CREB is a transcription factor protein that binds the cAMP response element (CRE), thereby stimulating transcription of this sequence. CREB plays a role in propagating numerous extracellular signals to the nuclues (1-3). CREB is activated by phosphorylation at the Ser133 position by various signaling pathways, and some of the kinases involved in phosphorylating CREB at Ser133 are p90RSK, MSK, CaMKIV and MAPKAPK-2 (1-3).

Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Storage and Stability:
May be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot Freeze at -20 degrees C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20 degrees C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
