Product Specifications

Immunogen

PrPC (Ser-43) antibody was generated from a phospho-peptide that included amino acids surrounding Serine 43 in human prion protein. This sequence has high homology to the conserved site in rat, mouse, and bovine PrPC. [UniProt# P04156]

Modification

p Ser43

Specificity

The antibody detects a human recombinant PrPC after phosphorylation by Cdk5/p25 complex. In addition, the antibody may detect aggregrated forms of prion in human PC3 cells treated with Calyculin A.

Clonality

Polyclonal

Host

Rabbit

Isotype

IgG

Theoretical MW

27 kDa.
Disclaimer note: The observed molecular weight of the protein may vary from the listed predicted molecular weight due to post translational modifications, post translation cleavages, relative charges, and other experimental factors.

Description

Stable for at least 1 year at -20°C.

Western Blot: PrPC [p Ser43] Antibody [NBP3-23337] -

Western Blot: PrPC [p Ser43] Antibody [NBP3-23337] - Western blot of GST recombinant human full-length prion protein that was untreated (lanes 1 and 3) or phosphorylated with Cdk5/p25 (lanes 2 & 4). Endogenous prion phosphorylation was examined in human PC3 cells untreated (lanes 5 & 7) or treated with Calyculin A (100 nM) for 30 min (lanes 6 & 8). The blots were probed with anti-Prion protein (3F4) (lanes 1, 2, 5, & 6) or anti-Prion protein (Ser-43) (lanes 3, 4, 7, & 8).

Background: PrPC

Prion diseases are transmissible neurodegenerative disorders which affect a range of mammalian species. In humans they can be inherited and sporadic as well as acquired by exposure to human prions. Prions appear to be composed principally of a conformational isomer of host-encoded prion protein and propagate by recruitment of cellular prion protein (1). The function of the cellular prion protein (PrP) is still poorly understood. It has been proposed that one unprecedented role for PrP is against Bax-mediated neuronal apoptosis. It has been shown that PrP potently inhibits Bax-induced cell death in human primary neurons (2). An impaired synaptic inhibition may be involved in the epileptiform activity seen in Creutzfeldt-Jakob and other neurodegenerative diseases and it is believed that loss of function of PrP may contribute to the early synaptic loss and neuronal degeneration seen in these diseases (3).
