    Protocol

    Specificity / Sensitivity

    Phospho-TWIST1 (Ser68) (E8I6K) Rabbit mAb recognizes endogenous levels of TWIST1 protein only when phosphorylated at Ser68.

    Species Reactivity:

    Human

    The antigen sequence used to produce this antibody shares 100% sequence homology with the species listed here, but reactivity has not been tested or confirmed to work by CST. Use of this product with these species is not covered under our Product Performance Guarantee.

    Species predicted to react based on 100% sequence homology:

    Mouse, Rat

    Source / Purification

    Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic phosphopeptide corresponding to residues surrounding Ser68 of human phospho-TWIST1 protein.

    Background

    TWIST1 is a basic helix-loop-helix (BHLH) transcription factor that functions as a master regulator of embryonic morphogenesis and plays essential roles in mesenchymal differentiation and osteogenic determination (1-3). Mutations affecting the BHLH domain of the TWIST1 gene have been associated with Saethre-Chotzen syndrome (SCS), an autosomal dominant craniosynostosis disorder causing craniofacial and limb abnormalities (4,5). TWIST1 is upregulated in various human tumors and may play a role in epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and metastasis (6,7). Upregulation of TWIST1 may contribute to resistance to taxol and microtubule-regulating drugs in tumors (8).

    Serine 68 was identified as a major phosphorylation site of TWIST1 and shown to be regulated by mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) to ultimately stabilize the protein and promote invasiveness in breast cancer cells (9).
