SHIPPING NOTES
Storing antibodies at various temperatures (up to 40°C) for one week does not affect their activity. As a precautionary measure, we ship all products in insulated packaging with cold packs to provide extra temperature stability in transit. The cold packs may be thawed when you receive the shipment, please be assured that this is normal and your product(s) are safe to use. Once you have received your product(s), please follow the storage instructions on the datasheet(s).
*USAGE / SAFETY STATEMENT
This product is for research use only. It is not intended for diagnostic or therapeutic use.
CONJUGATION/TAG
Unconjugated
PURIFICATION
Antibodies were produced by immunizing rabbits with synthetic phosphopeptide and KLH conjugates. Antibodies were purified by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific phosphopeptide. Non-phospho specific antibodies were removed by chromatogramphy using non-phosphopeptide.
DILUTION
Western blotting: 1:500~1:1000
IMMUNOGEN
Peptide sequence around phosphorylation site of Serine 159(K-S-S(p)-A-P) derived from Human GRB2.
SPECIFICITY
The antibody detects endogenous levels of GRB2 only when phosphorylated at serine 159.
STORAGE BUFFER
Rabbit IgG in phosphate buffered saline (without Mg2+ and Ca2+), pH 7.4, 150mM NaCl, 0.02% sodium azide and 50% glycerol.
BACKGROUND
This gene is a member of the GRB2-associated binding protein (GAB) gene family and is similar to the GAB1 gene. These proteins contain pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, and bind SHP2 tyrosine phosphatase and GRB2 adapter protein. They act as adapters for transmitting various signals in response to stimuli through cytokine and growth factor receptors, and T- and B-cell antigen receptors. The protein encoded by this gene is the principal activator of phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase in response to activation of the high affinity IgE receptor. Two alternatively spliced transcripts encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene.
