SpecificityThe specificity of this antibody has been confirmed by WB against the antigen. Human; mouse; rat; yeast
Species ReactivityHuman, Mouse, Rat, Yeast
Immunogen DescriptionSynthetic peptide of 11 residues (HTGFLTEYVAT) conjugated to KLH. This antibody reacts with the epitope containing phosphorylated threonine and tyrosine residues within the regulatory site of active ERK1 and ERK2 (Thr202/Tyr204 for ERK1 and Thr185/Tyr187 for ERK2).
Product DescriptionMouse anti-Extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1 and Extracellular signal-regulated kinase 12 (ERK-1/ERK-2) Monoclonal Antibody (Unconjugated), suitable for WB.
Application(s)WB
Application DetailsWestern Blotting (WB). A concentration of 0.25-0.50 µg/mL is recommended for WB. Human ERK1 has a predicted length of 379 residues and MW of 43 kDa. Human ERK2 has a predicted length of 360 residues and MW of 41 kDa. Biosensis recommends optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Reconstitution InstructionsSpin vial briefly before opening. Reconstitute in 1 mL of sterile-filtered PBS (pH 7.4) to achieve an antibody concentration of 100 µg/mL. Centrifuge to remove any insoluble material.
Storage InstructionsAt least 12 months after purchase at 2-8°C (lyophilized formulations). After reconstitution, aliquot and store at -20°C for a higher stability. Avoid freeze-thaw cycles.
Batch NumberPlease see item label.
Expiration Date12 months after date of receipt (unopened vial).
Scientific BackgroundExtracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK), also known as mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK), is a family with two homologous members; ERK1 (MAPK3) and ERK2 (MAPK1). This antibody reacts with the active forms of these proteins that have specific phosphorylated Threonine and Tyrosine residues within a Thr-Glu-Tyr motif (Thr202/Tyr204 for ERK1 and Thr185/Tyr187 for ERK2).
