Conjugated Peptide
This affinity purified antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Y256 of human ROCK-2.
This product was affinity purified from monospecific antiserum by immunoaffinity chromatography using phospho-peptide coupled to agarose beads followed by solid phase adsorption against nonphospho-peptide. This antibody is specific for human ROCK-2 protein phosphorylated at Y256. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest cross-reactivity with ROCK-2 from human, mouse, rat, chicken, dog, bovine, Xenopus and Drosophila based on a 100% homology with the immunizing sequence. Cross-reactivity with ROCK-2 from other sources has not been determined.
Application Details
ELISA, WB
This affinity purified antibody has been tested for use in ELISA and western blotting. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. Expect a band approximately 164 kDa in size corresponding to phosphorylated ROCK-2 by western blotting in the appropriate cell lysate or extract. This phospho-specific polyclonal antibody reacts with human ROCK-2 pY256 and shows minimal reactivity by ELISA against the non-phosphorylated form of the immunizing peptide.

This antibody is designed, produced, and validated as part of a collaboration between Rockland and the National Cancer Institute (NCI) and is suitable for Cancer, Immunology and Nuclear Signaling research. Progression of tumors to invasive and metastatic forms requires that tumor cells undergo dramatic morphological changes, a process regulated by Rho GTPases. Increased levels of RhoA or RhoC, as well as the Rho effector proteins ROCK-1 or ROCK-2, were observed in various human carcinomas. In vivo studies have also shown that ROCK inhibition reduced the invasiveness of several tumor cell lines. It is suggested that Rho and ROCK signaling contribute to the morphological changes and metastatic behavior of some tumor cells. Thus, elevated Rho and ROCK expression is associated with tumorigenesis, particularly during the progression to invasive and metastatic phenotypes. Phosphorylation of certain residues in ROCK-2 may be critical for its kinase activity.
