Anti-ACTIVE ® CaM KII pAb, Rabbit, (pT 286 ) 40 μl V1111 678<br />

For Research Use Only. Not for Use in Diagnostic Procedures.<br />

Description: This polyclonal antibody (pAb) is specific for the multifunctional<br />

calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase CaM kinase II (CaM KII) that is<br />

phosphorylated on threonine 286 (pT 286 ). The Anti-ACTIVE ® CaM KII pAb was<br />

raised against the phosphothreonine-containing peptide.<br />

Features:<br />

• Specificity: Preferentially detects CaM KII autophosphorylated on<br />

threonine 286.<br />

• Immunogen: Threonine-phosphorylated peptide corresponding to the<br />

phosphorylated Thr 286 region of the mammalian calcium/calmodulindependent<br />

protein kinase.<br />

• Antibody Form: Affinity-purified rabbit IgG; supplied in 10mM sodium<br />

phosphate (pH 7.4), 20mM NaCl.<br />

• Value: When used at the recommended dilution of 1:5,000, it generates<br />

up to 200ml of blotting solution sufficient for 20 Western blots of 10ml<br />

each.<br />

Storage Conditions: Store at –20°C.<br />

Immunocytochemical detection of autophosphorylated CaM KII in<br />

PC12 cells with Anti-ACTIVE ® CaM KII pAb. PC12 cells were adhered<br />

to slides coated with collagen, fixed in 10% paraformaldehyde for<br />

30 minutes, rinsed in PBS and permeabilized in methanol for 10 minutes<br />

at –20˚C. The cells were then blocked in 1% BSA in PBS for 45 minutes<br />

followed by 2% horse serum in PBS for 60 minutes. Cells were incubated<br />

overnight at 4˚C with (Panel A) Ab alone, (Panel B) Ab preincubated<br />

with a nonphosphorylated CaM KII peptide fragment (1µg/ml) or<br />

(Panel C) Ab preincubated with a phosphorylated CaM KII peptide fragment<br />

(1µg/ml). The Anti-ACTIVE ® CaM KII pAb was used at 1:500 dilution and<br />

preincubated with peptide for 8 hours at 4˚C. After incubation with the<br />

Anti-ACTIVE ® CaM KII pAb or Ab/peptide mixture, the cells were rinsed in<br />

PBS and incubated with a donkey anti-rabbit FITC-conjugated secondary<br />

Ab (1:500) for 60 minutes at room temperature. Staining was visualized<br />

with a Zeiss ® fluorescence microscope. The results demonstrate that<br />

preincubation of the Anti-ACTIVE ® CaM KII pAb with phosphorylated<br />

CaM KII peptide completely abolishes immunostaining (Panel C), but<br />

preincubation with nonphosphorylated CaM KII peptide has no effect on<br />

immunostaining (Panel A versus Panel B). Protocols developed and<br />

performed at <strong>Promega</strong>.<br />

Imaging and Immunological Detection<br />

Detection of CaM KII by Anti-ACTIVE ® CaM KII pAb in Western<br />

analysis of rat brain homogenate. Lanes 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 contain<br />

autophosphorylated (+) brain cytosolic protein in the amounts shown; lanes<br />

3, 5, 7, 9 and 11 contain nonphosphorylated (–) brain cytosolic protein in<br />

the amounts shown. The presence of the autophosphorylated CaM KII was<br />

detected using the Anti-ACTIVE ® CaM KII pAb diluted 1:5,000.<br />
