Quick Overview for PERK antibody (pThr981) (ABIN7138887)

Target: PERK (EIF2AK3) (Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Factor 2-alpha Kinase 3 (EIF2AK3))

Reactivity: Human

Host: Rabbit

Clonality: Polyclonal

Conjugate: This PERK antibody is un-conjugated

Product Details anti-PERK Antibody

Binding Specificity: pThr981

Purpose: Phospho-EIF2AK3 (Thr981) Antibody

Cross-Reactivity: Mouse

Purification: Antibodies were produced by immunizing rabbits with synthetic phosphopeptide and KLH conjugates. Antibodies were purified by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific phosphopeptide. Non-phospho specific antibodies were removed by chromatogramphy usi

Immunogen: Peptide sequence around phosphorylation site of threonine 981(A-R-H(p)-T-G) derived from Human PEK/PERK.

Isotype: IgG

Target Details for PERK

Target: PERK (EIF2AK3) (Eukaryotic Translation Initiation Factor 2-alpha Kinase 3 (EIF2AK3))

Alternative Name: EIF2AK3

Background:

Background:

Phosphorylates the alpha subunit of eukaryotic translation-initiation factor 2 (EIF2), leading to its inactivation and thus to a rapid reduction of translational initiation and repression of global protein synthesis. Serves as a critical effector of unfolded protein response (UPR)-induced G1 growth arrest due to the loss of cyclin-D1 (CCND1)
