Extract from human PBMC activated with PHA and IL-2 for 5 days was resolved by electrophoresis, transferred to nitrocellulose, and probed with rabbit anti-paxillin (Tyr118) antibody. Proteins were visualized using a donkey anti-rabbit secondary conjugated to HRP and a chemiluminescence detection system. Lane 1, PHA and IL-2 activated PBMC. Lane 2, PHA and IL-2 activated PBMC crosslinked with a-CD3 antibody for 5 min showing an upregulation of phospho-paxillin. In addition to the specific paxillin band, this polyclonal antibody recognizes an unknown protein with an apparent mass of 100 kD.
Description:
Paxillin (also known as peroxisomal membrane protein 3) is a cytoplasmic protein with LIM metal-binding repeat homology and LIM domains. There are three isoforms of this protein designated as α, β, γ; approximate molecular weight 68 kD. Paxillin is localized to actin-membrane attachment at sites of cell adhesion to extracellular matrix (focal adhesion). This protein undergoes cell adhesion-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation. Paxillin has been shown to interact with FAK, vinculin, src, Crk, p210BRC / ABL, talin, and integrin-β1. The Poly6009 antibody recognizes human phosphorylated paxillin (Tyr118) and has been shown to be useful for Western blotting.
