Sandwich ELISA of ab314784 with the capture antibody dilution at 2 µg/mL and detector antibody dilution at 0.5 µg/mL. Interpolated concentrations of native ERK2 in human control wild type HeLa cell and MAPK1 (ERK2) knockout HeLa cell based on 500 µg/mL extract loads. The concentrations of ERK2 were measured in duplicate and interpolated from the ERK2 standard curve and corrected for sample dilution. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean ERK2 concentration was determined to be 8032.4 pg/mL in wild type HeLa extract (Human wild-type HeLa cell line ab255448) and undetectable in MAPK1 (ERK2) knockout HeLa extract (Human MAPK1 (ERK2) knockout HeLa cell line ab265052).

Product details

ab314785 is a BSA and Azide free antibody supplied in an unconjugated format and it is suitable for sandwich ELISAs to quantify ERK2. The recommended pair for sandwich ELISA is:

Capture: ab314785, ERK2 Capture Antibody (unconjugated)

Detector: ab314786, ERK2 Detector Antibody (unconjugated)

The reference range value is 0.78-50 ng/mL.

The recommended antibody orientation is based on internal optimization for ELISA based assays. Antibody orientation is assay dependent and needs to be optimized for each assay type. Please note that the range provided for this antibody is only an estimation based on the performance of the product using the recommended antibody pair. Performance of the antibody pair will depend on the specific characteristics of your assay. We guarantee the product works in sandwich ELISA, but we do not guarantee the sensitivity or dynamic range of the antibody in your assay.

Our carrier-free formats are supplied in a buffer free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol for higher conjugation efficiency. The antibodies are provided at an approximate concentration of 1 mg/ml as measured by the protein A280 method. Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with <1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

Supplementary information

ERK2 also known as Extracellular signal-Regulated Kinase 2 is a serine/threonine protein kinase in the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family with a mass of approximately 42 kDa. This kinase is expressed in many cell types and tissues including the brain liver and lungs. ERK2 plays a significant role in cellular processes such as proliferation differentiation and survival. It is often analyzed using specific assays including ERK2 ELISA and examination of cell lysate samples to determine expression levels and activity.
Biological function summary

ERK2 influences several key cellular functions. It functions as part of a signaling cascade transmitting signals from the exterior to the cell nucleus. In this cascade ERK2 is often part of a multi-protein complex that undergoes sequential phosphorylation. Through these mechanisms ERK2 regulates gene expression and is a pivotal component of the MAPK/ERK pathway ensuring the proper response to growth signals and stress stimuli.

Pathways

ERK2 is a central component of the MAPK/ERK signaling pathway and the PI3K/AKT pathway. These pathways play critical roles in cell cycle regulation and apoptosis. ERK2 activation leads to its interaction with the MEK1/2 proteins which further allows the transmission of mitogenic signals. The interplay between ERK2 and related proteins like E460 often impacts cellular growth and development as it precisely controls the phosphorylation events within the pathway.

ERK2 is connected to certain types of cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. Aberrations in ERK2 signaling pathways are often linked to tumorigenesis where altered interaction with proteins such as Raf and MEK1/2 disrupts cell cycle regulation and apoptosis. In neurodegenerative disorders dysregulated ERK2 activity has been associated with proteins contributing to Alzheimer's disease indicating its involvement in neuronal survival and stress response mechanisms.

Target data

Serine/threonine kinase which acts as an essential component of the MAP kinase signal transduction pathway. MAPK1/ERK2 and MAPK3/ERK1 are the 2 MAPKs which play an important role in the MAPK/ERK cascade. They participate also in a signaling cascade initiated by activated KIT and KITLG/SCF. Depending on the cellular context, the MAPK/ERK cascade mediates diverse biological functions such as cell growth, adhesion, survival and differentiation through the regulation of transcription, translation, cytoskeletal rearrangements. The MAPK/ERK cascade also plays a role in initiation and regulation of meiosis, mitosis, and postmitotic functions in differentiated cells by phosphorylating a number of transcription factors. About 160 substrates have already been discovered for ERKs. Many of these substrates are localized in the nucleus, and seem to participate in the regulation of transcription upon stimulation. However, other substrates are found in the cytosol as well as in other cellular organelles, and those are responsible for processes such as translation, mitosis and apoptosis. Moreover, the MAPK/ERK cascade is also involved in the regulation of the endosomal dynamics, including lysosome processing and endosome cycling through the perinuclear recycling compartment (PNRC); as well as in the fragmentation of the Golgi apparatus during mitosis. The substrates include transcription factors (such as ATF2, BCL6, ELK1, ERF, FOS, HSF4 or SPZ1), cytoskeletal elements (such as CANX, CTTN, GJA1, MAP2, MAPT, PXN, SORBS3 or STMN1), regulators of apoptosis (such as BAD, BTG2, CASP9, DAPK1, IER3, MCL1 or PPARG), regulators of translation (such as EIF4EBP1 and FXR1) and a variety of other signaling-related molecules (like ARHGEF2, DCC, FRS2 or GRB10). Protein kinases (such as RAF1, RPS6KA1/RSK1, RPS6KA3/RSK2, RPS6KA2/RSK3, RPS6KA6/RSK4, SYK, MKNK1/MNK1, MKNK2/MNK2, RPS6KA5/MSK1, RPS6KA4/MSK2, MAPKAPK3 or MAPKAPK5) and phosphatases (such as DUSP1, DUSP4, DUSP6 or DUSP16) are other substrates which enable the propagation the MAPK/ERK signal to additional cytosolic and nuclear targets, thereby extending the specificity of the cascade. Mediates phosphorylation of TPR in response to EGF stimulation. May play a role in the spindle assembly checkpoint. Phosphorylates PML and promotes its interaction with PIN1, leading to PML degradation. Phosphorylates CDK2AP2 (By similarity).. Acts as a transcriptional repressor. Binds to a [GC]AAA[GC] consensus sequence. Repress the expression of interferon gamma-induced genes. Seems to bind to the promoter of CCL5, DMP1, IFIH1, IFITM1, IRF7, IRF9, LAMP3, OAS1, OAS2, OAS3 and STAT1. Transcriptional activity is independent of kinase activity.
