Product Name: Connexin 43 (phospho Ser368) Antibody
Species Reactivity: Bovine, Chicken, Dog, Goat, Human, Mouse, Rat, Zebrafish
Tested Applications: WB
Applications: The antibody has been directly tested for reactivity in Western blots with rat tissue. It is anticipated that the antibody will react with bovine, canine, chicken, guinea pig, human, mouse and zebra fish based on the fact that these species have 100% homology with the amino acid sequence used as antigen.
User Note: Optimal dilutions for each application to be determined by the researcher.

Background: Gap junctional intercellular communication is thought to play a key role in development and may also be involved in epilepsy (Aronica et al., 2001). Connexin 43 forms gap-junctional channels and regulates the permeability of these gap junctions to small organic molecules. Permeability of connexin 43 is known to be regulated by phosphorylation at Ser368 by protein kinase C (Yogo et al., 2002; Bao et al., 2004a). Phosphorylation of Ser368 by PKC induces a conformational change of connexin 43 that results in a decrease in gap junction permeability (Bao et al., 2004b).
