Antibody Phosphosite: S406

Protein UniProt: Q8IVT5

Protein SigNET: Q8IVT5

Antibody Type: Polyclonal

Antibody Host Species: Rabbit

Antibody Immunogen Source: Human Ksr1 sequence peptide Cat. No.: PE-04ANE99

Antibody Immunogen Sequence: RTE(pS)VPS(bA)C

Antibody Immunogen Description: Corresponds to amino acid residues R401 to S407; In the region between the Ksr1-SAM and kinase catalytic domains. This is the major in vivo phosphorylation site in Krs1.

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: Ksr1 (kinase suppressor of Ras 1) is a protein-serine/threonine kinase of the TKL group and RAF family. It is a Raf-related pseudokinase and may directly mediate Raf activation. It acts as a scaffold for the Raf/MEK/ERK kinase cascade. No specific mutations have been directly implicated in oncogenesis although loss of Ksr1 function will blunt the Ras pathway and therefore attenuate its oncogenic potential.
