The antibody detects endogenous level of total P38MAPK protein.
Purification
The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography usingepitope-specific immunogen. Specificity/Sensitivity P38MAPK (Ab-182) antibody detects endogenous levels of total P38MAPK protein.
Immunogen
Peptide sequence around AA 180-184 (T-G-Y-V-A) derived from Human P38 MAPK. Antibodies were produced by immunizing rabbits with synthetic peptide and KLH conjugates.

Target
MAPK14
(Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase 14 (MAPK14))
Responds to activation by environmental stress, pro-inflammatory cytokines and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) by phosphorylating a number of transcription factors, such as ELK1 and ATF2 and several downstream kinases, such as MAPKAPK2 and MAPKAPK5. Plays a critical role in the production of some cytokines, for example IL-6. May play a role in stabilization of EPO mRNA during hypoxic stress. Isoform Mxi2 activation is stimulated by mitogens and oxidative stress and only poorly phosphorylates ELK1 and ATF2. Isoform Exip may play a role in the early onset of apoptosis.
