Anti-Phosphotyrosine (clone M375), anti-human, mouse, rat, chicken

Background:
Phosphorylation of specific tyrosine residues is an important post-translational modification for regulating the activity of most proteins. Stimulation of a variety of cell signaling pathways activates the receptor and non-receptor tyrosine kinases that mediate these protein modifications. Antibodies that can detect phosphotyrosine residues are excellent tools for characterizing changes in the post-translational state of a broad range of phosphotyrosine-containing proteins. Immunoprecipitation of proteins of interest, followed by detection of phosphotyrosine using anti-phosphotyrosine antibody is commonly used to correlate changes in tyrosine phosphorylation state with alterations in protein activity.

Immunogen: Clone M375 was generated from tyrosine phosphorylated proteins purified from pervanadate treated A431 cells.

Specificity: This antibody detects phosphotyrosine-containing proteins on SDS-PAGE immunoblots of EGF treated A431 cells, as well as pervanadate treated A431, HeLa, Jurkat, and endothelial cells.

Buffer/Storage:
Mouse monoclonal antibody purified with protein A chromatography is supplied in 100µl phosphate-buffered saline, 50% glycerol, 1 mg/ml BSA, and 0.05% sodium azide. Store at –20°C. Stable for 1 year.
