ELISA, Immunohistochemistry, Immunoprecipitation, Western Blot. Anti-Myosin pS19/pS20 phospho specific polyclonal antibody was tested by ELISA, immunohistochemistry and immunoblotting. Immunoblotting was used to show reactivity with unstimulated and stimulated cardiac myocytes. The antibody was also reactive with the phosphorylated form of the immunizing peptide and minimally reactive with the non-phosphorylated form of the immunizing peptide. Although not tested, this antibody is likely functional by immunoprecipitation.

Description
Anti-Myosin pS19/pS20 antibody is directed against the regulatory light chain of smooth and non-muscle myosin. This antiserum is phosphospecific and detects monophosphorylated and diphosphorylated forms of the protein. Reactivity with non-phosphorylated myosin light chain is less than 1% by ELISA. Cross reactivity is expected with myosin light chain from human and mouse. Reactivity with the protein from other species has not been determined. However, the sequence of the immunogen is nearly identical in mammalian and avian species. BLAST search analysis was used to determine that the smooth and non-muscle forms of myosin regulatory light chain have identical sequences. Cross reactivity is expected.
Immunogen
Human Myosin Light Chain phospho peptide corresponding to a region near the amino terminus of the human smooth/non-muscle form of myosin regulatory light chain conjugated to Keyhole Limpet Hemocyanin (KLH).
