Clone No.
PY20
From
Recombinant Antibody
Specificity
PY20 recognizes phospho-tyrosine and phosphotyrosine containing proteins with a reported Kd of 500 nM for the original clone.Whilst phospho-Phenylalanine (Kd = 4 uM M), phospho-Serine (>100 mM) & phospho-Threonine (100 mM) are also detected, the differences in affinity make this antibody primarily phospho-tyrosine specific.
Alternative Names
p-Tyr; Phospho-tyrosine; p-Y
UniProt
Immunogen
Phosphotyrosine conjugated to Keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH).
Application Notes
Protein phosphorylation is a key mechanism of signal transduction in Eukaryotes and Prokaryotes. PY20 has been a crucial antibody in the investigation of these processes. An excellent comparison of anti-phosphotyrosine antibodies can be found here .
