DUSP3 Antibody

Western blot: 0.5-1ug/ml

The stated application concentrations are suggested starting amounts. Titration of the DUSP3 antibody may be required due to differences in protocols and secondary/substrate sensitivity.

Dual-specificity phosphatase 3, also called VHR, is a member of the dual specificity protein phosphatase subfamily. DUSPs constitute a large heterogeneous subgroup of the type I cysteine-based protein-tyrosine phosphatase superfamily. DUSPs are characterized by their ability to dephosphorylate both tyrosine and serine/threonine residues. DUSP3 contains the consensus DUSP C-terminal catalytic domain but lacks the N-terminal CH2 domain found in the MKP(mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphatase) class of DUSPs. The DUSP3 gene is mapped on 17q21.31. Confocal microscopy demonstrated that phosphorylated VHR accumulated at the immune synapse between the T cell and the antigen-presenting cell in the presence of antigen. Tyrosine phosphorylation of VHR affects protein-protein interaction, subcellular location, or substrate targeting, given that tyr138 is located on the opposite side of the VHR catalytic center.

An amino acid sequence from the C-terminus of human DUSP3(RQNREIGPNDGFLAQLC) was used as the immunogen for this DUSP3 antibody (100% homologous in human, mouse and rat).

This DUSP3 antibody is available for research use only.
