MEK1 antibody (Ser221)

Catalog No. ABIN197388

Product Details anti-MEK1 Antibody

Target: MEK1 (MAP2K1) (Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase Kinase 1 (MAP2K1))

Binding Specificity: Ser221

Reactivity: Human, Mouse

Host: Rabbit

Clonality: Polyclonal

Conjugate: This MEK1 antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Western Blotting (WB), Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin-embedded Sections) (IHC (p))

Specificity: The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen. MEK1 antibody AP02693PU detects endogenous levels of total MEK1 protein.

Purification: Immunoaffinity chromatography.

Immunogen: The antiserum was produced against synthesized non-phosphopeptide derived from human MEK1 around the phosphorylation site of serine 221 (A-N-Sp-F-V).

Application Details

Application Notes: Suitable for use in in Western blot (1: 500-1: 1000) and Immunohistochemistry (1: 50-1: 100).
Other applications not tested.
Optimal dilutions are dependent on conditions and should be determined by the user.

Restrictions: For Research Use only

Background: MEK1 (Mitogen activated protein kinase kinase 1) catalyzes the concomitant phosphorylation of a threonine and a tyrosine residue in a Thr-Glu-Tyr sequence located in MAP kinases. MEK1 activates ERK1 and ERK2 MAP kinases. MEK1 is activated by dual phosphorylation, which occurs on serine 218 and 222, in the activation loop of the MEK. Threonine 292 of MEK1 is phosphorylated by ERK 2, which serves as a negative feedback loop by suppressing activation of MEK1.Synonyms: Dual specificity mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 1, ERK activator kinase 1, MAP kinase kinase 1, MAPK/ERK kinase 1, MAPKK 1, MEK1, PRKMK1
