This antibody recognizes VASP only, when Ser239 is phosphorylated, a site preferred by cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PKG) but also used by cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA). This antibody does not crossreact with the non-phosphorylated form of VASP nor with unrelated serine-phosphorylated proteins. Therefore, The antibody is able to monitor the phosphorylation state of VASP Serine239 as well as PKA activity.

VASP (vasodilator stimulated phosphoprotein) plays an important role in ANF / NO / cGMP Protein kinase and cAMP / cAMP Protein kinase signalling pathways. VASP is expressed in almost all human and animal cell lines, particularly high concentrations are found in thrombocytes, vascular smooth muscle cells and fibroblasts. In cultured cells VASP is associated with focal contacts, cell-cell-contacts, microfilaments and dynamic membrane regions such as the leading edge. In vitro binding data show that VASP binds to profilin, zyxin, vinculin, and the Listeria spp. surface protein ActA. Functional evidence indicates that VASP is a crucial factor involved in the enhancement of actin filament formatSynonyms: Vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein
