General description

115 kDa
Gab1 is a 115 kDa multiple docking protein that plays an essential role in cellular growth, transformation and apoptosis. Gab1 can be phosphorylated by multiple receptor tyrosine kinase (RTKs), including: insulin receptor (IR), platelet derived growth factor receptor beta] (PDGFR-β]), hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor receptor (HGFR/SFR or c Met), and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGF), as well as in response to cell cell adhesion. Gab1 is tyrosine phosphorylated on at least 16 sites, some of which serve as binding sites for phosphoatidylinositol 3 kinase (PI3K), Grb2, PLC gamma 1, Nck, and SHP2. Phosphorylation of Gab1 on tyrosines 627 and 659 is critical for its binding to SHP2, and for activation of the ERK/MAPK pathway in response to EGF.

Immunogen

31 residue peptide sequence corresponding to C-terminal residues 664-694 of Gab1 (CQKTLALKSTREAWTDGRQSTESETPAKSVK).
Epitope: C-terminus

Application

Anti-Gab1 Antibody, CT detects level of Gab1 & has been published & validated for use in IC, IH(P), IP & WB.
Immunoprecipitation:
4 μg of this lot immunoprecipitated Gab1 from 500 μg of a human A431 carcinoma cell RIPA lysate.

Immunocytochemistry:
10 μg/mL of a previous lot showed positive immunostaining for Gab1 in A431 cells fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde.
Research Category
Signaling
Research Sub Category
MAP Kinases

Biochem/physiol Actions

Reactivity with other species has not been confirmed.
Specific for Gab1. No other known protein shares more than 10 amino acids with the immunizing sequence.

Physical form

Affinity purified
Affinity purified IgG in buffer containing 0.1 M Tris-glycine, pH 7.4, 0.15 M NaCl, 0.05% sodium azide. Frozen solution.

Preparation Note

Stable for 1 year at -20ºC from date of receipt.
Handling Recommendations: Upon receipt, and prior to removing the cap, centrifuge the vial and gently mix the solution. Aliquot into microcentrifuge tubes and store at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles, which may damage IgG and affect product performance. Note: Variability in freezer temperatures below -20°C may cause glycerol containing solutions to become frozen during storage.

Analysis Note

Control
Non-stimulated A431 carcinoma cell lysate or NIH/3T3 cytoplasmic lysate.
Routinely evaluated by Western Blot on RIPA lysates from human A431 carcinoma cells.

Western Blot Analysis:
0.5-2 μg/mL of this lot detected Gab1 in RIPA lysates from human A431 carcinoma cells.

Other Notes

Concentration: Please refer to the Certificate of Analysis for the lot-specific concentration.
