General description

The identification of protein phosphorylation as a regulatory mechanism originated from studies by Fischer and Krebs in the mid 1950s that later earned them the 1992 Nobel prize. It is the major mechanism for the regulation of diverse cellular processes including cell division, protein synthesis, transcriptional regulation and neurotransmission. The steady state phosphorylation of any given substrate is governed by the opposing activities of kinases and phosphatases. It is now believed that a third of all eukaryotic cellular proteins are phosphorylated and that the majority of all phosphorylation events occur on serine and threonine residues (>95%).

Specificity

This antibody recognizes serine-phosphorylated proteins from all species.

Immunogen

Phosphoserine coupled to KLH.

Quality

Routinely evaluated by Western Blot analysis on lysate from Calyculin A/Okadaic-treated human A431 carcinoma cells.

Western Blot Analysis:
0.5–2 μg/mL of this lot detected serinephosphorylated proteins in a lysate from either insulin or Calyculin A/Okadaic-treated human A431 carcinoma cells.

Target description

Dependent upon the molecular weight of the serine phosphorylated protein being detected.

Physical form

Format: Purified
Protein G-Sepharose Chromatography
Purified mouse monoclonal IgG1 in buffer containing PBS with 0.1% sodium azide and 30% glycerol.

It is well established that the tumorigenic potential of nucleophosmin (NPM)-anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), an oncogenic tyrosine kinase, is dependent on its tyrosine phosphorylation. Using tandem affinity purification-mass spectrometry, we found evidence of phosphorylation of three serine residues of NPM-ALK
