Target Alias: Cavin-1; Leucine-zipper protein FKSG13

Product Type Specific: PTRF phosphosite-specific antibody

Antibody Code: PN533

Antibody Target Type: Phosphosite-specific

Antibody Phosphosite: Y308

Protein UniProt: Q6NZI2

Protein SigNET: Q6NZI2

Antibody Type: Polyclonal

Antibody Host Species: Rabbit

Antibody Immunogen Source: Human PTRF sequence peptide Cat. No.: PE-04AEP95

Antibody Immunogen Sequence: HVV(pY)ARS(bA)C

Antibody Immunogen Description: Corresponds to amino acid residues H305 to S311

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: PTRF plays an important role in caveolae formation and organization. It is required for the sequestration of mobile caveolin into immobile caveolae. Termination of transcription by RNA polymerase I involves pausing of transcription by TTF1, and the dissociation of the transcription complex, releasing pre-rRNA and RNA polymerase I from the template. PTRF is required for dissociation of the ternary transcription complex.
