Extra Details:
Spinocerebellar ataxia 1 (SCA1), an autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disorder, is characterized by slurred speech, loss of limb coordination, and gait abnormalities resulting from the degeneration of cerebellar Purkinje cells and of a subset of brainstem neurons (1). Individuals with SCA1 have a highly polymorphic CAG repeat expansion encoding a polyglutamine tract in ataxin-1 (2). Akt phosphorylates ataxin-1 at Ser776, which regulates an association with 14-3-3. This interaction increases ataxin-1 stabilization and accumulation resulting in enhanced neurodegeneration (3). In addition, HSP70 controls the effect that phosphorylation has on ataxin-1 stability (4). Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot. Other applications have not been tested. Recommended Dilutions: Western Blot: 1:1000 Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. For long-term storage, aliquot and store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
