Our Girdin (Ser-1416) rabbit polyclonal phosphospecific primary antibody from PhosphoSolutions is produced in-house. It detects human, mouse, and rat Girdin (Ser-1416) and is antigen affinity purified. It is great for use in WB.
Western blot image of human A431 cell lysates treated with Calyculin A (lanes 1-4). The blot was treated with lambda phosphatase to dephosphorylate Girdin phosphosites (lanes 2 & 4). The blot was probed with mouse monoclonal anti-Girdin (lanes 1 & 2) or rabbit polyclonal anti-Girdin (Ser-1416), phospho-specific (lanes 3 & 4).
Girdin, a member of the CCDC88 (Hook related protein) family, is an actin binding protein involved with cell migration and maintaining cytoskeletal organization. Girdin has conserved domains at the N- and C-terminus that bind microtubules and actin, respectively. It enhances PI3-kinase dependent phosphorylation of proteins, most notably Akt. This same activity can contribute to tumor proliferation, invasion, and metastasis in breast, ovarian, prostate, and pancreatic tissues. Girdin is phosphorylated at three separate locations: Ser-1416, Ser-1674, and Tyr-1764. Ser-1416 is the primary Akt phosphorylation site, while Cyclin-dependent kinases interact with Girdin and phosphorylate Ser-1674. Multiple receptor tyrosine kinases can bind girdin and phosphorylate Tyr-1764.

Phospho-Girdin (Ser-1416) synthetic peptide (coupled to carrier) corresponding to amino acid residues around serine 1416 in human Girdin. This sequence is identical in rat and mouse Girdin, and has low homology to similar regions in other Girdin family members.

Storage at -20°C is recommended, as aliquots may be taken without freeze/thawing due to presence of 50% glycerol. Stable for at least 1 year at -20°C.

Unconjugated
The antibody was cross-adsorbed to unphosphorylated Girdin (Ser-1416) peptide before affinity purification using phospho-Girdin (Ser-1416) peptide. This antibody detects a 250 kDa* protein on SDS-PAGE immunoblots of human A431 cells stimulated with EGF or calyculin A. These reactivities are not observed after lambda phosphatase treatment to dephosphorylate Girdin.
