Description: Centaurin beta 1 and Centaurin beta 2 are recruited to platelet-derived growth factor-induced dorsal membrane ruffles in NIH 3T3 mouse fibroblasts, and overexpression inhibited ruffle formation. In vitro, Centaurin beta 1 and Centaurin beta 2 preferred ARF6 as substrate rather than ARF1 or ARF5, and the GAP activity of both Centaurins was dependent upon phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2). The isolated PH domain of mouse Centaurin beta 2 exhibits moderate affinity for PtdIns(3,5)P2, but it does not bind any other phosphoinositides tested, including PtdIns(4,5)P2. Mutation of a highly conserved arginine in both Centaurins result in lack of ARF-GAP activity. Overexpression in HeLa cells of either Centaurin blocks the formation of ARF6-dependent protrusions. Both Centaurins are also recruited to peripheral, tubular membranes, where activation of ARF6 occurs and allows membrane recycling back to the plasma membrane. Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA, Western Blot and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: ELISA: 1:32,000 Western Blot: 1:32,000 & 1-3ug/ml Immunohistochemistry (Formalin fixed paraffin embedded): 5ug/ml Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. |
