Extra Details:: To effectively promote growth and cell division in a sustained manner, growth factors and mitogens must upregulate translation. Growth factors and mitogens induce the activation of p70 S6 kinase, which in turn phosphorylates the S6 ribosomal protein. Phosphorylation of S6 correlates with an increase in translation, particularly of mRNAs with an oligopyrimidine tract in their 5' untranslated regions. This group of mRNAs (5'TOP) encodes proteins involved in cell cycle progression and proteins that are part of the translational machinery, such as ribosomal proteins and elongation factors. The main in vivo S6 ribosomal protein phosphorylation sites, including Ser235, Ser236, Ser240 and Ser244, are located within a 19 amino acid region in the S6 carboxy-terminus. Applications: Suitable for use in Immunofluoresence/Immunocytochemistry, Immunohistochemistry, Flow Cytometry and Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilutions: Western Blot: 1:1000, incubate membrane with diluted antibody in TBS, 5% BSA, 0.1% Tween-20 at 4°C with gentle shaking, overnight. Immunofluorescence (IC): 1:800 Flow Cytometry (Fixed/Permeabilized): 1:400-1:1600 Immunohistochemistry (paraffin): 1:1000 Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
