40S ribosomal protein S6 (also known as RPS6) is a ~31kD substrate of p70 S6 kinase (p70S6K) and a major component of translational machinery involved in protein synthesis, cell growth, proliferation, and metabolism. RPS6 undergoes phosphorylation on multiple serines in the carboxyl terminal region in the order 236-->235-->240-->244-->247, due to the positions of these amino acid residues on the alpha-helix. Hyperphosphorylation of RPS6 stimulates protein synthesis that mediates progression through the cell cycle.

Suitable for use in FLISA and Western Blot. Other applications not tested.

Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
