STK35 associates with the PDZ-LIM protein CLP36 through the LIM domain and undergoes autophosphorylation in vitro. STK35 localizes predominantly to the nucleus; however, cotransfection of STK35 with CLP36 demonstrated redistribution of STK35 to the cytoplasm and into actin stress fibers, where it colocalizes with CLP36. The presence of STK35 disrupted the periodic staining pattern of CLP36 in these fibers. It is suggested that CLP36 specifically targets STK35 to actin stress fibers and that STK35 may represent a regulator of the actomyosin cytoskeleton in nonmuscle cells.
Applications:
Suitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot. Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution:
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Storage and Stability:
May be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, add sterile glycerol (40-50%), aliquot and store at -20 degrees C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20 degrees C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
