Description: It is well known that the control of gene expression involves activation of protein kinase cascades that regulate transcription factors within the nucleus (Karin and Hunter, 1995). The cyclic AMP response element binding protein (CREB) is one of the best characterized stimulus-induced transcription factors (Montminy, 1997). This transcription factor is a component of intracellular signaling events that regulate a wide range of biological functions, from spermatogenesis to circadian rhythms and memory (Shaywitz and Greenberg, 1999, Silva et al., 1998). A variety of protein kinases including protein kinase A (PKA), mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), and Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinases (CaMKs) phosphorylate CREB at serine 133 (Ser133), and phosphorylation of Ser133 are required for CREB-mediated transcription (Johannessen et al., 2004, Kornhauser et al., 2002). Anti-Phospho-Ser133 CREB Western blot of a forskolin stimulated rat hippocampal lysate showing specific immunolabeling of the ~45k CREB phosphorylated at Ser133 (Left Lane). The right lane is indicative that the specific immunolabeling of the CREB protein is completely eliminated by treatment with lambda phosphatase ((-Ptase, 1200 units for 30 min).

Specificity: Specific for the ~45k CREB protein phosphorylated at Ser133. Immunolabeling is blocked by (-phosphatase treatment.

Application Details

Application Notes: Recommended Dilution: WB: 1:1000 Quality Control: Western blots performed on each lot.

Purification: Affinity-purified

Storage: Store at -20 °C, stable for 1 year

Restrictions: For Research Use only
