Antibody Immunogen Description: Corresponds to amino acid residues S1000 to T1006; in the region between the Transmembrane domain and the protein kinase catalytic domain.Y1003 phosphorylation stimulates phosphotransferase activity and induces interaction with CBL, PTP1B and PTPN2. Phosphorylation regulates cell growth, receptor desensitization, protein stabililzation, and ubquitination. This is one of the major in vivo phosphorylation sites in Met (≥370 reports from high throughput mass spectrometry studies recorded in PhosphoSitePlus). Met is known to be phosphorylated at this site in vitro by Met.
Production Method: The immunizing peptide was produced by solid phase synthesis on a multipep peptide synthesizer and purified by reverse-phase hplc chromatography. Purity was assessed by analytical hplc and the amino acid sequence confirmed by mass spectrometry analysis. This peptide was coupled to KLH prior to immunization into rabbits. New Zealand White rabbits were subcutaneously injected with KLH-coupled immunizing peptide every 4 weeks for 4 months. The sera from these animals was applied onto an agarose column to which the immunogen peptide was thio-linked. Antibody was eluted from the column with 0.1 M glycine, pH 2.5. Subsequently, the antibody solution was neutralized to pH 7.0 with saturated Tris.This antibody was also subject to negative purification over phosphotyrosine-agarose.
Antibody Modification: Unconjugated. Contact KInexus if you are interest in having the antibody biotinylated or coupled with fluorescent dyes.

Scientific Background: Met (HGFR) is a protein-tyrosine kinase of the TK group and Met family. Met is produced as a single-chain precursor, then cleaved to form a disulfide-linked heterodimer: a 50 kDa extracellular alpha subunit, and 145 kDa beta subunit with a Sema domain, a PSI domain, and an intracellular region containing a juxtamembrane domain, a tyrosine kinase domain, and a docking site. It is activated by binding hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) to the Sema domain, and this induces dimerization and autophosphorylation. Phosphorylation of Tyr-1003 increases phosphotransferase activity and induces interaction with Cbl. Phosphorylation of Tyr-1230 and Tyr-1235 increases phosphotransferase activity. Phosphorylation of Tyr-1234 increases phosphotransferase activity and induces interaction with Grb2. Phosphorylation of S985 inhibits phosphotransferase activity. Phosphorylation of Tyr-1349 inhibits phosphotransferase activity, but induces interaction with FAK, Gab1, Grb2, Met, PIK3R1, PLCG1 and Src. Met mediates scattering, proliferation, survival, and morphogenesis of cells. Some immediate regulators that bind to Met after activation with HGF include PLCG1, PIK3R1, GRB2, SRC, STAT3 or the adapter GAB1. Met is a known oncoprotein. Cancer-related mutations in human tumours point to a gain of function of the protein kinase. Overexpression, amplification, or mutation drives various cancers, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), gastric cancer, and kidney cancer. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) also occurs with higher risk in those that have chronic HCV (hepatitis C virus) or HBV (hepatitis B virus) infection, or aflatoxin exposure in diet, or alcohol-induced cirrhosis, or another form of cirrhosis.
