Validated for ELISA+. Highly specific and rigorously validated in-house, Phospho-YB1 (Ser102) (A8U1E) Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free) (CST #98937) is ready to ship.\n\n\u003cb\u003eProduct Usage Information\u003c\/b\u003e\nThis 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\u0026amp;RUN or CUT\u0026amp;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.\n\u003cb\u003eFormulation\u003c\/b\u003e\nSupplied 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.\n\u003cb\u003eStorage\u003c\/b\u003e\nStore 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.\n\u003cb\u003eSpecificity \/ Sensitivity\u003c\/b\u003e\nPhospho-YB1 (Ser102) (A8U1E) Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (BSA and Azide Free) detects endogenous levels of YB1 protein only when phosphorylated on Ser102.\nSpecies Reactivity: Human\n\u003cb\u003eSource \/ Purification\u003c\/b\u003e\nMonoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic phosphopeptide corresponding to residues surrounding Ser102 of the human YB1 protein.\n\u003cb\u003eBackground\u003c\/b\u003e\nThe Y-box binding protein 1 (YB1) belongs to a family of evolutionarily conserved, multifunctional Y-box proteins that bind single-stranded DNA and RNA and function as regulators of transcription, RNA metabolism, and protein synthesis (1). YB1 binds to Y-box sequences (TAACC) found in multiple gene promoters and can positively or negatively regulate transcription. YB1 activates genes associated with proliferation and cancer, such as cyclin A, cyclin B1, matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2), and the multi-drug resistance 1 (MDR1) gene (2-4). YB1 represses genes associated with cell death, including the Fas cell death-associated receptor and the p53 tumor suppressor gene (5-7). It also interacts with the RNA-splicing factor SRp30c and stabilizes interleukin-2 (IL-2) mRNA upon induction of T lymphocytes by IL-2 (8,9). The majority of YB1 protein localizes to the cytoplasm, with a minor pool found in the nucleus; however, nuclear localization appears to be critical for its role in promoting proliferation. Nuclear translocation is cell cycle regulated, with YB1 protein accumulating in the nucleus during G1\/S phase (2). In addition, nuclear translocation is induced in response to extracellular stimuli such as hyperthermia and UV irradiation, or treatment of cells with thrombin, interferons, or insulin-like growth factor (IGF-I) (2,10). Treatment of the MCF7 breast cancer cell line with IGF-I results in Akt-mediated phosphorylation of YB1 at Ser102, which is required for nuclear translocation of YB1 and its ability to promote anchorage-independent growth (10). Research studies have shown that YB1 is overexpressed in many malignant tissues, including breast cancer, non-small cell lung carcinoma, ovarian adenocarcinomas, human osteosarcomas, colorectal carcinomas, and malignant melanomas. Investigators have shown that nuclear YB1 expression correlates with high levels of proliferation, drug resistance, and poor tumor prognosis (2,7,10).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nBP-8; CBF-A; CCAAT-binding transcription factor I subunit A; CSDA2; CSDB; DBPB; DNA-binding protein B; EFI-A; Enhancer factor I subunit A; major histocompatibility complex, class II, Y box-binding protein I; MDR-NF1; MGC104858; MGC110976; MGC117250; NSEP-1; NSEP1; nuclease sensitive element binding protein 1; Nuclease-sensitive element-binding protein 1; Y box binding protein 1; Y-box binding protein 1; Y-box transcription factor; Y-box-binding protein 1; YB-1; YB1; YBOX1; YBX1\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nSource\/Isotype: Mouse IgG2a","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46800327573673,"sku":"98937SF","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-98937sf","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
