AKT2 antibody (Internal Region)

Catalog No. ABIN1043774

Product Details anti-AKT2 Antibody

Target: AKT2 (V-Akt Murine Thymoma Viral Oncogene Homolog 2 (AKT2))

Binding Specificity: Internal Region

Reactivity: Human

Host: Rat

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This AKT2 antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Western Blotting (WB), ELISA, Immunohistochemistry (IHC)

Specificity: Anti-AKT2 antibody is directed against human AKT2. The antibody detects both unphosphorylated and phosphorylated forms of the protein. Anti-AKT2 was purified from ascites by Protein A chromatography. Cross reactivity with AKT2 from other species has not been determined, however, the sequence of the immunogen shows 88% identity to mouse and 90% identity with rat, therefore, cross reactivity is expected.

Characteristics: AKT2 Antibody detects AKT2 which is a component of the PI-3 kinase pathway and is activated by phosphorylation at Ser 473 and Thr 308. AKT is a cytoplasmic protein also known as Protein Kinase B (PKB) and rac (related to A and C kinases). AKT is a key regulator of many signal transduction pathways. AKT Exhibits tight control over cell proliferation and cell viability. Overexpression or inappropriate activation of AKT is noted in many types of cancer. AKT mediates many of the downstream events of PI 3-kinase (a lipid kinase activated by growth factors, cytokines and insulin). PI 3-kinase recruits AKT to the membrane, where it is activated by PDK1 phosphorylation. Once phosphorylated, AKT dissociates from the membrane and phosphorylates targets in the cytoplasm and the cell nucleus. AKT has two main roles: (i) inhibition of apoptosis, (ii) promotion of proliferation. Anti-AKT2 Antibody is ideal for investigators involved in Cell Signaling, Neuroscience, Signal Transduction research.

Sterility: Sterile filtered

Immunogen: Anti-AKT2 Antibody was produced by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide corresponding to internal residues of human AKT2 protein.
Immunogen Type: Peptide

Clone: 16G11-A7

Isotype: IgG2a kappa

Application Details

Application Notes: Anti-AKT2 Antibody is suitable for ELISA, immunohistochemistry, and western blotting. Expect a band approximately 56 kDa in size corresponding to AKT2 protein by western blotting in the appropriate cell lysate or extract. This monoclonal antibody reacts with human AKT. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. For immunohistochemistry we recommend the use of fresh frozen tissues. Attempts at staining paraffin-embedded formalin fixed tissues were negative. No pre-treatment of sample is required.
