Domain Information: Ank repeat; Eukaryotic protein kinase domain; Serine/Threonine protein kinases, catalytic domain; Tyrosine kinase, catalytic domain

Gene Ontology Terms: cell-cell matrix adhesion; protein serine/threonine kinase; peripheral plasma membrane protein; integrin receptor signal signalling pathway

Peptide ELISA: antibody detection limit dilution >1:32,000. Western Blot: Approx 55kD band observed in A431 lysates (predicted MW of 52kD according to NP_004508). Recommended for use at 0.5-2ug/ml.

Staining (0.5ug/ml) of A431 lysate (RIPA buffer, 35ug total protein per lane). Primary incubated for 1 hour. Detected by western blot using chemiluminescence. Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.

May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. For long-term storage and to avoid repeated freezing and thawing, aliquot and store 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.

Corresponding peptide is available for Peptide Blocking studies. See I5005-01B-P. Antibody is typically 0.5mg/ml and peptide is supplied as a 100ul pellet. When peptide is reconstituted in 200ul water, the concentration would also be 0.5mg/ml. To start, the best ratio would be 1:1 (molar excess of peptide relative to antibody when identical volumes are mixed). Mix equal volumes of peptide and antibody at the required dilution and leave at ambient temperature. It is best is to have two identical blots to be incubated with equal amount of antibody, but one with the antibody pre-adsorbed to the peptide for 20min. Then incubate and develop the two blots in parallel.
