Peptide Name: Cofilin 1 (137-143) pY140

Product Use: Services as a blocking peptide for use with the Cofilin 1-pY140 rabbit polyclonal antibody (Cat. No.: AB-PN506) that is also available from Kinexus. This phosphopeptide may also be useful as a substrate for screening the phosphatase activity of protein phosphatases. The peptide sequence is located near the end of the Cofilin_ADF domain. This is the major in vivo phosphorylation site in Cofilin 1. The effect of its phosphorylation is unclear.

Scientific Background: Cofilin 1 interacts with F-actin and exhibits pH-sensitive F-actin depolymerizing activity. It regulates actin cytoskeleton dynamics, and is important for normal progress through mitosis and normal cytokinesis. It plays a role in the regulation of cell morphology and cytoskeletal organization. It is required for the up-regulation of atypical chemokine receptor ACKR2 from endosomal compartment to cell membrane, which increases its efficiency in chemokine uptake and degradation.
