Immunoprecipitation (IP)

(Peptide Competition and Phosphatase Stripping Total cell lysates (1) or immunoprecipitates (2-7) prepared from Hek293 cells overexpressing c-Raf and stimulated with EGF were resolved by SDS-PAGE on a 10% polyacrylamide gel and transferred to PVDF. Membranes were either untreated (1-6), or treated with lambda (λ) phosphatase (7), blocked with a 5% BSA-TBST buffer overnight at 4oC, then incubated with 0.50 µg/mL c-Raf [pS259] antibody for two hours at room temperature in a 3% BSA-TBST buffer, following prior incubation with: no peptide (1, 2, 6, 7), the non-phosphopeptide corresponding to the immunogen (3), a generic phosphoserine-containing peptide (4), or, the phosphopeptide immunogen (5). After washing, membranes were incubated with goat F(ab’)2 anti-rabbit IgG alkaline phosphatase and signals were detected using the Tropix WesternStar method. The data show that only the peptide corresponding to c-Raf [pS259] blocks the antibody signal, thereby demonstrating the specificity of the antibody. The data also show that phosphatase stripping eliminates the signal, verifying that the antibody is phosphospecific.)

Related Product Information for anti-Raf antibody
The Raf family of serine/threonine-specific kinases is comprised of three members (A-Raf, B-Raf and c-Raf) that play a critical role in regulating cell growth and differentiation and couple growth factor receptor stimulation to nuclear transcription factors via the Ras/mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. c-Raf kinase (also known as Raf-1) is a key 74kD signal transducer of multiple extracellular stimuli that is regulated by several pathways and that once activated, phosphorylates MEK which in turn phosphorylates ERK. Serine 259 is one of the three constitutive phosphorylation sites of c-Raf in resting cells together with serine 43 and serine 621. Serine 259 is phosphorylated by PKA and is the main mediator of PKA-induced inhibition of c-Raf kinase activity. Phosphorylation of serine 259 blocks the membrane localization of c-Raf.

Product Notes

The Raf (Catalog #AAA628216) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Raf, phosphorylated (Ser259) (Raf-1, c-Raf) reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Raf can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB). Suitable for use in Western Blot. Dilution: Western Blot: 0.1-1ug/ml. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the Raf 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, 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.
