S6 Kinase 1 (Thr449) Antibody

Ribosomal s6 kinase is a member of a family of protein kinases involved in signal transduction. The subfamily S6K has two known homologues: S6K1 and S6K2. First characterized in mammals, S6K1 is controlled by target-of-rapamycin (TOR) kinase, which plays a central regulatory role in growth signaling pathways (Dufner and Thomas 1999) . Osmotic stress inhibition of S6K is mediated by the TOR kinase pathway (Mahfouz et al., 2006) . The activation of mammalian S6K1 involves phosphorylation at Thr-389 (Pearson et al., 2005), however its orthologue in Arabidopsis suggests that plant S6K1 Thr-449 is its functional equivalent (Schepetilnikov et al., 2011) . The phytohormone auxin triggers TOR activation, which is followed by S6K1 phosphorylation at Thr-449, which in turn is critical for translation reinitiation (Schepetilnikov et al., 2013) . Rapamycin effectively inactivates S6K1 Thr-449 phosphorylation in Arabidopsis seedlings, which suppresses TOR PK activity and ultimately plant growth (Xiong Y and Sheen J, 2011) .

Specific for endogenous levels of the ~53 kDa S6K1 protein phosphorylated at Thr449. Immunolabeling is blocked by preadsorption with the phosphopeptide used as antigen, but not by the corresponding non-phosphopeptide.
