Antibody Code: NK112

Antibody Target Type: Pan-specific

Protein UniProt: P00540

Protein SigNET: P00540

Antibody Type: Polyclonal

Antibody Host Species: Rabbit

Antibody Immunogen Source: Human Mos sequence peptide Cat. No.:

Antibody Immunogen Sequence: ASQRSFWAELNIARLRHDNIVRVVAASTRC
Antibody Immunogen Description: Corresponds to amino acid residues A148 to R177; Kinase Catalytic Subdomain III

Production Method: The immunizing peptide was produced on an A.B.I. automated peptide synthesizer. The peptide was cleaved from the synthesis resin with HF and purified by reverse-phase hplc chromatography. Purity was assessed by analytical hplc and the amino acid sequence confirmed by amino acid 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. 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.

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

Antibody Concentration: 0.5 mg/ml

Scientific Background: Mos is a protein-serine/threonine kinase of the Other group and Mos family. During oocyte maturation, it acts as a kinase that directly phosphorylates and activates MEK1 and MEK2 in the MAP kinase signalling module. It is also known as "cytostatic factor" in unfertilized oocytes. It is activated by phosphorylation at S3, and inhibited by phosphorylation at S102. Mos was originally identified as an oncoprotein from avial retroviral studies. While it phosphorylates and activates MEK1 and MEK2, there is little evidence that it functions as an oncoprotein in human cancers.
