Mouse monoclonal antibody raised against synthetic phosphopeptide of AKT1.
Immunogen:
Synthetic phosphopeptide corresponding to residues surrounding T308 of human AKT1.
Host:
Mouse
Theoretical MW (kDa):
56
Reactivity:
Human, Mouse
Specificity:
This antibody is specific for human and mouse AKT protein phosphorylated at T308. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest cross-reactivity with AKT pT308 from most vertebrate species sources based on 100% homology with the immunizing sequence. Cross-reactivity with AKT from other sources has not been determined. Cross-reactivity with AKT2 and AKT3 will likely occur.
Form:
Liquid
Purification:
Protein A purification
Concentration:
1.48 mg/mL
Recommend Usage:
ELISA (1:20000) Western Blot (1:500-1:3000) Immunohistochemistry (20 ug/mL) The optimal working dilution should be determined by the end user.
Storage Buffer:
In 20 mM KH2PO4, 150 mM NaCl, pH 7.2 (0.01% sodium azide)
Storage Instruction:
Store at 4°C. For long term storage store at -20°C. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
Note:

Applications
Western Blot (Cell lysate)
Western blot analysis of unstimulated (Lane 1) and PDGF stimulated (Lane 2) NIH/3T3 cell lysates with AKT1 (phospho T308) monoclonal antibody, clone 18F3.H11 (Cat # MAB10260) at 1:4000 dilution.
The serine-threonine protein kinase encoded by the AKT1 gene is catalytically inactive in serum-starved primary and immortalized fibroblasts. AKT1 and the related AKT2 are activated by platelet-derived growth factor. The activation is rapid and specific, and it is abrogated by mutations in the pleckstrin homology domain of AKT1. It was shown that the activation occurs through phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. In the developing nervous system AKT is a critical mediator of growth factor-induced neuronal survival. Survival factors can suppress apoptosis in a transcription-independent manner by activating the serine/threonine kinase AKT1, which then phosphorylates and inactivates components of the apoptotic machinery. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq
