Highly specific and rigorously validated in-house, Phospho-PKD/PKC mu (Ser744/748) Antibody (CST #2054) is ready to ship. Product Usage Information Western Blotting: 1:1000 Simple Western™: 1:50 - 1:250 Storage Supplied in 10 mM sodium HEPES (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 100 µg/ml BSA and 50% glycerol. Store at -20°C. Do not aliquot the antibody. Protocol Available protocols: Western Blotting Specificity / Sensitivity Phospho-PKD/PKC mu (Ser744/748) Antibody detects PKD1/PKCμ only when dually phosphorylated at serines 744 and 748. This antibody may also cross-react with isoforms PKD2 and PKD3/PKCη in some species. Species Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat, Monkey Source / Purification Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic phosphopeptide corresponding to residues surrounding Ser744/748 of mouse PKD. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography. Background Activation of PKC is one of the earliest events in a cascade leading to a variety of cellular responses, such as secretion, gene expression, proliferation, and muscle contraction (1,2). Protein kinase D (PKD), also called PKCμ, is a serine/threonine kinase whose activation is dependent on the phosphorylation of two activation loop sites, Ser744 and Ser748, via a PKC-dependent signaling pathway (3-5). In addition to the two activation loop sites, the carboxy-terminal Ser916 has been identified as an autophosphorylation site for PKD/PKCμ. Phosphorylation at Ser916 correlates with PKD/PKCμ catalytic activity (6).
