Parkin (Phospho Ser131) polyclonal antibody, anti-human, mouse, rat

Background:
The precise function of this gene is unknown; however, the encoded protein is a component of a multiprotein E3 ubiquitin ligase complex that mediates the targeting of substrate proteins for proteasomal degradation. Mutations in this gene are known to cause Parkinson disease and autosomal recessive juvenile Parkinson disease. Alternative splicing of this gene produces multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms. Additional splice variants of this gene have been described but currently lack transcript support.

Research Area: Cell biology, Metabolism, Neuroscience

Synonyms: E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase parkin, PARK2, PRKN, E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase parkin, Parkinson juvenile disease protein 2, Parkinson disease protein 2

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
