Product datasheet Anti-PAG3 (phospho Y724) antibody ab18031 1 Image Overview Product name Anti-PAG3 (phospho Y724) antibody Description Rabbit polyclonal to PAG3 (phospho Y724) Specificity Lysates prepared from COS cells overexpressing human wild-type PAG3 and cotransfected with mouse Pyk2 were immunoblotted in the presence of non-phosphopeptide corresponding to the immunogen, a generic phosphotyrosine-containing peptide or the phosphopeptide immunogen. The data show that only the peptide corresponding to phospho Y724 PAG3 blocks the signal, and the signal is absent when mutant PAG3 extracts are used, demonstrating the specificity of the antibody. Tested applications WB Species reactivity Reacts with human PAG3 Predicted to react with mouse PAG3 due to 92% sequence homology Immunogen Synthetic phosphopeptide derived from the region of human PAG3 that contains tyrosine 724. Positive control COS cells overexpressing human wild type PAG3, cotransfected with mouse Pyk2. Properties Form Liquid Storage instructions Shipped at 4°C. Store at +4°C short term (1-2 weeks). Upon delivery aliquot. Store at -20°C or 80°C. Avoid freeze / thaw cycle. Storage buffer Preservative: 0.05% Sodium Azide Constituents: 50% Glycerol, PBS (without Mg2+ and Ca2+), 1mg/ml BSA. pH 7.3. Purity Immunogen affinity purified Purification notes This antibody was purified from rabbit serum by sequential epitope specific chromatography. The antibody has been negatively preadsorbed using a non phosphopeptide corresponding to the site of phosphorylation to remove antibody that is reactive with non phosphorylated PAG3 protein. The final product is generated by affinity chromatography using a PAG3 derived peptide that is phosphorylated at tyrosine 724. Clonality Polyclonal Isotype IgG Applications Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab18031 in the following tested applications. 1 The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user. Application Abreviews WB Notes 1/1000. Detects a band of approximately 160 kDa (predicted molecular weight: 112 kDa). Target Function Activates the small GTPases ARF1, ARF5 and ARF6. Regulates the formation of post-Golgi vesicles and modulates constitutive secretion. Modulates phagocytosis mediated by Fc gamma receptor and ARF6. Modulates PXN recruitment to focal contacts and cell migration. Tissue specificity Detected in heart, brain, placenta, kidney, monocytes and pancreas. Sequence similarities Contains 2 ANK repeats. Contains 1 Arf-GAP domain. Contains 1 PH domain. Contains 1 SH3 domain. Domain The conserved Arg-464 in the Arf-GAP domain probably becomes part of the active site of bound small GTPases and is necessary for GTP hydrolysis. Post-translational modifications Phosphorylated on tyrosine residues by SRC and PTK2B. Cellular localization Cytoplasm. Golgi apparatus > Golgi stack membrane. Cell membrane. Colocalizes with F-actin and ARF6 in phagocytic cups. Anti-PAG3 (phospho Y724) antibody images 2 Predicted band size : 112 kDa Western blot using Ab18031 on COS cell lysate overexpressing human PAG3. Western blot - PAG3 (phospho Y724) antibody (ab18031) Lane 1: wild-type PAG3 alone Lane 2: wild-type PAG3 cotransfected with mouse PyK2 Lane 3: wild-type PAG3 cotransfected with mouse PyK2. Antibody blocked with the non phosphopeptde corresponding to the immunogen Lane 4: wild-type PAG3 cotransfected with mouse PyK2. Antibody blocked with the generic phosphotyrosine corresponding to the immunogen Lane 5: wild-type PAG3 cotransfected with mouse PyK2. Antibody blocked with the generic phosphopeptide immunogen Lane 6: mutant [Y724/Y763] PAG3 cotransfected with Pyk2 10-30 micrograms of cell lysate can be loaded when using similar lysates with this antibody. Samples were run using SDSPAGE on a 8% polyacrylamide gel and transferred to PVDF. Membranes were blocked with a 5% BSA-TBST buffer for one hour at room temperature, then incubated with PAG3 antibody Ab18031 for two hours at room temperature in a 3% BSA-TBST buffer, following prior incubation with blocking peptides. After washing, membranes were incubated with goat F(ab’)2 anti-rabbit IgG HRP conjugate in 3% BSA-TBST buffer, and bands were detected using the Pierce SuperSignal method. Only the phospho peptide immunogen blocks the antibody, confirming its specificity for the phospho epitope tyrosine 724.
