Biochem/physiol Actions

Gravin (or AKAP12) is a scaffolding kinase that functions as a tumor suppressor. This kinase interacts with PKC, PKA and other cell cycle signaling proteins to modulate cell division, growth, differentiation and inflammatory responses. The expression of gravin isoforms (α, β, and γ) is regulated by tissue-specific promoters. Gravin also acts as an autoantigen in myasthenia gravis patients .

General description

Monoclonal Anti-Gravin (mouse IgG2a isotype) is derived from the hybridoma JP74 produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells (X63Ag8.653) and splenocytes from BALB/c mice immunized with fractionated membrane cortex proteins from human neurons [cell lines NT2-N and SK-N-BE(2)]. Gravin protein is a myristoylated high molecular weight cytoplasmic protein expressed in endothelial cells, cultured fibroblasts and osteosarcoma cells and highly expressed in the brain.

Immunogen

fractionated membrane cortex proteins from human neuron cell lines NT2-N and SK-N-BE(2).

Physical form

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

Specificity

Monoclonal Anti-Gravin antibody is specific for human, rat and mouse gravin (approx. 300 kDa).
