Uniprot Description
Serine/threonine protein kinase which activates checkpoint signaling upon genotoxic stresses such as ionizing radiation (IR), ultraviolet light (UV), or DNA replication stalling, thereby acting as a DNA damage sensor. Recognizes the substrate consensus sequence [ST]-Q. Phosphorylates various proteins, which collectively inhibits DNA replication and mitosis and promotes DNA repair and recombination. Phosphorylates grp/CHK1. Phosphorylates 'Ser-137' of histone variant H2AX/H2AV at sites of DNA damage, thereby regulating DNA damage response mechanism. Essential for the DNA damage checkpoint in larval imaginal disks and neuroblasts and for the DNA replication checkpoint in the embryo. Has also an essential role during early nuclear divisions in embryos, where it is required to delay mitosis in response to incomplete DNA replication. Also plays an important role during meiosis, where it may monitor double-strand-break repair during meiotic crossing over, to regulate the progression of prophase I, and to enforce metaphase I delay observed at the end of oogenesis.
Product Notes
The mei-41 mei-41 (Catalog #
AAA422928) is an Antibody produced from Goat and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Goat anti-mei-41 (Drosophila melanogaster) Antibody reacts with Expected from sequence similarity: Drosophila and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's mei-41 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Peptide ELISA (EIA). Peptide ELISA: Antibody detection limit dilution 1: 128000. Western Blot: Not yet tested. At this stage we are dependent on researchers in the field for further characterization of this product. Therefore we cannot recommend an optimal concentration and the antibody is an aspiring product. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the mei-41 mei-41 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. The amino acid sequence is listed below: DPHCAIEDIK VPLEQ.
It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of
"mei-41, 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.
