Beclin1 (Ser295) Antibody

Product Specifications

Background

Beclin-1 plays a key role in tumor suppression and autophagy. It has been suggested that autophagy proteins such as beclin-1 can inhibit tumorigenesis and that decreased expression of these proteins may contribute to the development of human malignancies (Liang et al., 1999) . Akt-mediated phosphorylation of beclin-1 at Ser-295 has been shown to decrease autophagy and promote oncogenesis (Wang et al., 2012) .

Source

Synthetic phospho-peptide corresponding to amino acid residues surrounding Ser295 of human beclin-1, conjugated to keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) .

Applications

Purification

Antigen Affinity purification from Pooled whole antiserum

Concentration

Lot Dependent

Dilution

WB (1:300-5000)

Buffer

10 mM HEPES (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 100 µg per ml BSA and 50% glycerol.

Modification

Phosphorylation

Storage Conditions

Storage at -20°C is recommended, as aliquots may be taken without freeze/thawing due to presence of 50% glycerol. Stable for at least 1 year at -20°C.

Specificity

Specific for endogenous levels of the ~60 kDa beclin1 protein phosphorylated at Ser295. Immunolabeling of the beclin-1 band is eliminated in the beclin-1 alanine substitution mutant.
