Target/Specificity | Synthetic phospho-peptide corresponding to amino acid residues surrounding Ser515 conjugated to KLH. |
Dilution | IHC~~ 1:400 FC~~1:400 WB~~ 1:1000 |
Format | Prepared from rabbit serum by affinity purification via sequential chromatography on phospho- and dephosphopeptide affinity columns. |
Antibody Specificity | Specific for the ~65k Munc-18 protein phosphorylated at Ser515. Immunolabeling is blocked by the phosphopeptide used as antigen but not by the corresponding dephosphopeptide. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 6 months. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | Phospho-Ser515 Munc-18 Antibody is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Shipping | Blue Ice |

Background
Munc-18 ( mammalian homologue of Unc-18) is a protein that is thought to be involved in regulating exocytosis due, at least in part, to it ability to bind syntaxin (Ciufo et al., 2005). Munc18-1 is a neuron-specific member of the Sec1/Munc18 protein family that binds to syntaxin1A and is thought to stabilize the complex (Liu et al., 2004). The function of Munc-18 is thought to be regulated by PKC phosphorylation of Ser515 on the Munc-18 protein (Sassa et al., 1996).
