This Rabbit Polyclonal antibody specifically detects STAT1 in WB and IHC. It exhibits reactivity toward Human, Mouse and Rat. It has been mentioned in 3+ publications
The antibody detects endogenous level of STAT1 only when phosphorylated at tyrosine 701.
Purification
The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific phosphopeptide. The antibody against non-phosphopeptide was removed by chromatography using non-phosphopeptide corresponding to the phosphorylation site.
Immunogen
Peptide sequence around phosphorylation site of pTyr701 (T-G-Y (p) -I-K) derived from Human STAT1. Antibodies were produced by immunizing rabbits with synthetic phosphopeptide and KLH conjugates.

Background
Signal transducer and activator of transcription that mediates signaling by interferons (IFNs). Following type I IFN (IFN-a and IFN-beta) binding to cell surface receptors, Jak kinases (TYK2 and JAK1) are activated, leading to tyrosine phosphorylation of STAT1 and STAT2. The phosphorylated STATs dimerize, associate with ISGF3G/IRF-9 to form a complex termed ISGF3 transcription factor, that enters the nucleus. ISGF3 binds to the IFN stimulated response element (ISRE) to activate the transcription of interferon stimulated genes, which drive the cell in an antiviral state. In response to type II IFN (IFN-gamma), STAT1 is tyrosine- and serine-phosphorylated. It then forms a homodimer termed IFN-gamma-activated factor (GAF), migrates into the nucleus and binds to the IFN gamma activated sequence (GAS) to drive the expression of the target genes, inducing a cellular antiviral state.
