Description

The MAPKAPK-2 Antibody Sampler Kit provides an economical means of evaluating levels of MAPKAPK-2 protein phosphorylated at specific sites, as well as total MAPKAPK-2 protein levels. The kit contains enough primary and secondary antibodies to perform two Western blot experiments.

Storage

Supplied in 10 mM sodium HEPES (pH 7.5), 150 mM NaCl, 100 µg/ml BSA, 50% glycerol and less than 0.02% sodium azide. Store at –20°C. Do not aliquot the antibody.

Background

In response to cytokines, stress, and chemotactic factors, MAP kinase-activated protein kinase 2 (MAPKAPK-2) is rapidly phosphorylated and activated. It has been shown that MAPKAPK-2 is a direct target of p38 MAPK (1). Multiple residues of MAPKAPK-2 are phosphorylated in vivo in response to stress. However, only four residues (Thr25, Thr222, Ser272, and Thr334) are phosphorylated by p38 MAPK in an in vitro kinase assay (2). Phosphorylation at Thr222, Ser272, and Thr334 appears to be essential for the activity of MAPKAPK-2 (2). Thr25 is phosphorylated by p42 MAPK in vitro, but is not required for the activation of MAPKAPK-2 (2).

    Western blot analysis of cell extracts from MAPKAPK-2 wild type (WT) and knockout (KO) mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEF) using MAPKAPK-2 (D1E11) Rabbit mAb (upper) or GAPDH (D16H11) XP® Rabbit mAb #5174 (lower). MAPKAPK-2 WT and KO MEFs were generously provided by Drs. Sandra Morandell and Michael Yaffe, David H.
