This gene encodes beta-2-adrenergic receptor which is a member of the G protein-coupled receptor superfamily. This receptor is directly associated with one of its ultimate effectors, the class C L-type calcium channel Ca(V)1.2. This receptor-channel complex also contains a G protein, an adenylyl cyclase, cAMP-dependent kinase, and the counterbalancing phosphatase, PP2A. The assembly of the signaling complex provides a mechanism that ensures specific and rapid signaling by this G protein-coupled receptor. This gene is intronless. Different polymorphic forms, point mutations, and/or downregulation of this gene are associated with nocturnal asthma, obesity and type 2 diabetes. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Catalog No
A0764
Reactivity
Human, Mouse, Rat, Monkey
Applications
WB, IHC-p, IF(paraffin section), ELISA
Modification
Phospho Specific
Source
Polyclonal Rabbit
Dilution
Western Blot: 1/500 - 1/2000. Immunohistochemistry: 1/100 - 1/300. ELISA: 1/10000. Not yet tested in other applications.
Purification
The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen.
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human Adrenergic Receptor B2 around the phosphorylation site of Ser355 and Ser356. AA range:331-380
Specificity
Phospho-AR-β2 (S355/S356) Polyclonal Antibody detects endogenous levels of AR-β2 protein only when phosphorylated at S355/S356.
Formulation
Liquid in PBS containing 50% glycerol, 0.5% BSA and 0.02% sodium azide.
