PP2C-alpha monoclonal antibody Background :
The α isoform of protein phosphatase 2C (PP2C-α) is the catalytic subunit of a widely expressed serine/threonine phosphatase involved in regulation of the cell stress response. Also known as magnesium-dependent protein phosphatase (PPM1A), this monomeric phosphatase is a member of a conserved group of proteins that acts on many different substrates in numerous pathways. PP2C-α inhibits p38 MAPK and SAPK/JNK pathways activated in response to cell stress as seen in both in vivo and in vitro studies. Specifically, PP2C-α removes phosphates from MKK3 and MKK7, reducing activity of both proteins and inhibiting activation of the downstream kinases JNK and p38 MAPK, respectively. Another PP2C-α substrate is IKKβ, the critical regulator of NF-κB signaling. Dephosphorylation of IKKβ at Ser177/181 by PPM1A and PPM1B results in inactivation of IKKβ and inhibition of NF-κB signaling. PP2C-α is one of the phosphatases responsible for removing phosphate residues from cyclin dependent protein kinases. In a study using HeLa cell extracts, PP2C-α dephospohrylates CDK2 and CDK6, with a preference toward interacting with CDK2 phosphorylated at Thr160, a residue found in the activating T-loop of the kinase. Removal of phosphates from this site is thought to inactivate cyclin-associated kinases. PP2C-α induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis, likely through activation of p53 though other pathways may also contribute to PP2C-α mediated cell death . Additional PP2C-α substrates include the Wnt signaling pathway protein axin and CFTR, a chloride channel protein implicated in cystic fibrosis. Product :

Bioworld Biotech only provide peptides for our antibodies and do not provide additional peptide customization services.
Price/Size :
USD 368/1mg/vial
Tips:
For phospho antibody, we provide phospho peptide（0.5mg) and non-phospho peptide(0.5mg).Describe :
Blocking peptides are peptides that bind specifically to the target antibody and block antibody binding. These peptide usually contains the epitope recognized by the antibody. Antibodies bound to the blocking peptide no longer bind to the epitope on the target protein. This mechanism is useful when non-specific binding is an issue, for example, in Western blotting (WB) and Immunohistochemistry (IHC). By comparing the staining from the blocked antibody versus the antibody alone, one can see which staining is specific; Specific binding will be absent from the western blot or IHC performed with the neutralized antibody.Formula:
Synthetic peptide was lyophilized with 100% acetonitrile and is supplied as a powder. Reconstitute with 0.1 ml DI water for a final concentration of 10 mg/ml.The purity is >90%,tested by HPLC and MS.
Storage:
The freeze-dried powder is more stable. For short time at 2-8°C. For long term storage store at -20°C.
