Target Alias: Kinase Pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 2; PDK2; Pyruvate dehydrogenase [lipoamide] kinase isozyme 2, mitochondrial precursor

Product Type Specific: Protein kinase pan-specific antibody

Antibody Code: NN180-2

Antibody Target Type: Pan-specific

Protein UniProt: Q15119

Protein SigNET: Q15119

Antibody Type: Polyclonal

Antibody Host Species: Rabbit

Antibody Immunogen Source: Human PDK2 (PDHK2) sequence peptide Cat. No.: PE-01BAB85

Antibody Immunogen Sequence: CDKYYMASPDLEIQEI

Antibody Immunogen Description: Corresponds to amino acid residues C212 to I227

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.
