Product type 

Primary antibodies

Description 

Rabbit polyclonal to AKT1 (phospho S473)

Immunogen 

Synthetic peptide: CHFPQFSpYSAS conjugated to KLH, corresponding to C terminal amino acids 468-477 of Human AKT.
BLAST 'CHFPQFSpYSAS' with BLAST the sequence with ExPASy or BLAST the sequence with NCBI

Reacts with 
(species key)

Hu

Specificity 

The region of AKT1 surrounding S473 has a high degree of similarity to the corresponding regions in AKT2 and AKT3 and thus may cross react with these proteins if phosphorylated on the corresponding serine residue.

Tested applications

Cellular localization

Neuroscience >> Neurology process >> Neural Signal Transduction

Relevance 

The serine threonine protein kinase encoded by the AKT1 gene is catalytically inactive in serum starved primary and immortalized fibroblasts. AKT1 and the related AKT2 are activated by platelet derived growth factor. The activation is rapid and specific. In the developing nervous system AKT is a critical mediator of growth factor induced neuronal survival. Survival factors can suppress apoptosis in a transcription independent manner by activating the serine/threonine kinase AKT1, which then phosphorylates and inactivates components of the apoptotic machinery. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene (referenced from entrez gene).

Purification notes 

This product was prepared from monospecific antiserum by immunoaffinity chromatography using phospho peptide coupled to agarose beads followed by solid phase adsorption(s) against non-phospho peptide and non-specific peptide to remove any unwanted reactivities. Assay by immunoelectrophoresis resulted in a single precipitin arc against anti-Rabbit Serum.

Normal breast tissue. Akt is weakly phosphorylated in normal tissue in the breast. The phosphorylated Akt is clearly localised in the cytoplasm.

The phopho Ser 473 Akt antibody (ab8932) is used with no pretreatment at a dilution of 1:100 using Dako techmate streptavidin-biotin reagents.
