SPECIFICATIONS
ClonalityPolyclonal
HostRabbit
ConjugationUnconjugated
IsotypeIgG
ImmunogenPhospho-ephexin-1 (Tyr-87) synthetic peptide (coupled to carrier protein) corresponds to amino acids surrounding tyrosine 87 in mouse ephexin-1. This sequence has significant homology to the conserved region in human and rat ephexin-1.

| Immunogen | Phospho-ephexin-1 (Tyr-87) synthetic peptide (coupled to carrier protein) corresponds to amino acids surrounding tyrosine 87 in mouse ephexin-1. This sequence has significant homology to the conserved region in human and rat ephexin-1. |
| Specificity | The antibody detects an 80 kDa* band corresponding to ephexin-1 in Western blots of human A431 treated with pervanadate. This band is removed by alkaline phosphatase treatment. |
Additional Info
| Tissue Specificity | Highly expressed in brain and to a lower extent in eye. |
| Post Translational Modifications | Src-dependent phosphorylation at Tyr-177 upon EPHA4 activation increases the guanine exchange factor activity toward RHOA. Phosphorylation by CDK5 upon EPHA4 activation by EFNA1 may regulate dendritic spine morphogenesis. |
| Function | Acts as a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) which differentially activates the GTPases RHOA, RAC1 and CDC42. Plays a role in axon guidance regulating ephrin-induced growth cone collapse and dendritic spine morphogenesis. Upon activation by ephrin through EPHA4, the GEF activity switches toward RHOA resulting in its activation. Activated RHOA promotes cone retraction at the expense of RAC1- and CDC42-stimulated growth cone extension. |
