| Background Information | Ribosomal protein S6 kinase alpha-1 (EC 2.7.11.1; UniProt Q15418; also known as 90 kDa ribosomal protein S6 kinase 1, MAP kinase-activated protein kinase 1a, MAPK-activated protein kinase 1a, MAPKAP kinase 1a, MAPKAPK-1a, p90-RSK 1, p90RSK1, p90S6K, Ribosomal S6 kinase 1, RSK-1, S6K-alpha-1) is encoded by the RPS6KA1 (also known as MAPKAPK1A, RSK1) gene (Gene ID 6195) in human. Ribosomal s6 kinases (RSKs) are serine/threonine kinases that play a role in mediating Mek1/2-Erk1/2 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase pathway signaling events. There exist two types of RSKs, p70rsk (a.k.a. S6 Kinase or S6-H1 kinase) and p90rsk (a.k.a. MAPK-activated protein kinase). Six p90rsk-coding genes have been identified in human, RPS6KA1 (MAPKAPK1A, RSK1), RPS6KA2 (MAPKAPK1C, RSK3), RPS6KA3 (MAPKAPK1B, RSK2), RPS6KA4 (MSK2), RPS6KA5 (MSK1), and RPS6KA6 (RSK4). Erk1/2 activates p90RSK1 by sequential phosphorylation events, where it first phosphorylates Rsk1 C-terminal kinase domain (CTKD) Thr573, leading to subsequent Ser380 phosphorylation in the N-terminal AGC kinase-type domain. Alternatively, Ser380 can be phosphorylated directly by MK2/3 independent of CTKD. |

| Presentation | Purified rabbit polyclonal antibody in buffer containing 0.1 M Tris-Glycine (pH 7.4), 150 mM NaCl with 0.05% sodium azide. |
| Quality Level | MQ100 |
| Applications | |
|---|---|
| Application | Anti-Rsk1 Antibody is an antibody against phospho-Rsk1 (Thr359/Ser363) for use in Western Blotting, Immunoprecipitation, Immunohistochemistry, Peptide Inhibition Assay. |
| Key Applications |
|
| Application Notes | Immunoprecipitation Analysis: 4.5 µg from a representative lot immunoprecipitated Thr359/Ser363-phosphorylated Rsk1 from 500 µg of lysate from EGF-treated A431 cells. Immunohistochemistry Analysis: A 1:250-1000 dilution from a representative lot detected Rsk1 Thr359/Ser363 phosphorylation in human cervical cancer tissue, normal kidney, liver, and small intestine tissue sections. Peptide Inhibition Assay: Preincubation with the immunogen peptide, but not the corresponding non-phosphorylated control peptide, prevented the polyclonal antibody from detecting the target Rsk1 phosphorylation band. |

| Specificity | Specificity of this polyclonal antibody was verified by immunogen peptide blocking in Western blotting analysis of EGF-induced target phosphorylation. The target phosphorylation sites Thr359/Ser363 are numbered based on human Rsk1 spliced isoform 1 (UniProt Q15418-1). Equivalent sites in spliced isoform 2, 3, and 4 are Thr368/Ser372 (UniProt Q15418-2), Thr267/Ser271 (UniProt Q15418-3), and Thr343/Ser347 (UniProt Q15418-4), respectively. |
