MEK1 (fosfo Thr292) Antilichaam

MEK 1 (MAP Kinase Kinase, also known as MKK) is an integral component of the MAP kinase cascade that regulates cell growth and differentiation and this pathway also plays a key role in synaptic plasticity in brain. Activated MEK 1 acts as a dual specificity kinase phosphorylating both a threonine and a tyrosine residue on MAP kinase. Conversely there also appears to be a feedback phosphorylation of MEK 1 by MAP kinase. The sites on MEK 1 that are phosphorylated by MAP kinase are Thr292 and Thr386.

For long term storage –80˚ C is recommended, but shorter term storage at –20˚ C is also acceptable as aliquots may be taken without freeze/thawing due to the presence of 50% glycerol. Stable for one year.

MEK1 antibody is specific for the 45k MEK 1 phosphorylated at Thr292.

Applications include Dot Blots (DB) and Western Blots (WB) . Suitability for Immunohistochemistry (IHC) has not yet been determined. When internally tested under ideal conditions the working dilutions were 1:1000 for DB and WB.
