Protocols

Specificity / Sensitivity

Src Antibody detects endogenous levels of Src proteins. This antibody may cross-react with other Src family members, but does not cross-react with other non-family proteins.

Source / Purification

Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues close to the carboxy-terminus of human Src. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.

Western Blotting

Western Blotting

Western blot analysis of extracts from various cell lines using Src Antibody.

Flow Cytometry

Flow Cytometry

Flow cytometric analysis of Jurkat cells, using Src Antibody (blue) compared to a nonspecifc negative control antibody (red).

IF-IC

IF-IC

Confocal immunofluorescent analysis of MCF7 cells labeled with Src Antibody (red). Blue=DRAQ5® #4084 fluorescent DNA dye.


Background

The Src family of protein tyrosine kinases, which includes Src, Lyn, Fyn, Yes, Lck, Blk, and Hck, are important in the regulation of growth and differentiation of eukaryotic cells (1). Src activity is regulated by tyrosine phosphorylation at two sites, but with opposing effects. While phosphorylation at Tyr416 in the activation loop of the kinase domain upregulates enzyme activity, phosphorylation at Tyr527 in the carboxy-terminal tail by Csk renders the enzyme less active (2).
