbit Fc-specific secondary antibody

Proteins that accumulate in the brain in Alzheimer’s disease

Amyloid β (Aβ) is a peptide that is cleaved from APP and aggregates and accumulates in the brain. The main variants are Aβ1-42, which has high aggregation properties and forms the nuclei of senile plaques from
the early stages of the disease, and Aβ1-40, which is characterized by deposition in the blood vessel walls (CAA: cerebral amyloid angiopathy). #77438, 51867, and 99675, which can specifically detect Aβ1-40, are chimeric antibodies in which only the Fc region has been rearranged to horse, cat, and mouse. Simultaneously, multiplex immunohistochemistry using antibodies for different host markers such as nerves and neuroin flammation allows for accurate evaluation of the spatial relationships around lesions. #77438, 51867, and 99675 are suitable for IF-F using human samples, and reactivity in mouse, rat, monkey, and bovine samples is predicted based on the homology of the recognized amino acid sequences.
