Specificity
This antibody was cross-adsorbed to unphosphorylatednMHC-IIA (Ser-1943) peptide before affinity purification using phospho-NMHC-IIA (Ser-1943) peptide (without carrier). The antibody detects a 200kDa* protein corresponding tonMHC-IIA on SDS-PAGE immunoblots of human A431, Jurkat, mouse C2C12, and rat PC12 cells. This reactivity is removed after treatment with lambda phosphatase. The antibody also detectsnMHC-IIA (Ser-1943) phosphorylation in chick Fibroblasts.

This labeling is compared to F-actin staining (Bottom, Green) and to secondary only (Top). (Image provided by Dr. Gianluca Gallo at Drexel University).)

Related Product Information for anti-MYH9 antibody
Non-muscle myosin II is an actin-based motor protein essential to cell motility, cell division, migration, adhesion and polarity. This myosin forms a hexameric complex comprised of two heavy chains (NMHC-II), two essential light chains, and two regulatory light chains (RLC). In vertebrates, there are threenMHC-II isoforms (NMHC-IIA, nMHC-IIB, andnMHC-IIC), which exhibit distinct patterns of expression in cells and tissues. Regulation ofnMHC-II activity occurs through RLC and HC phosphorylation. RLCs are phosphorylated at Thr-18 and Ser-19, leading to activation of myosin II motor activity and increased myosin filament stability. By contrast, PKC phosphorylation of Ser-1/Ser-2 and Thr-9 in RLC may decrease activated myosin II interaction with actin.nMHC-II phosphorylation may be an important mode for regulating myosin-II assembly. PKC phosphorylatesnMHC-IIA on Ser-1916 in the C-terminal region andnMHC-IIB on multiple serines in the tailpiece. Casein kinase II phosphorylatesnMHC-IIA on Ser-1943 in the tailpiece and increases disassembly ofnMHC-IIA filaments.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes a conventional non-muscle myosin; this protein should not be confused with the unconventional myosin-9a or 9b (MYO9A or MYO9B). The encoded protein is a myosin IIA heavy chain that contains an IQ domain and a myosin head-like domain which is involved in several important functions, including cytokinesis, cell motility and maintenance of cell shape. Defects in this gene have been associated with non-syndromic sensorineural deafness autosomal dominant type 17, Epstein syndrome, Alport syndrome with macrothrombocytopenia, Sebastian syndrome, Fechtner syndrome and macrothrombocytopenia with progressive sensorineural deafness.

Uniprot Description

MYH9: Cellular myosin that appears to play a role in cytokinesis, cell shape, and specialized functions such as secretion and capping. Interacts with PDLIM2. Interacts with SLC6A4. Myosin is a hexameric protein that consists of 2 heavy chain subunits (MHC), 2 alkali light chain subunits (MLC) and 2 regulatory light chain subunits (MLC-2). Interacts with RASIP1. Interacts with DDR1. Interacts with SVIL and HTRA3. In the kidney, expressed in the glomeruli. Also expressed in leukocytes. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

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 "Myosin IIA Heavy Chain, 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.
