Human/Mouse/Rat Akt2 Antibody Summary

Species Reactivity

Human, Mouse, Rat

Specificity

Detects human, mouse, and rat Akt2. Detects human Akt2 in direct ELISAs and endogenous Akt2 in Western blots. In direct ELISAs and Western blots, no cross-reactivity with recombinant human (rh) Akt1 or rhAkt3 is observed.

Detection of Human/Mouse/Rat Akt2 by Western Blot. Western blot shows lysates of MDA-MB-468 human breast cancer cell line and Huh-7 human hepatoma cell line. PVDF membrane was probed with 2 µg/mL Mouse Anti-Human/Mouse/Rat Akt2 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB2315) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF007). For additional reference, Recombinant Human Active Akt1 (Catalog # 1775-KS), recombinant human Akt2, and recombinant human Akt3 (2 ng/lane) were included. A specific band for Akt2 was detected at approximately 60 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 3.

Background: Akt2

The serine/threonine kinase Akt, also known as protein kinase B (PKB), is a central regulator of such diverse cellular processes as glucose uptake, cell cycle progression, and apoptosis. In mammals, three highly homologous members define the Akt family: Akt1 (PKB alpha ), Akt2 (PKB beta ), and Akt3 (PKB gamma ). Akt2 is expressed predominantly in insulin target tissues such as liver, skeletal muscle, and fat.
