Phospho-LAT (Tyr191) Antibody #3584

Applications Reactivity Sensitivity MW (kDa) Source
W IP H Endogenous 36, 38 Rabbit

Applications Key:  W=Western Blotting  IP=Immunoprecipitation
Reactivity Key:  H=Human
Species cross-reactivity is determined by Western blot.

Specificity / Sensitivity

Phospho LAT (Tyr191) Antibody detects endogenous levels of LAT only when phosphorylated at tyrosine 191.

Source / Purification

Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing rabbits with a synthetic phospho-peptide (KLH-coupled) corresponding to residues around Tyr191 of human LAT. Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.

Western Blotting

Western Blotting

Western blot analysis of SDS extracts from untreated or anti-CD3 treated (10 µg/ml for 2 minutes) human Jurkat cells after overnight serum starvation using Phospho-LAT (Tyr191) Antibody.

Background

LAT, a transmembrane adaptor protein expressed in T, NK and mast cells, is an important mediator for T cell receptor (TCR) signaling (1). Upon TCR engagement, activated Zap-70 phosphorylates LAT at multiple conserved tyrosine residues within SH2 binding motifs, exposing these motifs as the docking sites for downstream signaling targets (2,3). The phosphorylation of LAT at Tyr171 and 191 enables the binding of Grb2, Gads/SLP-76, PLCgamma1 and PI3 kinase through their SH2 domain and translocates them to the membrane. This process eventually leads to activation of the corresponding signaling pathways (1-4).
