Antibody Code: PK738

Antibody Target Type: Phosphosite-specific

Antibody Phosphosite: T185

Protein UniProt: O95747

Protein SigNET: O95747

Antibody Type: Polyclonal

Antibody Host Species: Rabbit

Antibody Immunogen Source: Human OSR1 (OXSR1) sequence peptide Cat. No.: PE-04AOG99

Antibody Immunogen Sequence: VRK(pT)FVG(bA)C

Antibody Immunogen Description: Corresponds to amino acid residues V182 to G188; In the protein kinase catalytic domain activation T loop region between subdomains VII and VIII.

Production Method: The immunizing peptide was produced by solid phase synthesis on a multipep peptide synthesizer and purified by reverse-phase hplc chromatography. Purity was assessed by analytical hplc and the amino acid sequence confirmed by mass spectrometry analysis. This peptide was coupled to KLH prior to immunization into rabbits. New Zealand White rabbits were subcutaneously injected with KLH-coupled immunizing peptide every 4 weeks for 4 months. The sera from these animals was applied onto an agarose column to which the immunogen peptide was thio-linked. Antibody was eluted from the column with 0.1 M glycine, pH 2.5. Subsequently, the antibody solution was neutralized to pH 7.0 with saturated Tris.This antibody was also subject to negative purification over phosphotyrosine-agarose.

Antibody Modification: Unconjugated. Contact KInexus if you are interest in having the antibody biotinylated or coupled with fluorescent dyes.

Scientific Background: OSR1 (OXSR1) is a protein-serine/threonine kinase of the STE group and STE20 family. It is activated by stress, and may mediate actin cytoskeleton rearrangement. Phosphorylation of OSR1 at T185 (in the kinase activation loop) and S325 are stimulatory for phosphotransferase activity. A K46A mutation in OSR1 led to the inhibition of autophosphorylation and it prevented activation of phosphotransferase activity. The K36M mutation was noted to prevent phosphorylation of RELT, RELL1, and RELL2, though it is possibility that other kinases in the solution may have been able to still generate a complex with OSR1. In gastric cancer, OSR1 is believed to be methylated in the promoter region inducing down-regulation of gene transcription, leading to disease. Insertional mutagenesis studies in mice support a role for this protein kinase in mouse cancer oncogenesis.
