Description
Rabbit polyclonal to AKT2 (phospho S474) -
Host species
Rabbit -
Specificity
Akt2 (phospho-Ser474) antibody detects endogenous levels of Akt2 only when phosphorylated at serine 474. The region of AKT2 surrounding S474 has a high degree of similarity to the corresponding regions in AKT1 and AKT3 and thus may cross react with these proteins if phosphorylated on the corresponding serine residue. -
Tested applications
Suitable for: WB, IHC-P, ICC/IFmore details -
Species reactivity
Reacts with: Mouse, Rat, Human -
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide within Human AKT2 aa 432-481 (C terminal) (phospho S474). The exact sequence is proprietary. The antiserum was produced against synthesized phosphopeptide derived from human Akt2 around the phosphorylation site of serine 474.

Target
-
Function
General protein kinase capable of phosphorylating several known proteins. -
Tissue specificity
Expressed in all human cell types so far analyzed. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. AGC Ser/Thr protein kinase family. RAC subfamily.
Contains 1 AGC-kinase C-terminal domain.
Contains 1 PH domain.
Contains 1 protein kinase domain. -
Post-translational
modificationsPhosphorylation on Thr-309 and Ser-474 is required for full activity.
Ubiquitinated; undergoes both 'Lys-48'- and 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitination. TRAF6-induced 'Lys-63'-linked AKT2 ubiquitination. When fully phosphorylated and translocated into the nucleus, undergoes 'Lys-48'-polyubiquitination catalyzed by TTC3, leading to its degradation by the proteasome. - Information by UniProt

Cells were fixed with formaldehyde, permeabilized with 0.1% Tween and blocked with 3% BSA for 1 hour at room temperature. Samples were incubated with primary antibody (1/20 in PBS + 3% BSA) for 2 hours. An Alexa Fluor® 555-conjugated donkey anti-rabbit IgG polyclonal (1/500) was used as the secondary antibody.
