bs-70210R

DATASHEET

Host: Rabbit

Target Protein: p62 (Ser28)

Specificity: Specific for endogenous levels of the ~48 kDa p62 protein phosphorylated at Ser28. Immunolabeling is blocked by preadsorption with the phosphopeptide used as antigen, but not by the corresponding non-phosphopeptide.

Modification Site: Ser28

Clonality: Polyclonal

Isotype: IgG

Entrez Gene: 8878

Swiss Prot: Q13501

Source: Synthetic phospho-peptide corresponding to amino acid residues surrounding Ser28 of human p62, conjugated to keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH).

Purification: Antigen Affinity purification from Pooled whole antiserum

Storage Buffer: 10 mM HEPES (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 100 µg per ml BSA and 50% glycerol.

Storage: Storage at -20°C is recommended, as aliquots may be taken without freeze/thawing due to presence of 50% glycerol. Stable for at least 1 year at -20°C.

Background:

p62, also known as sequestosome1 (SQSTM1), is a shuttle protein transporting polyubiquitinated proteins for both proteasomal and lysosomal degradation. p62 is an integral component of inclusions in brains of various neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer disease (AD) neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) and Lewy bodies in Parkinson disease (Nogalaska et al., 2009). p62 plays an important role in the protection of cells from the toxicity of misfolded proteins by enhancing aggregate formation especially in the later stages (Nakaso et al., 2004). Phosphorylation of Ser-28 has recently been demonstrated to be related to the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease.
