Product Name :
Cortactin polyclonal antibody Background :
Cortactin (also designated Ems-1) is a filamentous Actin (F-Actin) binding protein that has been shown to be a substrate for Src p60. Cortactin contains tandem 37 amino acid repeats at the amino-terminus and an SH3 domain at the carboxy-terminus. The tandem repeats appear to be necessary for F-Actin binding. Tyrosine phosphorylation of Cortactin by Src p60 results in diminished F-Actin binding to Cortactin and reduced F-Actin cross-linking activity. Cortactin has also been shown to be phosphorylated in response to FGF-1. Cortactin exhibits abundant expression in megakaryocytes and platelets, and it may play a role in the maturation of megakaryocytes. Product :

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.
