specificity :
This item is specific for MEK 1, also known as MAP2K1, when phosphorylated at threonine 386. MEK 1 is an integral component of the MAP kinase cascade that regulates cell growth and differentiation, and may also play a role in brain synaptic plasticity. MEK 1 may be phosphorylated by MAP kinase at Thr292 or Thr38.
form :
Purified. Purified IgG - liquid
storage stability :
Store at 4 degree C or at -20 degree C if preferred. Storage in frost-free freezers is not recommended. This product should be stored undiluted. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing as this may denature the antibody. Should this product contain a precipitate we recommend microcentrifugation before use. Shelf Life: 12 months from date of despatch.
tested application :
Western Blot (WB)*
app notes :
Western Blot: This item detects a band of approximately 45kDa in human T47D lysates. Western Blotting: Maximum Dilution: 1/1000; Application Note: For the detection of phosphoproteins, serine phosphatase inhibitors such as 10mM Sodium Fluoride should be added to the sample buffer. Milk or other casein-based blocking solutions are not recommended as casein is a phosphoprotein and its use can result in high background.
other info1 :
Perservative Stabilisers: 0.09% Sodium Azide. 0.01% Bovine Serum Albumin. 50% Glycerol
other info2 :
Immunogen: Synthetic phosphopeptide corresponding to an amino acid sequence within human MEK 1 which includes phosphorylated Thr386. Buffer Solution: 10mM HEPES pH7.5. Antiserum Preparation: Antisera to phosphorylated MEK 1 were raised by repeated immunisations of rabbits with highly purified antigen. Purified IgG prepared by affinity chromatography. Target Species: Human

ncbi summary :
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the dual specificity protein kinase family, which acts as a mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase kinase. MAP kinases, also known as extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERKs), act as an integration point for multiple biochemical signals. This protein kinase lies upstream of MAP kinases and stimulates the enzymatic activity of MAP kinases upon wide variety of extra- and intracellular signals. As an essential component of MAP kinase signal transduction pathway, this kinase is involved in many cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, transcription regulation and development.
