Handling

Format: Liquid

Buffer: PBS, pH 7.4, containing 30 % glycerol, and 0.02 % sodium azide

Preservative: Sodium azide

Precaution of Use: WARNING: Reagents contain sodium azide. Sodium azide is very toxic if ingested or inhaled. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing. Wear eye or face protection when handling. If skin or eye contact occurs, wash with copious amounts of water. If ingested or inhaled, contact a physician immediately. Sodium azide yields toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide-containing compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in lead or copper plumbing.

Storage: 4 °C/-20 °C

Storage Comment: The antibody is stable for 2-3 weeks if stored at 2-8°C. For long term storage, aliquot and store at -20°C or below. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing cycles.

Background: Akt, also known as protein kinase B (PKB), a serine/ threonine kinase, is a critical enzyme in several signal transduction pathways involved in cell proliferation, apoptosis, angiogenesis, and diabetes. Akt is activated following its phosphorylation at two regulatory residues. Phosphorylation of threonine on the kinase domain, catalyzed by PDK1, is essential for Akt activation. Akt activity is augmented approximately ten fold by phosphorylation at the serine on the hydrophobic motif by PDK2. Phosphorylation of Thr308 and Ser473 activates Akt alpha. Phosphorylation at Thr309 and Ser474 on Akt beta1 and beta2, and on Thr305 on Akt gamma results in their activation. Akt promotes cell survival by inhibiting apoptosis by phosphorylating and inactivating several targets, including bad, forkhead transcription factors, c-Raf and caspase-9. The activation of Akt is negatively regulated by PTEN, a PIP3-specific phosphatase, and SHIP, a SH2-domain containing inositol 5-phosphatase.Rabbit Anti-Akt (Phospho-Ser473) Polyclonal Antibody is developed in rabbit using a synthetic phosphopeptide corresponding to residues surrounding S473 of human, rat, and mouse Akt alpha, also known as Protein Kinase B alpha (PKBalpha), Akt1, and RACalpha. In addition, this phosphopeptide is identical to the sequence surrounding S474 of human, rat, and mouse Akt beta (Akt2) and S472 of human and mouse Akt gamma (Akt3).
