Immunogen
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human CD28 around the phosphorylation site of Tyr218. AA range:171-220
Specificity
Phospho-CD28 (Y218) Polyclonal Antibody detects endogenous levels of CD28 protein only when phosphorylated at Y218.
Formulation
Liquid in PBS containing 50% glycerol, 0.5% BSA and 0.02% sodium azide.
Dilution rate
Western Blot: 1/500 - 1/2000. ELISA: 1/40000. Not yet tested in other applications.
Purification process (Immunogen)
The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen.
Background
The protein encoded by this gene is essential for T-cell proliferation and survival, cytokine production, and T-helper type-2 development. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Jul 2011],
Function
function:Involved in T-cell activation, the induction of cell proliferation and cytokine production and promotion of T-cell survival.,online information:CD28 entry,similarity:Contains 1 Ig-like V-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain.,subunit:Homodimer; disulfide-linked. Interacts with DUSP14. Binds to CD80/B7-1 and CD86/B7-2/B70.,tissue specificity:Expressed in T-cells and plasma cells, but not in less mature B-cells.,
