AKT1 Antibody

Rabbit anti-AKT pS473 Antibody, AKT1 phospho S473, RAC-PK-alpha, Protein kinase B, PKB, C-AKT, RAC-alpha serine/threonine-protein kinase, Proto-oncogene c-Akt, AKT1, AKT 1, AKT-1

Rabbit Anti-AKTpS473 Antibody was prepared by repeated immunizations in rabbits with a synthetic peptide corresponding to a C-terminus region near phospho Serine 473 of the human, mouse, rat and chicken AKT proteins conjugated to KLH.

This product was prepared from monospecific antiserum by immunoaffinity chromatography using a phospho peptide coupled to agarose beads followed by solid phase adsorption (s) against a non-phospho peptide and non-specific peptide to remove any unwanted reactivities. Assay by immunoelectrophoresis resulted in a single precipitin arc against anti-Rabbit Serum. This antibody is specific for phosphorylated human AKTpS473. Minimal reactivity occurs against non-phosphorylated AKT. Reactivity against AKT from other species may occur but has not yet been tested.

Store vial at -20° C prior to opening. Aliquot contents and freeze at -20° C or below for extended storage. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing. Centrifuge product if not completely clear after standing at room temperature. This product is stable for several weeks at 4° C as an undiluted liquid. Dilute only prior to immediate use.

This AKT antibody is phospho specific for pS473 and is tested in ELISA, western blotting, immunohistochemistry (formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections), and immunofluorescence. By immunoblot a single band of the expected apparent molecular weight ~56kDa is observed. For immunohistochemistry no pre-treatment of sample is required.
