Accession No.: P49407; P32121

Description:
Beta-arrestins function in regulating agonist-mediated G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling by mediating both receptor desensitization and resensitization processes. During homologous desensitization, beta-arrestins bind to the GPRK-phosphorylated receptor and sterically preclude its coupling to the cognate G-protein. Beta-arrestin binding appears to require additional receptor determinants exposed only in the active receptor conformation. The beta-arrestins target many receptors for internalization by acting as endocytic adapters (CLASPs, clathrin-associated sorting proteins) and recruiting the GPRCs to the adaptor protein 2 complex 2 (AP-2) in clathrin-coated pits (CCPs). This antibody recognizes beta-arrestin-1 and beta-arrestin-2. The extent of beta-arrestin involvement appears to vary significantly depending on the receptor, agonist and cell type.

Format:
Each vial contains 0.1 ml peptide in deionized water for a final concentration of 1 mg/ml. Use at 5.6 ug/ml for a 100X excess over antibody for maximum blocking effect.

MW: 1620.9 g/mol

Sequence:
The synthetic peptide used to raise the antibody Cat. No. 251344 is selected from a sequence within the center region of human beta-arrestin 1/2. For blocking experiments, a 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended.

Composition:
C70H125N25O19

Purity:
> 80% by HPLC

Solubility:
Distilled water for a solution up to 2 mg/ml, otherwise we recommend using acetonitrile.

Storage:
Store at -20°C. The product is hygroscopic and must be protected from light. Product is guaranteed one year from the date of shipment. Following reconstitution, store at -20°C.
