General description

Calcineurin is a serine/threonine protein phosphatase involved in the mediation of signal tranduction in a wide variety of cellular responses. Calcineurin has been linked to Pmk1 MAP kinase and PI pathways, as well as to members of the small GTPase Rab/Ypt family and Type II myosin. Furthermore, calcineurin participates in the transduction of extracellular signals to the nucleus by dephosphorylation of members of the NFAT family of transcription factors. These linkages demonstrate calcineurin′s multifunctional capabilities in the regulation of calcium signaling.

Specificity

This antibody recognizes both the Aα and Aβ, the major catalytic subunit gene isoforms of calcineurin in most tissues; may also react with the testis form, Aγ. This antibody has very high sensitivity and specificity, which allow detection of calcineurin in tissues where expression is low, such as lymphoid tissue. Reacts with calcineurin of all mammalian species.

Prior exercise by rats can induce a sustained increase in muscle Akt substrate of 160 kDa (AS160) phosphorylation on Thr(642) (pAS160(Thr642)). Because phosphorylation of AS160 on both AS160(Thr642) and AS160(Ser588) is important for insulin-stimulated glucose transport (GT), we determined if

When a neurotrophin binds at the presynapse, it sends survival signals all the way to the nucleus on signaling endosomes. These endosomes fuel their own journey with on-board glycolysis—but how is that journey initiated and maintained? Using microfluidic devices and
