TAO2 (Ser181) Antibody

Product Specifications

Background

In vitro, TAO (thousand and one amino acid) protein kinase 2 (TAO2) activates MAP/ERK kinases (MEKs) 3, 4, and 6 toward their substrates p38 MAP kinase JNK/SAPK (Chen et al., 1999; Chen and Cobb, 2001) . This and more recent work has led to the proposal that the TAO protein kinases play an essential role in signaling from physiological agonists to the stress-responsive p38 MAPKs (Chen et al., 2003) . Autophosphorylation of TAO may play a role in the mechanism of TAO activation. The MEK binding domain of TAO is autophosphorylated on both serine and threonine residues and Ser-181 is located within this domain.

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.

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 ~120 kDa TAO2 phosphorylated at Ser181. Immunolabeling is completely eliminated by treatment with λ-phosphatase.
