Product Type Specific: Protein kinase pan-specific antibody

Antibody Code: NK285-1

Antibody Target Type: Pan-specific

Protein UniProt: Q00537

Protein SigNET: Q00537

Antibody Type: Polyclonal

Antibody Host Species: Rabbit

Antibody Immunogen Source: Human PCTK2 (PCTAIRE2, CDK17) sequence peptide Cat. No.: PE-01BEJ85
Antibody Immunogen Sequence: CGSQTIDESLSELAEQMTIE

Antibody Immunogen Description: Corresponds to amino acid residues G14 to E32; Post-N-terminus

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: 1 mg/ml

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

Storage Conditions: For long term storage, keep frozen at -40°C or lower. Stock solution can be kept at +4°C for more than 3 months. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Product Use: Western blotting | Antibody microarray

Antibody Dilution Recommended: 2 µg/ml for immunoblotting

Antibody Potency: Very weak immunoreactivity of a target-sized protein by Western blotting in mouse testes.

Antibody Species Reactivity: Human
Antibody Positive Control: The observed molecular mass of the processed target protein on SDS-PAGE gels is reported to be around 55-65 kDa.

Antibody Specificity: High

Antibody Cross Reactivity: No significant cross-reactivities detected in various human cancer cell lines, including A431, HEK-293, HeLa, HepG2, Jurkat and MCF7 cells, except for medium ~75 and ~30 kDa proteins. Strong ~ 30 kDa cross-reactive protein was also detected in mouse thymus as well as a weaker ~48 kDa protein.

Scientific Background: PCTK2 (PCTAIRE2, CDK17) is a protein-serine/threonine kinase of the CMGC group and CDK family. It functions in terminally differentiated neurons. It is also identified to be associated with circulating phospholipid and sphingolipid concentrations. This kinase likely phosphorylates histone H1. Insertional mutagenesis studies in mice support a role for PCTK2 in mouse cancer oncogenesis.
