General description

Son of Sevenless (SOS) was first discovered in Drosophila, responsible for normal eye development. Two homologs in mouse and humans have been described, Sos-1 and Sos-2; mouse Sos-1 and Sos-2 are 70% identical. Mammalian Sos proteins are present in the inner cell membrane. Sos-1 is a dual guanine nucleotide exchange factor that activates Rac1 and Ras in response to growth factors. Sos-1 can associate also with the GRAP adaptor protein and it is also capable of forming complexes that exhibit Rac-specific guanine nucleotide exchange factor activity. Along with receptor tyrosine kinases, Sos-1 plays an important role in cellular migration and proliferation. In plants, Sos-1 is important to maintain salt concentration across the cell membranes.
Anti-Sos-1 specifically recognizes Sos-1 by immunoblotting (170 kDa). An additional band of lower molecular weight may be detected in some cell line extracts.

Immunogen

synthetic peptide corresponding to the C-terminus region of SOS-1 of human origin (amino acids 1315-1333). This sequence is identical in mouse.

Application

Detection of Sos-1 by immunoblotting is possible by using a minimum antibody working dilution of 1:4,000 in whole extracts of A431 (human epidermoid carcinoma) and PC 12 (rat pheochromocytoma) cell lines. For indirect immunofluorescent staining a minimum working dilution of 1:500 may be used in cultured canine MDCK cells. The antibody is suitable for protein microarray.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide
