VASP antibody (pSer239) (Biotin)

Catalog No. ABIN126909

Product Details anti-VASP Antibody (Biotin)

Target: VASP (Vasodilator-Stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP))

Binding Specificity: pSer239

Reactivity: Human, Mouse

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This VASP antibody is conjugated to Biotin

Application: Western Blotting (WB), Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunoprecipitation (IP), Flow Cytometry (FACS), Enzyme Immunoassay (EIA)

Specificity: This antibody recognizes VASP only, when Ser 239 is phosphorylated, a site preferred by cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG) but also used by cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA). The antibody does not crossreact with the non-phosphorylated form of VASP nor with unrelated serine-phosphorylated proteins. Therefore, antibody VASP-16C2 is able to monitor the phosphorylation state of VASP serine 239 as well as PKA activity.

Characteristics: Synonyms: Vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein

Purification: Size exclusion chromatography

Target: VASP (Vasodilator-Stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP))

Alternative Name: VASP (VASP Products)

Background: VASP (vasodilator stimulated phosphoprotein) plays an important role in ANF / NO / cGMP Protein kinase and cAMP / cAMP Protein kinase signalling pathways. VASP is expressed in almost all human and animal cell lines, particularly high concentrations are found in thrombocytes, vascular smooth muscle cells and fibroblasts. In cultured cells VASP is associated with focal contacts, cell-cell-contacts, microfilaments and dynamic membrane regions such as the leading edge. In vitro binding data show that VASP binds to profilin, zyxin, vinculin, and the Listeria spp. surface protein ActA. Functional evidence indicates that VASP is a crucial factor involved in the enhancement of actin filament formation.Synonyms: Vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein
