Specifications

Product Data

• Clone Name: 18F3.H11
• Applications: ELISA, FC, IHC, WB
• Recommended Dilution: WB: 1:500 - 1:3,000
  IHC: 20 µg/ml
  FC: User Optimized
  ELISA: 1:20,000
• Reactivities: Human, Mouse
• Host: Mouse
• Isotype: IgG1, kappa
• Clonality: Monoclonal
• Immunogen: Akt phospho T308 Antibody was produced by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding T308 of human AKT1 protein.
• Specificity: Anti-AKT pT308 antibody was purified from concentrated tissue culture supernate by Protein A chromatography. This antibody is specific for human and mouse AKT protein phosphorylated at T308. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest cross-reactivity with AKT pT308 from most vertebrate species sources based on 100% homology with the immunizing sequence. Cross-reactivity with AKT from other sources has not been determined. Cross-reactivity with AKT2 and AKT3 will likely occur.
• Formulation: 0.02 M Potassium Phosphate, 0.15 M Sodium Chloride, pH 7.2
• Concentration: 1.0 mg/mL
• Conjugation: Unconjugated

• Background: AKT is a component of the PI-3 kinase pathway and is activated by phosphorylation at Ser 473 and Thr 308. AKT is a cytoplasmic protein also known as AKT1, Protein Kinase B (PKB) and rac (related to A and C kinases). AKT is a key regulator of many signal transduction pathways. AKT Exhibits tight control over cell proliferation and cell viability. Overexpression or inappropriate activation of AKT is noted in many types of cancer. AKT mediates many of the downstream events of PI 3-kinase (a lipid kinase activated by growth factors, cytokines and insulin). PI 3-kinase recruits AKT to the membrane, where it is activated by PDK1 phosphorylation. Once phosphorylated, AKT dissociates from the membrane and phosphorylates targets in the cytoplasm and the cell nucleus. AKT has two main roles: (i) inhibition of apoptosis; (ii) promotion of proliferation.
• Synonyms: mouse anti-AKT pT308 Antibody, RAC-PK-alpha, Protein kinase B, PKB, C-AKT, RAC-alpha serine/threonine-protein kinase, Proto-oncogene c-Akt, AKT1, AKT 1, AKT-1
• Note: Anti-AKT Phospho T308 monoclonal antibody is tested in ELISA, immunohistochemistry, immunoprecipitation and western blotting. Expect a band approximately 56 kDa in size corresponding to phosphorylated AKT protein by western blotting in the appropriate cell lysate or extract. This phospho-specific monoclonal antibody reacts with human and mouse AKT pT308 and shows minimal reactivity by ELISA against the non-phosphorylated form of the immunizing peptide. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. Use formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections for immunohistochemistry. No pre-treatment of sample is required.
