Product Description | Affinity purified rabbit anti-phospho-threonine antibodies are conjugated to d-biotin via N-acetylation. The conjugates are useful for detection, identification and quantization of threonine-phosphorylated proteins and peptides. | |
Species | Rabbit | |
Formulation | 250 µg/mL in PBS, 50% glycerol | |
Immunogen | Phospho-threonine-KLH conjugates and phosvitin | |
Purification | The antibody was purified on phospho-threonine agarose. | |
Conjugation | Acetylation of the primary amine with the active ester of biotin (NHS-activated d-biotin) | |
Specificity | The antibody is pan-specific against phospho-threonine. It cross reacts with phospho-serine slightly but does not cross-react with phospho-tyrosine. | |
Applications | ELISA (0.25 - 1.0 µg/mL); WB (0.25 - 1.0 µg/mL) | |
Scientific Description | Threonine is one of the 20 naturally occurring amino acids used for the biosynthesis of proteins. Kinases phosphorylate threonine to form phospho-threonine which is considered a key step in the regulation of enzymatic activities such as signal transduction. | |
Storage & Stability | Product is stable for several weeks at 4°C. For extended storage, store product at –20ºC. Expiration date is one year from date of shipping if properly stored. | |
