Designing a Western blot for KSR1? The guide has the expected band size, antibodies backed by real blot images, the controls to run alongside, and protocols taken from published papers.
Open the KSR1 Western Blot GuideFacts about Kinase suppressor of Ras 1.
Promotes activation of MAPK1 and/or MAPK3, both in response to EGF and to cAMP. Does not have kinase activity alone.

Cytoplasm. Membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Cell membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Cell projection, ruffle membrane. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane. In unstimulated cells, where the phosphorylated form is bound to a 14-3-3 protein, sequestration in the cytoplasm occurs. Following growth factor treatment, the protein is free for membrane translocation, and it moves from the cytoplasm to the cell periphery.
