Host Species & Isotype: Rabbit IgG ( ).
Target Specificity: Recognizes STAT1α phosphorylated at Ser727; does not detect STAT1β (lacking Ser727) .
Molecular Weight: Detects ~84 kDa (observed) / 83 kDa (calculated) STAT1 in humans .
Cross-Reactivity: Confirmed in humans, mice, rats, and monkeys ( ); cited reactivity includes human and mouse ( ).
Ser727 phosphorylation enhances STAT1’s transcriptional activity and nuclear localization .
Stress-induced phosphorylation (e.g., LPS, UV, TNF-α) is mediated by p38 MAPK, distinct from IFN-γ-induced Tyr701 phosphorylation .
| Application | Dilution Range | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Western Blot (WB) | 1:500 – 1:2000 | |
| Immunofluorescence (IF/ICC) | 1:200 – 1:800 | |
| Chromatin IP | 1:50 |
Detects STAT1 activation in IFN-γ-treated HeLa cells (WB) and IFN-α-treated HeLa cells (IF/ICC) .
Enhances STAT1-dependent transcription when combined with LPS in macrophages .
Immune Response: Integrates signals from IFN-γ, IFN-α/β, EGF, and IL-6 to regulate antimicrobial and inflammatory gene expression .
Stress Signaling: Mediates responses to UV irradiation, TNF-α, and bacterial LPS via p38 MAPK-dependent Ser727 phosphorylation .
LPS or UV stress synergizes with IFN-γ to amplify STAT1 transcriptional activity by increasing Ser727 phosphorylation .
In macrophages, Ser727 phosphorylation occurs independently of Tyr701, enabling STAT1 to integrate diverse inflammatory signals .
WB: Use RIPA buffer for lysate preparation; optimize blocking with 5% BSA .
IF/ICC: Fix cells with 4% paraformaldehyde; permeabilize with 0.1% Triton X-100 .
ChIP: Use 10 μg chromatin per IP with SimpleChIP® kits for optimal results .
Cancer: STAT1 Ser727 phosphorylation correlates with ferroptosis in gliomas and hepatocellular carcinoma .
Viral Infections: Regulates antiviral responses during classical swine fever virus replication .
Autoimmunity: Dysregulated STAT1 phosphorylation linked to lupus nephritis via RhoA GTPase signaling .
