Reactivity Key: All=All species expected

Specificity / Sensitivity

Phospho-Tyrosine Mouse mAb (P-Tyr-102) (Fluorescein Conjugate) is prepared by cross-linking fluorescein to the epsilon amine groups on lysines and amino-terminal amines. Fluorescein absorbs visible blue light at wavelength 490 nm and emits visible green light at 520 nm. This antibody is useful for immunocytochemical detection of tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins. It does not cross-react with proteins phosphorylated on threonine or serine. (U.S. Patent No's.: 6,441,140; 6,982,318; 7,259,022; 7,344,714; U.S.S.N. 11,484,485; and all foreign equivalents.)

Source / Purification

Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing mice with phospho-Tyr-containing peptides (KLH coupled). The antibody is purified by protein A chromatography.

Flow Cytometry

Flow Cytometry

Flow cytometric analysis of Phospho-Tyrosine Mouse mAb (P-Tyr-102) (Fluorescein Conjugate) staining of untreated (blue) and pervanadate treated (green) NIH/3T3 cells compared with a nonspecific negative control antibody (red).

IF-IC

IF-IC

Immunocytochemical analysis of 10T1/2 cells, untreated (B) or sodium vanadate-treated (1 mM for 0.5 hour) (D), using Phospho-Tyrosine Mouse mAb (P-Tyr-102) (Fluorescein Conjugate). Images A and C are light micrographs of cells stained in B and D.

Background

Tyrosine phosphorylation plays a key role in cellular signaling (1). In cancer, unregulated tyrosine kinase activity can drive malignancy and tumor formation by generating inappropriate proliferation and survival signals (2). Antibodies specific for phospho-tyrosine (3,4) have been invaluable reagents in these studies. The phospho-tyrosine Mouse mAbs developed by CST (P-Tyr-100, #9411 and P-Tyr-102, #9416) provide exceptionally sensitive new tools of increased utility for studying tyrosine phosphoyrlation and monitoring tyrosine kinase activity in high throughput drug discovery.
