Application notes 
(see key)

Recommended dilutions
WB: 1/1000, when using colorometric substrates such as BCIP/NBT - 1/5000, when using chemiluminescent substrates. Predicted molecular weight: 46 kDa. But note that when used against the reduced protein, ab28256 identifies bands at 55 kDa and 53 kDa, as well as activation/breakdown products. Dilution optimised using Chromogenic detection.
IHC-P: Use at an assay dependent dilution. Perform heat mediated antigen retrieval before commencing with IHC staining protocol.
Not yet tested in other applications. Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Relevance 

PKA 2 beta (regulatory subunit or PRKAR2B) is one of the regulatory subunits of cAMP-dependent Protein Kinase (PKA), which is a serine/threonine kinase that regulates a number of cellular processes including proliferation, ion transport and gene transcription. PKA is composed of conserved catalytic subunits and regulatory subunits (R1 alpha, R1 beta, R2 alpha, and R2 beta). Upon adenylate cyclase activation, AMP binds to the regulatory subunits, and releases the catalytic subunit, which becomes active upon its dissociation from the regulatory subunit.
This subunit has been shown to interact with and suppress the transcriptional activity of the cAMP responsive element binding protein 1 (CREB1) in activated T cells. Knockout studies in mice suggest that this subunit may play an important role in regulating energy balance and adiposity. The studies also suggest that this subunit may mediate the gene induction and cataleptic behavior induced by haloperidol.

Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections)-PKA 2 beta (regulatory subunit) antibody(ab28256)

Ab28256 staining human normal breast tissue. Staining is localized to cytoplasm.
Left panel: with primary antibody at 2 ug/ml. Right panel: isotype control.
Sections were stained using an automated system DAKO Autostainer Plus , at room temperature. Sections were rehydrated and antigen retrieved with the Dako 3-in-1 AR buffers EDTA pH 9.0 in a DAKO PT Link. Slides were peroxidase blocked in 3% H2O2 in methanol for 10 minutes. They were then blocked with Dako Protein block for 10 minutes (containing casein 0.25% in PBS) then incubated with primary antibody for 20 minutes and detected with Dako Envision Flex amplification kit for 30 minutes. Colorimetric detection was completed with Diaminobenzidine for 5 minutes. Slides were counterstained with Haematoxylin and coverslipped under DePeX. Please note that for manual staining we recommend to optimize the primary antibody concentration and incubation time (overnight incubation), and amplification may be required.
