Polyclonal Antibody for studying COPS6. Validated for Western Blotting. Highly specific and rigorously validated in-house, COPS6 Antibody (CST #69477) is ready to ship. Product Usage Information Western Blotting: 1:1000 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 COPS6 Antibody recognizes endogenous levels of total COPS6 protein. This antibody also cross-reacts with an unidentifed protein of 78 kDa protein in some cell extracts. Species Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat Source / Purification Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues near the carboxy terminus of human COPS6 protein. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography. Background COP9 signalosome complex subunit 6 (COPS6) belongs to the multisubunit COP9 signalsome which modulates protein ubiquitination to affect cellular processes such as cell-cycle progression and DNA damage repair (1). COPS6 is a putative oncogene that has been shown to be overexpressed in a significant percentage of colorectal cancers with poor prognosis (2). Mechanistically, research studies have shown that a signaling axis involving EGFR and ERK promotes tumor growth through the phosphorylation of COPS6, which indirectly facilitates downstream stabilization of β-catenin and enhancement of its transcriptional acitivity (2). Reasearch studies have also demonstrated that COPS6 contributes to tumorigenesis through the stabilization of other oncoproteins like c-Myc, MDM2 and E6AP (3-5).
