Introduction
Protein Phosphatase 1F (PPM1F), a member of the PP2C family of Ser/Thr protein phosphatases, acts as a negative regulator of cell stress response pathways. PPM1F interacts with Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factors (PIX), thereby inhibiting the activity of p21-activated kinase 1 (PAK), a protein kinase involved in mediating the downstream effects of Rho GTPases. Notably, PPM1F dephosphorylates Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II gamma (CAMK2G/CAMK-II) and has been identified as a promoter of apoptosis.
Physical Appearance
Sterile, colorless solution.
Formulation
The antibody is supplied at a concentration of 1 mg/ml in a solution containing PBS (pH 7.4), 10% glycerol, and 0.02% sodium azide.
Storage Procedures
For short-term storage (up to 1 month), store at 4°C. For extended storage, store at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Stability / Shelf Life
The antibody is stable for 12 months when stored at -20°C and for 1 month at 4°C.
Applications
This antibody has been validated for ELISA and Western blot analysis, demonstrating its specificity and reactivity. However, optimal working dilutions should be determined empirically for each application. A starting dilution of 1:1000 is recommended.
