General description

Myristoylated Alanine-Rich C-Kinase Substrate (MARCKS) is a widely expressed substrate of PKC. MARCKS is essential in neuronal development, as mice deficient in it die shortly after birth. Through its basic effector region, MARCKS associates with acidic membrane phospholipids, actin filaments, and calmodulin. Poly (ADP-ribose) also binds the basic effector region, blocking calmodulin binding, membrane association, and phosphorylation by PKC, suggesting that MARCKS may be an effector of the DNA-damage signal transduced by poly (ADP-ribose).

Specificity

MARCKS, phosphoSer152/156.

Immunogen

Epitope: phosphoSer 152/156
Synthetic peptide corresponding to amino acids surrounding the phosphoSer152/156 of rat MARCKS.

Application

Immunohistochemistry(paraffin):
Representative images from a previous lot.
Optimal Staining of MARCKS With Citrate pH 6.0 Epitope Retrieval: Rat Placenta

Optimal working dilutions must be determined by the end user.

Physical form

Affinity purified
Purified rabbit polyclonal IgG in 10 mM Hepes, pH 7.5, with 150 mM NaCl, 100 µg/mL BSA and 50% glycerol.

Storage and Stability

Stable at -20°C in undiluted for up to 6 months from date of receipt. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. Do not store in a self-defrosting freezer.
Handling Recommendations: Upon first thaw, 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
