This antibody detects endogenous levels of total MARCKS protein.
Purification
Immunoaffinity Chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen.
Immunogen
The antiserum was produced against synthesized non-phosphopeptide derived from human MARCKS around the phosphorylation site of serine 158 (R-F-Sp-F-K).
Western blot: 1/500approx. 1/1000. Immunofluorescence: 1/100approx. 1/200. Other applications not tested. Optimal dilutions are dependent on conditions and should be determined by the user.

Target
MARCKS
(Myristoylated Alanine-Rich Protein Kinase C Substrate (MARCKS))
MARCKS, (Myristoylated Alanine-Rich C Kinase Substrate), is a member of a family of calmodulin binding proteins and is a major substrate for phosphorylation by protein kinase C (PKC). The phosphorylation of Ser152/156 can be used as a measure of PKC activation. Phosphorylation of Ser152/156 modulates the binding of MARCKS to calmodulin.Synonyms: MACS, Myristoylated alanine-rich C-kinase substrate, PRKCSL
