This affinity purified antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide corresponding to C-Terminal region near aa 450-475 (of 481) of human AKT2 conjugated to Keyhole Limpet Hemocyanin (KLH) .

This affinity purified antibody is directed against human AKT2. The antibody detects both unphosphorylated and phosphorylated forms of the protein. The product was affinity purified from monospecific antiserum by immunoaffinity purification. Cross reactivity with AKT2 from other species has not been determined, however, the sequence of the immunogen shows 85% identity to mouse and 92% identity with rat, therefore, cross reactivity is expected.

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 antibody was tested by ELISA and immunoblotting and was found to be reactive with both unphosphorylated and phosphorylated AKT2 in a lysate of HEK293 cells. Although not tested, this antibody is likely functional in immunohistochemistry and immunoprecipitation. This product has been assayed by immunoblot against a HEK293 cell lysate and is reactive at a 1:1,000 dilution showing a band at approximately 60 kDa. A working dilution of 1:4,000 to 1:16,000 is suggested for this product in a standard capture ELISA using TMB (3,3',5,5'-Tetramethylbenizidine) as a substrate for 30 minutes at room temperature against 0.1 ug of the immunizing peptide. Researchers should determine optimal titers for other applications.
