CST, 56820SF, CREB (48H2) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free)

Monoclonal Antibody for studying CREB. Validated for WB,IHC,IF,IF,F,ELISA+. Highly specific and rigorously validated in-house, CREB (48H2) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free) (CST #56820) is ready to ship. Product Usage Information This product is the carrier-free version of product #9197. All data were generated using the same antibody clone in the standard formulation which contains BSA and glycerol. This formulation is ideal for use with technologies requiring specialized or custom antibody labeling, including fluorophores, metals, lanthanides, and oligonucleotides. It is not recommended for ChIP, ChIP-seq, CUT&RUN, or CUT&Tag assays. If you require a carrier-free formulation for chromatin profiling, please contact us . Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user. BSA and Azide Free antibodies are quality control tested by size exclusion chromatography (SEC) to determine antibody integrity. Formulation Supplied in 1X PBS (10 mM Na 2 HPO 4 , 3 mM KCl, 2 mM KH 2 PO 4 , and 140 mM NaCl (pH 7.8)). BSA and Azide Free. For standard formulation of this product see product # 9197 . Storage Store at -20°C. This product will freeze at -20°C so it is recommended to aliquot into single-use vials to avoid multiple freeze/thaw cycles. A slight precipitate may be present and can be dissolved by gently vortexing. This will not interfere with antibody performance. Specificity / Sensitivity CREB (48H2) Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free) detects endogenous levels of total CREB-1 protein. This antibody does not cross-react with other ATF/CREB family members. Non-specific staining of components along the retinotectal pathway was observed by immunofluorescence in fixed frozen mouse tissue. Non-specific signal is observed in formaldehyde fixed frozen mouse retina by immunofluorescence. Species Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat, Monkey, D. melanogaster Source / Purification Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with recombinant protein specific to the amino terminus of human CREB-1 protein. The epitope has been mapped to residues surrounding Glu21. Background CREB is a bZIP transcription factor that activates target genes through cAMP response elements. CREB is able to mediate signals from numerous physiological stimuli, resulting in regulation of a broad array of cellular responses. While CREB is expressed in numerous tissues, it plays a large regulatory role in the nervous system. CREB is believed to play a key role in promoting neuronal survival, precursor proliferation, neurite outgrowth, and neuronal differentiation in certain neuronal populations (1-3). Additionally, CREB signaling is involved in learning and memory in several organisms (4-6). CREB is able to selectively activate numerous downstream genes through interactions with different dimerization partners. CREB is activated by phosphorylation at Ser133 by various signaling pathways, including Erk, Ca , and stress signaling. Some of the kinases involved in phosphorylating CREB at Ser133 are p90RSK, MSK, CaMKIV, and MAPKAPK-2 (7-9).
