Product Type Specific: Protein kinase pan-specific antibody

Antibody Code: NK087-2

Antibody Target Type: Pan-specific

Protein UniProt: Q9H2K8

Protein SigNET: Q9H2K8

Antibody Type: Polyclonal

Antibody Host Species: Rabbit

Antibody Immunogen Source: Human TAOK3 (JIK, TAO3) sequence peptide Cat. No.: PE-01BFJ

Antibody Immunogen Sequence: CSEHGTSLNREMDSLGSNHS
Antibody Immunogen Description: Corresponds to amino acid residues S331 to S349; After catalytic domain

Production Method: The immunizing peptide was produced by solid phase synthesis on a multipep peptide synthesizer and purified by reverse-phase hplc chromatography. Purity was assessed by analytical hplc and the amino acid sequence confirmed by mass spectrometry analysis. This peptide was coupled to KLH prior to immunization into rabbits. New Zealand White rabbits were subcutaneously injected with KLH-coupled immunizing peptide every 4 weeks for 4 months. The sera from these animals was applied onto an agarose column to which the immunogen peptide was thio-linked. Antibody was eluted from the column with 0.1 M glycine, pH 2.5. Subsequently, the antibody solution was neutralized to pH 7.0 with saturated Tris.

Antibody Modification: Unconjugated. Contact KInexus if you are interest in having the antibody biotinylated or coupled with fluorescent dyes.
Antibody Concentration: 0.43 mg/ml

Storage Buffer: Phosphate buffered saline pH 7.4, 0.05% Thimerasol

Scientific Background: TAO3 (MAP3K18, TAOK3) is a protein-serine/threonine kinase of the STE group and STE20 family. It is a cutaneous T-cell lymphoma-associated antigen. It also functions in the G2-M transition in response to DNA damage. Insertional mutagenesis studies in mice support a role for this protein kinase in mouse cancer oncogenesis.
