Millipore This Anti-Phospho-Marcks (Ser152/156) Antibody Is Validated For Use In Wb, Ih(P) For The Detection Of Phospho-Marcks (Ser152/156). - Mill (Additional S&H or Hazmat Fees May Apply)
Protein kinase C substrate, 80 kDa protein, light chain
Background Information
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).

Entrez Gene Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a substrate for protein kinase C. It is localized to the plasma membrane and is an actin filament crosslinking protein. Phosphorylation by protein kinase C or binding to calcium-calmodulin inhibits its association with actin and with the plasma membrane, leading to its presence in the cytoplasm. The protein is thought to be involved in cell motility, phagocytosis, membrane trafficking and mitogenesis.

UniProt Summary
FUNCTION: SwissProt: P29966 # MARCKS is the most prominent cellular substrate for protein kinase C. This protein binds calmodulin, actin, and synapsin. MARCKS is a filamentous (F) actin cross-linking protein. SIZE: 332 amino acids; 31555 Da PTM: Phosphorylation by PKC displaces MARCKS from the membrane. It also inhibits the F-actin cross-linking activity. SIMILARITY: SwissProt: P29966 ## Belongs to the MARCKS family.

Storage and Shipping Information
Storage Conditions
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.
