Isotype
IgG
Specificity
This item recognises Raf-1 phosphorylated at serine 642, a ubiquitously expressed 74 kDa member of the serine/threonine protein kinase family. Raf-1 is a MAP kinase kinase kinase and participates in the transduction of mitogenic signals from receptors on the cell membrane to the nucleus. Raf-1 is activated through phosphorylation by Ras and in turn phosphorylates MEK which activates ERK. ERK when activated regulates the expression of genes involved in cell cycle, differentiation, migration and apoptosis. As such Raf-1 is an important clinical target in cancer.

Raf-1 activity can be downregulated by phosphorylation at serine residues 301 and 642.
Form/Format
Purified
Purified IgG - liquid
Sequence Length
648
Applicable Applications for anti-RAF-1 antibody
Western Blot (WB)*
Application Notes
Western Blot: This item detects a band of approximately 74kDa.
Western Blotting: Maximum Dilution: 1/1000; Application Note: For the detection of phosphoproteins, tyrosine phosphatase inhibitors such as 1mM Sodium Orthovanadate should be added to the sample buffer. Milk or other casein-based blocking solutions are not recommended as casein is a phosphoprotein and its use can result in high background.
Perservative Stabilisers
0.09% Sodium Azide (NaN3)
0.01% Bovine Serum Albumin
50% Glycerol
Immunogen
Phosphopeptide corresponding to animo acid sequence surrounding phosphorylated Ser 642 of rat Raf-1.
Buffer Solution
Antiserum Preparation
Antisera to rat Raf-1 (pSer 642) were raised by repeated immunisations of rabbits with highly purified antigen. Purified IgG prepared affinity chromatography.
Target Species
Rat
Preparation and Storage
Store at 4 degree C or at -20 degree C if preferred. Storage in frost-free freezers is not recommended. This product should be stored undiluted. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing as this may denature the antibody. Should this product contain a precipitate we recommend microcentrifugation before use.
Shelf Life: 12 months from date of despatch.

NCBI Description

acts as a mitogenic protein kinase; mutant forms may play a role in transformation [RGD, Feb 2006]

Uniprot Description

RAF1: a proto-oncogenic TKL kinase of the RAF family. Functions downstream of the Ras family of membrane associated GTPases to which it binds directly. Once activated Raf-1 can phosphorylate and activate MEK1/2, which in turn phosphorylate and activate ERK1/2. Acts as a regulatory link between the membrane-associated Ras GTPases and the MAPK/ERK cascade, and this critical regulatory link functions as a switch determining cell fate decisions including proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, survival and oncogenic transformation. RAF1 activation initiates a mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade that comprises a sequential phosphorylation of the dual-specific MAPK kinases (MEK1/2) and the extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK1/2). RAF1, subsequent to phosphorylation by PAK1, phosphorylates BAD (Bcl2-antagonist of cell death) at S75. Phosphorylates adenylyl cyclases ADCY2, ADCY5 and ADCY6, resulting in their activation. Phosphorylates PPP1R12A resulting in inhibition of the phosphatase activity. Phosphorylates TNNT2 (cardiac muscle troponin T). Can promote NF-kB activation and inhibit signal transducers involved in motility (ROCK2), apoptosis (ASK1 and MST2), proliferation and angiogenesis (RB1). Can protect cells from apoptosis also by translocating to the mitochondria where it binds BCL2 and displaces BAD. Restricts caspase activation in response to selected stimuli, notably Fas stimulation, pathogen-mediated macrophage apoptosis, and erythroid differentiation.

Product Notes

The RAF-1 raf1 (Catalog #AAA221524) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The RABBIT ANTI RAF-1 (pSer642) reacts with Bovine (Expected from Sequence), Chicken (Expected from Sequence), Dog (Expected from Sequence), Human (Expected from Sequence), Mouse (Expected from Sequence), Primate (Expected from Sequence) and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's RAF-1 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB)*. Western Blot: This item detects a band of approximately 74kDa. Western Blotting: Maximum Dilution: 1/1000; Application Note: For the detection of phosphoproteins, tyrosine phosphatase inhibitors such as 1mM Sodium Orthovanadate should be added to the sample buffer. Milk or other casein-based blocking solutions are not recommended as casein is a phosphoprotein and its use can result in high background. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the RAF-1 raf1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "RAF-1, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
