Application Instructions

Application Suggestion
Tested Application Dilution
WB1:1,000
Application Note Specific for the ~83k FAM129B phosphorylated at Ser679/683 . Immunolabeling is blocked by preadsorption of antibody with the phospho-peptide that was used to geneRate the antibody but not by the corresponding dephospho-peptide.
* The dilutions indicate recommended starting dilutions and the optimal dilutions or concentrations should be determined by the scientist.

GeneID: 227737 Mouse FAM129B

Swiss-port # Q8R1F1 Mouse Niban-like protein 1

Gene Symbol FAM129B
Gene Full Name family with sequence similarity 129, member B
Background FAM129B, also known as Niban-like protein 1, belongs to a poorly characterized protein family with unknown category and function. Increased expression of the Niban gene has been observed in renal carcinomas (Adachi et al., 2004; Sun et al., 2007). Suppression of FAM129B expression in HeLa cells has been seen to promote apoptosis, suggesting that it can modulate cell death signaling, and may be involved in the ER stress response (Sun et al., 2007). FAM129B is also up-regulated in various types of thyroid tumors and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (Matsumoto et al., 2006). It has been suggested that the MAP kinase dependent phosphorylation of FAM129B is important in controlling melanoma cells, as inhibition of B/Raf/MKK/ERK in melanoma cells represses invasion (Old et al., 2009). It is believed that phosphorylated FAM129B not only derepresses invasion, but also regulates events that promote invasion (Old et al., 2009).
Research Area Cell Biology and Cellular Response antibody
Calculated MW 84 kDa
PTM Phosphorylated at Ser-641, Ser-646, Ser-692 and Ser-696 by the BRAF/MKK/ERK signaling cascade. In melanoma cells, the C-terminal phosphorylation may prevent targeting to the plasma membrane.
As apoptosis proceeds, degraded via an proteasome-independent pathway, probably by caspases.
