Western Blotting (WB), Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunoprecipitation (IP)
Specificity
This antibody recognises Aurora-A kinase. Clone 35C1 specifically recognises an epitope within the non-catalytic N-terminal domain of Aurora-A. Clone 35C1 does not inhibit Aurora-A kinase activity.
Purification
Affinity chromatography on Protein G
Immunogen
Recombinant Aurora-A. Spleen cells from immunised Balb/c were fused with cells of the SP2/0-Ag14 mouse myeloma cell line.

Aurora-A kinase is a 46 kDa serine/threonine kinase involved in mitotic spindle assembly. Aurora-A is reported to be overexpressed in many epithelial cancers and is thought to play an important role in tumourigenesis.Synonyms: AIK1, ARK1, AURA, AURKA, AURORA2, Aurora/IPL1-related kinase 1, BTAK, Breast tumor-amplified kinase, STK15, STK6, Serine/threonine kinase 15, Serine/threonine-protein kinase 6
