Introduction

Eukaryotes have complex post-transcriptional modification processes, such as glycosylation, methylation, phosphorylation, acetylation, and so on, the modification of special location is often related to the function of the protein. In order to detect these modifications, antibodies specific to post transcriptional modifications have become a necessary material for modern protein functional omics and epigenetics.

Combined with years of experience in the preparation of small molecular hapten antibodies and the advantage of peptide synthesis technology, Leading Biology developed a complete technical route for the preparation of post transcriptional modified structural antibodies. We can not only provide the modified groups that can reflect the level of the expression of a modified group in the whole protein group (e.g. The full lysate of a tissue or cell), but also could provide antibodies specific to the protein specific location modification.

Service Package

Note:

1. For site post-transcriptional methylation, acetylation, and partial glycosylated modification specific antibodies, if customers require high specificity, then the antibody must be a monoclonal antibody, so far the polyclonal process only used for the detection of whole protein modification;

2. The difficulties of post-translational modification specific antibody preparation are as follows: Methylation site specific antibody is the hardest, followed by acetylation specific antibody, phosphorylation specific antibody technique is relatively mature, and glycosylation specific antibody is different regarding the length of the sugar chain;

3. Because the modification site is only a hapten, the immunogenicity is relatively weak, there is a certain risk of the experiment. Before the project start, we will charge the 60% of total price, if the project failed, the money won’t return to customers.

Title: ULK1 translocates to mitochondria and phosphorylates FUNDC1 to regulate mitophagy.

Name: Anti-p-ser17 fundc1 antibody

Species: mouse

Type: Rabbit polyclonal antibody

F1. The mitophagy receptor FUNDC 1 is a novel substrate of ULK 1 and FUNDC 1 (N 118 A) that prevents its binding to ULK 1, impairs ULK 1 translocation to mitochondria, and inhibits mitophagy. Transfection with HA-ULK1 markedly promoted the phosphorylation of FUNDC1 at Ser-17, while transfection with the kinase-inactivated HA-ULK1 (K46N) showed much weaker phosphorylation since the mutant ULK1 (K46N) still has minor kinase activity.
