Storage buffer Preservative: 0.09% Sodium Azide Constituents: 0.1% BSA, Tris buffered saline Purity Immunogen affinity purified Purification notes ab76943 was affinity purified using an epitope specific to Slingshot homolog 1 immobilized on solid support. Clonality Polyclonal Isotype IgG Applications Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab76943 in the following tested applications. The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user. Application WB Abreviews Notes 1/2000 - 1/10000. Detects a band of approximately 150 kDa (predicted molecular weight: 116 kDa). IP Use at 2-5 - 5 µg/mg of lysate. ICC/IF Use a concentration of 1 µg/ml. 1 Target Function Protein phosphatase which regulates actin filament dynamics. Dephosphorylates and activates the actin binding/depolymerizing factor cofilin, which subsequently binds to actin filaments and stimulates their disassembly. Inhibitory phosphorylation of cofilin is mediated by LIMK1, which may also be dephosphorylated and inactivated by this protein. Sequence similarities Belongs to the protein-tyrosine phosphatase family. Contains 1 tyrosine-protein phosphatase domain. Post-translational modifications Phosphorylated. Inhibitory phosphorylation by PAK4 promotes binding to YWHAZ. Phosphorylation at Ser-978 is decreased by stimuli which promote actin reorganization and lamellipodia formation. Can be dephosphorylated and activated by PPP3CA/calcineurin A. Phosphorylation decreases immediately prior to telophase. Cellular localization Cytoplasm > cytoskeleton. Cell projection > lamellipodium. Cleavage furrow. Midbody. Also recruited to actin rich membrane protrusions such as lamellipodia, which may allow local control of actin dynamics at sites of cell locomotion. Also localized to the cleavage furrow and the midbody during cytokinesis.

Immunoprecipitation - Slingshot homolog 1 antibody (ab76943) 2 ICC/IF image of ab76943 stained HeLa cells. The cells were 4% formaldehyde fixed (10 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab76943, 1µg/ml) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor® Immunocytochemistry/ Immunofluorescence- 594 WGA was used to label plasma Slingshot homolog 1 antibody(ab76943) membranes (red) at a 1/200 dilution for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM.
