Phospho-c-Abl (Tyr412) (247C7) Rabbit mAb #2865

Applications Reactivity Sensitivity MW (kDa) Isotype
W H Endogenous 135 (c-Abl); 210 (Bcr-Abl) Rabbit IgG

Applications Key:  W=Western Blotting
Reactivity Key:  H=Human
Species cross-reactivity is determined by Western blot.

Protocols

Specificity / Sensitivity

Phospho-c-Abl (Tyr412) (247C7) Rabbit mAb detects endogenous Abl proteins only when phosphorylated at tyrosine 412. The antibody does not cross-react with other phosphorylated tyrosine kinases.

Source / Purification

Monoclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing rabbits with a synthetic phospho-peptide (KLH-coupled) corresponding to residues surrounding Tyr412 of human c-Abl.

Western Blotting

Western Blotting

Western blot analysis of extracts from cells expressing various activated tyrosine kinase proteins, using Phospho-c-Abl (Tyr412) (247C7 ) Rabbit mAb (upper) or Phospho-Tyrosine mAb (P-Tyr-100) #9411 (lower). Phospho-c-Abl (Tyr412) (247C7 ) Rabbit mAb specifically recognizes the activated Abl of Bcr-Abl fusion proteins, whose phosphorylation was abolished by calf intestinal phosphatase (CIP) treatment.

Western Blotting

Western Blotting

Western blot analysis of extracts from K562 cells, untreated or treated with an Abl inhibitor, using Phospho-c-Abl (Tyr412) (247C7) Rabbit mAb.

Background

The c-Abl proto-oncogene encodes a nonreceptor protein tyrosine kinase that is ubiquitously expressed and highly conserved in metazoan evolution. c-Abl protein is distributed in both the nucleus and the cytoplasm of cells. It is implicated in regulating cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, cell adhesion and stress responses (1-3). c-Abl kinase activity is increased in vivo by diverse physiological stimuli including integrin activation, PDGF stimulation and binding to c-Jun, Nck and RFX1 (2,4). The in vivo mechanism of regulation of c-Abl kinase activity is not completely understood. Tyr245 is located in the linker region between the SH2 and catalytic domains. This positioning is conserved among Abl family members. Phosphorylation of Tyr245 is involved in the activation of c-Abl kinase (5). In addition, phosphorylation of Tyr412, which is located in the kinase activation loop of c-Abl, is required for kinase activity (6).
