AKT2 is also known as V-AKT Murine Thymoma Viral Oncogene Homolog 2 antibody, Rac protein kinase beta antibody, PKB beta antibody or PRKBB antibody.
AKT2 is an isoform of the phosphoinositide-dependent serine-threonine protein kinase AKT and is enriched in insulin-responsive tissues and has been implicated in the metabolic actions of the hormone.
AKT2 is a putative oncogene encoding a protein belonging to a subfamily of serine/threonine kinases containing SH2-like (Src homology 2-like) domains.
Furthermore, AKT2 was shown to be amplified and overexpressed in 2 of 8 ovarian carcinoma cell lines and 2 of 15 primary ovarian tumors.
Over-expression of AKT2 contributes to the malignant phenotype of a subset of human ductal pancreatic cancers.
AKT2 is a general protein kinase capable of phophorylating severalknown proteins.
AKT2 mediates many of the downstream events of PI 3-kinase (a lipid kinase activated by growth factors, cytokines and insulin).
PI 3-kinase recruits AKT2 to the membrane, where it is activated by PDK1 phosphorylation.
Once phosphorylated, AKT2 dissociates from the membrane and phosphorylates targets in the cytoplasm and the cell nucleus.
AKT2 has two main roles: inhibition of apoptosis and promotion of proliferation.
Applications:Suitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot.
Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution:Western Blot (HEK293 cell lysate): 1:4000- 1:16,000 (60kD) 1ug AKT2 using TMB Stable Liquid Substrate for HRPO (3,3',5,5'-Tetramethylbenzidine) T6000 or T6005 as a substrate for 30 minutes at RT.
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
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 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.
