Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB) is a ubiquitous transcription factor and an essential mediator of gene expression during activation of immune and inflammatory responses.
NF-kB mediates the expression of a great variety of genes in response to extracellular stimuli.
NF-kB is associated with IkB proteins in the cell cytoplasm, which inhibit NF-kB activity.
IkB is phosphorylated by IkB kinase (IKK) complex that contains IKKa, IKKb, and IKKg.
A novel molecule in the IKK complex was recently identified and designated IKKe/IKK-i (1,2).
IKKe is required for the activation of NF-kB by PMA and T cell receptors but not by TNFa and IL-1 (1).
IKKe/IKK-i message is expressed in a variety of tissues and is inducible by TNFa, IL-1, and LPS (2).
Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot.
Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 0.5-1ug/ml; Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Positive Control: Jurkat whole cell lysate
Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only.
For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot and add glycerol (40-50%).
Freeze at -20°C.
Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20°C.
For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
