Analysis Note

ControlUntreated and anisomycin-treated NIH/3T3 cell lysate.

Application

Western Blot Analysis :
A previous lot of this antibody detected 10 ng of phosphorylated gst-Jun, but did not detect 10 ng of nonphosphorylated Jun, as reported by an independent laboratory.

Anti-phospho-c-Jun (Ser73) Antibody is a Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody for detection of phospho-c-Jun (Ser73) also known as Activator protein 1 & has been validated in ICC, IP & WB.

General description

c-Jun is a component of the transcription factor AP-1 that binds and activates transcription at TRE/AP-1 elements and appears to be a major downstream target of the SAPK/JNK signaling pathway. The transcriptional activity of c-Jun is regulated by phosphorylation at Ser63 and Ser73. Extracellular signals including growth factors, transforming oncoproteins and UV irradiation stimulate phosphorylation of c-Jun at Ser63/73 and activate c-Jun dependent transcription. Mutation of Ser63/73 renders c-Jun nonresponsive to mitogenic and stress induced r>signaling pathways. The MAP kinase homologue, SAPK/JNK, binds to the N-terminal region of c-Jun and phosphorylates c-Jun at Ser63/73. In addition, the activity of SAPK/JNK is stimulated by the same signals that activate c-Jun.

Other Notes

Concentration: Please refer to the Certificate of Analysis for the lot-specific concentration.

Physical form

Purified rabbit polyclonal in buffer containing 0.1 M Tris-Glycine (pH7.4), 150 mM NaCl with 0.05% sodium azide.

Quality

Evaluated by Western Blotting in Anisomycin treated NIH/3T3 cell lysate.

Western Blotting Analysis: A 1:1,000 dilution of this antibody detected Phospho-C-Jun (Ser73) in 10 µg of Anisomycin treated NIH/3T3 cell lysate.

Specificity

This antibody detects phospho-c-Jun. May also detect phospho-JunD in properly treated cells since the sequence homology is identical (13/13).
