Quick Overview for MEK1 antibody (pSer221) (ABIN362167)

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

Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat

Host: Rabbit

Clonality: Polyclonal

Conjugate: This MEK1 antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Western Blotting (WB), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Immunofluorescence (IF)

Product Details anti-MEK1 Antibody

Binding Specificity: pSer221

Specificity: The antibody detects endogenous level of MEK1 only when phosphorylated at serine 221.

Purification: The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography usingepitope-specific phosphopeptide. The antibody against non-phosphopeptide was removedby chromatogramphy using non-phosphopeptide corresponding to the phosphorylation site.

Immunogen: Peptide sequence around phosphorylation site of pSer221 (A-N-S (p) -F-V) derived from Human MEK1. Antibodies were produced by immunizing rabbits with synthetic phosphopeptide and KLH conjugates.

Isotype: IgG
