Protocols

Specificity / Sensitivity

Parkin (Prk8) Mouse mAb detects endogenous levels of total parkin protein.

Source / Purification

Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with human recombinant parkin and the epitope maps to the carboxy terminus of the protein.

Western Blotting

Western Blotting

Western blot analysis of extracts from PC12 cells, fetal rat brain and mouse brain, using Parkin (Prk8) Mouse mAb.

Background

Parkin is a protein of 465 amino acids with an amino-terminal ubiquitin domain and a carboxy-terminal RING-box (1). In the case of autosomal recessive juvenile Parkinsonism (AR-JP), deletions have been found in the gene on chromosome 6 encoding the protein Parkin (2).
