It is with great pride and immense pleasure that we introduce the Creative Bioarray QualiStem® Alkaline Phosphatase Live Staining Kit which provides a fast, simple and sensitive method for AP detection without fixing the cells. The reagent is nontoxic to the cells and the fluorescent signal will be discharged from the cells by exocytosis completely within two hours after removal of the staining solution, allowing the cell to be used for follow-up studies
Details
Protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) is an enzyme that removes phosphate groups covalently attached to tyrosine residues in proteins. This ubiquitously expressed enzyme is anchored in the endoplasmic reticulum by its C-terminal end and has its catalytic regions exposed to the cytosol. PTP1B will dephosphorylate a wide variety of phosphoproteins, such as receptors for the growth factors insulin and epidermal growth factor (EGF), c-Src and beta-catenin. Of particular interest is the observation that PTP1B knock-out mice are resistant to high-caloric intake-induced obesity and have exaggerated insulin responses, suggesting that PTP1B may play an important role in regulating growth factor responsiveness.
