Protocols

Specificity / Sensitivity

Phospho-PRK1 (Thr774)/ PRK2 (Thr816) Antibody detects endogenous levels of PRK1 and PRK2 only when phosphorylated at Thr774 or Thr816, respectively. This antibody also detects PKC zeta and lambda when phosphorylated at Thr 410 and 403, respectively.

Source / Purification

Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing rabbits with a synthetic phospho-peptide (KLH-coupled) corresponding to residues surrounding Thr774 of human PRK1. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.

Western Blotting

Western Blotting

Western blot analysis of extracts from Jurkat cells, untreated or calf intestinal alkaline phosphotase (CIP)-treated, and 293 cells, untreated or calyculin A-treated, using Phospho-PRK1 (Thr774)/PRK2 (Thr816) Antibody (upper) or PRK1/PRK2 antibody (lower).

Background

The protein kinase C-related kinases (PRKs) are a subfamily of Ser/Thr-specific kinases with a catalytic domain highly homologous to the PKC family (1-3). They are effectors of Rho family GTPases (4-6) and are activated by fatty acids and phospholipids in vitro (7,8). Activation in vitro and in vivo involves the activation loop phosphorylation of PRK1 (Thr774)/PRK2 (Thr816) by PDK1 (9,10).
