Relevance 

Rb is a tumor suppressor gene which functions as a negative regulator of the cell cycle by interacting with transcription factors including E2F1, PU1, ATF2, UBF, Elf1 and cAbl. This ability of Rb to alter transcription is regulated by phosphorylation catalyzed by the cyclin dependent protein kinases (cdks). Rb is phosphorylated on serine and threonine, but not on tyrosine residues. It forms a complex with SV40 large T antigen, adenovirus E1A, and human papilloma virus 16E. Rb protein may act by regulating transcription and loss of its function leads to uncontrolled cell growth. Aberrations in the Rb gene have been implicated in cancers of breast, colon, prostate, kidney, nasopharynx, and leukemia.

Purification notes 

Purified from rabbit serum by sequential epitope-specific chromatography. The antibody has been negatively preadsorbed using a non-phosphopeptide corresponding to the site of phosphorylation to remove antibody that is reactive with non-phosphorylated Rb protein. The final product is generated by affinity chromatography using a Rb-derived peptide that is phosphorylated at threonine 821.

Predicted band size : 106 kDa


Peptide Competition: Cell extracts prepared from Jurkat cells in high growth phase were resolved by SDS-PAGE on a 10% Tris-glycine gel and transferred to PVDF. Membranes were incubated with 0.50 µg/mL ab4787, following prior incubation in the: absence of the phosphopeptide immunogen (1), a generic phosphothreonine containing peptide (2), the non phosphopeptide corresponding to the phosphopeptide immunogen (3), or the presence of the phosphopeptide immunogen (4). After washing, membranes were incubated with goat F(ab’)2 anti-rabbit IgG alkaline phosphatase and bands were detected using the Tropix WesternStar detection method. The data show that only the phosphopeptide corresponding to this site blocks the antibody signal, demonstrating the specificity of the ab4787 antibody for this epitope.
