Antibody Target Type: Phosphosite-specific

Antibody Phosphosite: Y369

Protein UniProt: P21980

Protein SigNET: P21980
Antibody Type: Polyclonal

Antibody Host Species: Rabbit

Antibody Immunogen Source: Human TGM2 sequence peptide Cat. No.: PE-04ADQ95

Antibody Immunogen Sequence: EGT(pY)CCG(bA)C

Antibody Immunogen Description: Corresponds to amino acid residues E366 to G372; In the region between the Transglut_core and Transglut_C domains. This is the major in vivo phosphorylation site in TGM2.

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 Concentration: 1 mg/ml

Storage Buffer: Phosphate buffered saline pH 7.4, 0.05% Thimerasol

Scientific Background: TGM2 is a member of the transglutaminase family of enzymes that catalyzes the crosslinking of proteins and the conjugation of polyamines to proteins. The protein acts as a monomer, is induced by retinoic acid, and appears to be involved in apoptosis.
