Anti-DAP Kinase 1 antibody produced in rabbit

General description

DAP-kinase 1 is a Ca²⁺/calmodulin dependent Ser/Thr kinase that associates with microfilaments. The protein is composed of a multidomain structure. It has a subdomain typical of serine/threonine kinases, a Ca²⁺/calmodulin regulatory domain, eight ankyrin repeats followed by two P-loop motifs and a typical death domain module. It contains two auto-inhibitory domains, one being Ca²⁺/calmodulin dependent.

Specificity

Anti-DAPK1 antibody is specific for human DAPK1 (approx. 160 kDa). In immunoblotting, detection of the DAPK1 band is specifically inhibited with the immunizing peptide.

Immunogen

synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids 2-13 of human DAP-kinase 1, conjugated to KLH via a C-terminal cysteine residue. The corresponding sequence is identical in rat and mouse.

Application

Anti-DAP Kinase 1 antibody is suitable for use in immunoprecipitation (2.5-5.0 μg using extracts of human HeLa cells) and western blot (1-2 μg/mL using whole extracts of human HeLa cells).

Anti-DAP Kinase 1 antibody produced in rabbit has been used in immunoprecipitation and western blotting.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Death-associated protein kinase (DAPK) belongs to the serine/threonine kinase family that regulates apoptosis, growth factor signaling and also may be involved in modulating immune responses. DAPK1 mediates cellular functions such as membrane blebbing and autophagy and inhibits the activity of prolyl isomerase

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.
