Product Type Specific: Protein kinase phosphosite-specific antibody
Antibody Code: PK798
Antibody Target Type: Phosphosite-specific
Antibody Phosphosite: Y913
Protein UniProt: Q13464 Protein SigNET: Q13464 Antibody Type: Polyclonal
Antibody Host Species: Rabbit
Antibody Immunogen Source: Human Rock1 (ROKb) sequence peptide Cat. No.: PE-04APL99
Antibody Immunogen Sequence: EEQ(pY)FEL(bA)C
Antibody Immunogen Description: Corresponds to amino acid residues E910 to L916; Just before Rho-Binding domain. This is the major in vivo phosphorylation site in Rock1.
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.

Antibody Species Reactivity: Human
Scientific Background: Rock1 (ROK-beta) is a protein-serine/threonine kinase of the AGC group and DMPK family. It is a key regulator of actin cytoskeleton and cell polarity. It is activated by binding the small G protein RhoA. D1113A substitution leads to abolished cleavage by caspase-3. Down-regulating Rock1 may be useful strategy for inhibiting migration and invasion of glioma and gastric cancer.
