Extra Details:
To effectively promote growth and cell division in a sustained manner, growth factors and mitogens must upregulate translation (1,2). 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 (2). 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 (2,3). The main in vivo S6 ribosomal protein phosphorylation sites, including Ser235, Ser236, Ser240 and Ser244, have been identified and are located within a small 19 amino acid region in the S6 carboxy terminus (4,5). Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot, Immunofluorescence and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications have not been 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. Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin): 1:50-1:200. Heating in citrate buffer required. Immunofluorescence (Frozen): 1:100-1:400 Immunofluorescence (IC): 1:100-1:400 Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 12 months after receipt. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
