Immunohistochemistry (IHC)

(Immunohistochemical analysis of EEF2K staining in human lung cancer formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue section. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH 6.0). The section was then incubated with the antibody at room temperature and detected using an HRP conjugated compact polymer system. DAB was used as the chromogen. The section was then counterstained with haematoxylin and mounted with DPX.)

NCBI Description

This gene encodes a highly conserved protein kinase in the calmodulin-mediated signaling pathway that links activation of cell surface receptors to cell division. This kinase is involved in the regulation of protein synthesis. It phosphorylates eukaryotic elongation factor 2 (EEF2) and thus inhibits the EEF2 function. The activity of this kinase is increased in many cancers and may be a valid target for anti-cancer treatment. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uniprot Description

EEF2K: an atypical protein kinase of the Alpha family. Dependent on Ca2 ions and calmodulin. May play a key role linking cellular energy status and the inhibition of protein synthesis, a major consumer of metabolic energy. Phosphorylates and inactivates eEF2, resulting in the inhibition of peptide-chain elongation eEF2K is phosphorylated and activated by AMPK in response to elevated AMP levels, which increase during cellular stress and starvation. Regulated in response to a range of stimuli including TNF-alpha. Overexpressed in breast cancer cell lines and tumors. Activated in rat glioblastoma, and growth was inhibited by the drug Rottlerin. Activity induced in ischemic heart muscle

Protein type: Translation; Kinase, protein; Protein kinase, atypical; EC 2.7.11.20; Protein kinase, Ser/Thr (non-receptor); ATYPICAL group; Alpha family; eEF2K subfamily

Product Notes

The EEF2K eef2k (Catalog #AAA8226809) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Anti-EEF2K Antibody reacts with Human, Rat, Monkey and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's EEF2K can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), Immunohistochemistry (IHC). WB (1/500 - 1/1000), IHC (1/100 - 1/200). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the EEF2K eef2k for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "EEF2K, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
