Product Number:
ab-pn671
Target Full Name: Signal transducer and activator of transcription 5A
Target Alias: Mammary gland factor; MGF; MPF; STA5A; STAT5
Product Type Specific: STAT5A phosphosite-specific antibody
Antibody Code: PN671
Antibody Target Type: Phosphosite-specific
Antibody Phosphosite: Y694
Protein UniProt: P42229
Protein SigNET: STAT5A
Antibody Type: Polyclonal
Antibody Host Species: Rabbit
Antibody Immunogen Source: Synthetic phosphopeptide patterned after human STAT5A
Antibody Immunogen Sequence: CAVDG(pY)VKPQ
Antibody Immunogen Description: Corresponds to amino acid residues A690 to Q698. Y694 phosphorylation stimulates transcriptional activity. This is the major site of in vivo phosphorylation of STAT5A (≥2214 reports from high throughput mass spectrometry studies recorded in PhosphoSitePlus). STAT5A is known to be phosphorylated at this site in vitro by Axl, Btk, Hck, JAK1, JAK2, JAK3, Lck, Lyn, MER (MERTK), Src, and Syk.
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.
Antibody Modification: Unconjugated. Contact KInexus if you are interest in having the antibody biotinylated or coupled with fluorescent dyes.

Scientific Background: STAT5A (Signal transducer and activator of transcription 5A) is a STAT family transcription factor.that acts as a signaling molecule and transcription activator, crucial for mediating responses to and growth factors by regulating gene expression, primarily promoting cell survival and differentiation. It mediates cellular responses to various cytokines (e.g., IL-2, IL-3, Prolactin) that bind to cytokine receptors, and to growth factors (KITLG/SCF, FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3 and FGFR4) that activate receptor-tyrosine kinases (ERBB4). Upon cytokine stimulation, STAT5A is phosphorylated by JAK's on Tyr- 694, forming homo- or heterodimers (typically with STAT5B) that translocate to the nucleus. STAT5A is vital for immune cell function, hematopoietic development, mammary gland development, and lactation. It regulates genes involved in anti-apoptosis (e.g., BCL2L1). It binds to the GAS element and activates PRL-induced transcription. It regulates the expression of milk proteins during lactation. STAT5A shares 96% similarity with its paralog, STAT5B, and both proteins exhibit overlapping functions. STAT5A is implicated in hematological malignancies (leukemia/lymphoma) and, alongside STAT5B, is a target in prostate cancer due to its role in cell proliferation.
