NIPP1 polyclonal antibody, anti-human, mouse, rat

Background:
PPP1R8 (protein phosphatase 1 regulatory subunit 8), through alternative splicing, encodes three different isoforms. Two of the protein isoforms encoded by PPP1R8 are specific inhibitors of type 1 serine/threonine protein phosphatases and can bind but not cleave RNA. The third protein isoform lacks the phosphatase inhibitory function but is a single-strand endoribonuclease comparable to RNase E of E. coli. This isoform requires magnesium for its function and cleaves specific sites in A+U-rich regions of RNA.

Research Area: Signal Transduction

Synonyms: PPP1R8, ARD1, NIPP1, Nuclear inhibitor of protein phosphatase 1, NIPP-1, Protein phosphatase 1 regulatory inhibitor subunit 8

Immunogen: The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human AMPK alpha around the phosphorylation site of Thr172. AA range:140-189

Purification: The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen.

Formulation: Liquid in PBS containing 50% glycerol, 0.5% BSA and 0.02% sodium azide.

Concentration: 1 mg/ml

Storage:
-20°C for 1 year
