Product Overview
Clone CDE-18 is a rabbit monoclonal antibody that recognizes rho-associated protein kinase 1 (gene ROCK1) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot, IHC, ICC/IF, immunoprecipitation and flow cytometry. The predicted molecular weight is 158.2 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 170 kDa.
ROCK1 (Rho-associated protein kinase 1) is a serine/threonine kinase activated by GTP-bound RhoA. It phosphorylates targets such as myosin light chain, the myosin phosphatase subunit MYPT1 and LIM kinases to drive actomyosin contraction, stress fiber formation and cell migration, and ROCK inhibitors such as Y-27632 are standard research tools.

Recommended antigen retrieval: heat-mediated, in TE buffer (pH 9.0); citrate buffer (pH 6.0) can be used instead.
Conditions in the example images (IHC): heat-mediated antigen retrieval in citrate buffer (pH 6).
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide based on the sequence of human ROCK1.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt places rho-associated protein kinase 1 in the cytoplasm, Golgi apparatus membrane, cell projection and cell membrane. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Detected in blood platelets. The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
