Anti-pan-MAGUK Antibody, clone K28/86

The MAGUKs are membrane-associated guanylate kinase related (MAGUK) proteins that are defined by their inclusion of PDZ, SH3 and GUK domains. The GUK domain that they have is structurally very similar to that of the guanylate kinases, which converts ATP into ADP. However, it is known to be catalytically inactive as the P-Loop which normally binds ATP is absent. It is thought that the MAGUKs have adopted the GUK domain for their own purposes, primarily based on its ability to form protein-protein interactions with cytoskeleton proteins, microtubule/actin based machinery and molecules involved in signal transduction. In addition many of the MAGUK proteins also contain regions homologous of CaMKII, WW and L27 domains. Some of the members of the MAGUK family of proteins include DLG4 (Disks large homolog 4), DLG2, PSD95, MPP1 and other cytoskeleton-interacting proteins.

This antibody exhibits cross reactivity against recombinant Chapsyn-110, SAP97, and SAP102. (UC Davis/NIH NeuroMab Facility, http://neuromab.ucdavis.edu)

Recombinant protein corresponding to a fusion domain of human PSD95/SAP90 proteins.

Anti-pan-MAGUK Antibody, clone K28/86 is an antibody against pan-MAGUK for use in IH, WB & IP.

Immunohistochemistry Analysis: 1:500 dilution from a previous lot detected the MAGUK family of proteins in rat cerebellum and rat hypothalamus tissues.

Immunoprecipitation Analysis: A previous lot of this antibody was successfully used by an independent laboratory in IP. (Rasband, M., et al. (2002). The Journal of Cell Biology. 159(4):663–672.)
