Antibody Code: NK108-4

Antibody Target Type: Pan-specific

Protein UniProt: Q9Y2U5

Protein SigNET: Q9Y2U5

Antibody Type: Polyclonal

Antibody Host Species: Rabbit

Antibody Immunogen Source: Human MEKK2 (MAP3K2) sequence peptide Cat. No.: PE-01AXU90
Antibody Immunogen Sequence: CLVINGSTQATNLEP

Antibody Immunogen Description: Corresponds to amino acid residues L119 to P132

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: 0.5 mg/ml

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

Scientific Background: MEKK2 (MAP3K2) is a protein-serine/threonine kinase of the STE group and STE11 family. It is required for cytokine production in cultured mast cells. The protein is one of the kinases that regulate different steps of the caveolar cycle. It activated by phosphorylation on T524. Methylation of the protein increases MAP kinase signalling and promotes Ras-driven carcinomas.
