Raf-1 phospho S642 Antibody

Raf-1 pS642 antibody detects phosphorylated Raf-1. The Ras pathway is a critical signal transduction cascade involved in regulating cellular proliferation, differentiation, survival, and oncogenic transformation. Members of the Raf serine/threonine kinase family are key intermediates in this cascade, functioning to relay signals from activated Ras to the downstream protein kinases MEK and ERK. Previous studies have shown that phosphorylation is required for Raf-1 activation. Recent work has demonstrated that phosphorylation also regulates the downregulation of Raf with two sites participating: Ser301 and Ser642. Anti-Raf-1 pS642 Antibody is ideal for investigators involved in Cancer, Neuroscience, Signal Transduction research. Anti-Raf 1 pS642 antibody is tested for use in Western Blotting. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. Expect a band of approximately 74 kDa in size corresponding to Raf-1 protein phosphorylated at Ser642 in the appropriate cell lysate or extract.
