Anti-Connexin 43 Antibody, phospho-specific (Ser368)

Recognizes Ser368 phosphorylated Connexin 43. Connexin 43 (Cx43) is a member of the large family of gap junction proteins. Connexins assemble as a hexamer and are transported to the plasma membrane to create a hemichannel that can associate with hemichannels on nearby cells to create cell-to-cell channels. Clusters of these channels assemble to make gap junctions. Gap-junction communication is important in development and regulation of cell growth.

Epitope: phospho-specific (Ser368)

KLH-conjugated, synthetic phospho-peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Ser368 of human Connexin 43.
