Western blot - Anti-AK2 antibody [EPR11387(B)] - BSA and Azide free (AB249309)

This data was developed using the same antibody clone in a different buffer formulation (ab157206).

Lanes 1-4 : Merged signal (red and green). Green - ab157206 observed at 30 kDa. Red - loading control ab8245 observed at 36 kDa.

ab157206 Anti-AK2 antibody [EPR11387(B)] was shown to specifically react with AK2 in wild-type HEK293T cells. Loss of signal was observed when knockout cell line ab266539 (knockout cell lysate ab257825) was used. Wild-type and AK2 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab157206 and Anti-GAPDH antibody [6C5] - Loading Control (ab8245) were incubated at room temperature for 2.5 hours at 1 in 1000 dilution and 1 in 20000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preadsorbed (ab216773) and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preadsorbed (ab216776) secondary antibodies at 1 in 20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.

Supplementary information

The adenylate kinase 2 also known as AK2 is an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of adenine nucleotides within the cell. It facilitates the reversible conversion of ADP into ATP and AMP playing a critical role in cellular energy homeostasis. AK2 weighing approximately 26 kDa is primarily found in the mitochondrial intermembrane space of various tissues including liver muscle and brain. Its expression allows for efficient energy transfer essential for normal mitochondrial function and cellular metabolism.
Biological function summary

AK2 functions in energy transfer and regulation in the cell serving as an important component in maintaining cellular ATP levels. AK2 is an integral part of the mitochondrial adenylate kinase system which manages energy flux in cells. By balancing the concentrations of ATP ADP and AMP AK2 directly influences cellular energy state and metabolic activity. The enzyme also supports nucleotide homeostasis therefore facilitating processes such as signal transduction and nucleic acid synthesis.

Pathways

AK2 is involved in the adenylate kinase pathway important for energy metabolism. It coordinates with other enzymes like AK1 and AK3 ensuring efficient energy distribution in the cell. AK2 also interfaces with the apoptosis signaling pathways where it plays a part in regulating programmed cell death. The interaction of AK2 within these pathways emphasizes its essential role in maintaining cellular energy balance and undergoing apoptosis when necessary.

AK2 mutations link to rare conditions like reticular dysgenesis a severe form of combined immunodeficiency. The disorder arises when AK2 fails to initiate proper energy transfer necessary for white blood cell development. AK2 is also related to mitochondrial disorders where energy production gets critically impaired manifesting in muscle weakness and neurodegenerative symptoms. The enzyme's connection to proteins involved in energy pathways suggests its potential contribution to the progression of such diseases.
