Anti-Paxillin, phosphorylated, Tyr31 (PXN)

Paxillin is a 68kD cytoskeletal adapter protein involved in organization and function of focal, adhesions, which are critical to cell adhesion and migration. This in turn plays a role in a wide, variety of processes including embryogenesis, organogenesis, wound repair, inflammation and, cancer. Paxillin contains LD motifs, LIM domains, SH3 and SH2 binding domains that serve as, docking sites for cytoskeletal proteins, tyrosine kinases (e.g., FAK, Pyk2, Src), serine/threonine, kinases, GTPase activating proteins and other adaptor proteins (e.g., actin, vinculin, Crk). Tyrosine, 31, a Crk binding site of paxillin, is phosphorylated during integrin-mediated cell adhesion. Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 1:1000, Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Positive Control: NMuMG cells, Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
