Anti-MP1 (MEK partner 1)

MEK Partner 1 (MP1) was initially identified as a scaffold protein that tethers MEK1 and ERK1 to facilitate their activation. MP1 and other MAPK scaffolds promote phosphorylation efficiency and specificity, localize their bound pathway components to particular subcellular sites, and serve as nodes of signal integration for regulation of MAPK pathways by other signaling events. With the assistance of adaptor protein p14, the bound MP1 complex localizes to late endosomes and is thought to regulate endosomal traffic and cellular proliferation during tissue homeostasis. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot and ELISA. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 1ug/ml, Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: Lyophilized powder may be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Reconstitute to nominal volume by adding sterile 40-50% glycerol and store at -20°C. Reconstituted product is stable for 12 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
