Protocols

Specificity / Sensitivity

Phospho-Stat5 (Tyr694) Antibody detects endogenous levels of Stat5alpha and Stat5beta only when phosphorylated at Tyr694. The antibody does not cross-react with the corresponding phospho-tyrosine residues of other Stat proteins, but does cross-react with EGFR.

Source / Purification

Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing rabbits with a synthetic phospho-peptide (KLH-coupled) corresponding to residues surrounding Tyr694 of mouse Stat5. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.

Western Blotting

Western Blotting

Western blot analysis of extracts from TF-1 cells, treated with GM-CSF (25 ng/ml) for the indicated times, using Phospho-Stat5 (Tyr694) Antibody (upper) or Stat5 antibody (lower).

Flow Cytometry

Flow Cytometry

Flow cytometric analysis of K562 cells, untreated (green) or STI571-treated (blue), using Phospho-Stat5 (Tyr694) Antibody.

Background

Stat5 is activated in response to a wide variety of ligands including IL-2, GM-CSF, growth hormone and prolactin. Phosphorylation at Tyr694 is obligatory for Stat5 activation (1,2). This phosphorylation is mediated by Src upon erythropoietin stimulation (3). Stat5 has been found to be constitutively active in some leukemic cell types (4). Phosphorylated Stat5 is found in some endothelial cells treated with IL-3, which suggests its involvement in angiogenesis and cell motility (5). Stat5α and β are independently regulated and activated in various cell types. For instance, both isoforms are activated in response to IFN-α in B cells, but only Stat5α is phosphorylated in response to IFN-α in HeLa cells (6).
