Rabbit anti-Mouse IL2 Inducible T-Cell Kinase (ITK) Polyclonal Antibody | anti-ITK antibody
FITC-Linked Polyclonal Antibody to IL2 Inducible T-Cell Kinase (ITK)
Immunohistochemistry: 5-20 ug/mL;1:15-60
Immunocytochemistry: 5-20 ug/mL;1:15-60
Optimal working dilutions must be determined by end user.
Store at 4°C for frequent use.
Aliquot and store at -20°C for 12 months.
Stability Test: The thermal stability is described by the loss rate. The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test, that is, incubate the protein at 37°C for 48h, and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed. The loss rate is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.
Note: As fluorescence can photobleach when exposed to light, so the antibody must be protected from light. *
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes an intracellular tyrosine kinase expressed in T-cells. The protein contains both SH2 and SH3 domains which are often found in intracellular kinases. It is thought to play a role in T-cell proliferation and differentiation. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
ITK: an intracellular tyrosine kinase of the Tec family expressed in T-cells. Plays an essential role in regulation of the adaptive immune response. Contains both SH2 and SH3 domains and plays a role in T-cell proliferation and differentiation. Regulates the development, function and differentiation of conventional T-cells and nonconventional NKT-cells. Is recruited to the cell membrane following activation of the T-cell receptor (TCR). It is phosphorylated by LCK, followed by autophosphorylation leading to its full activation. Phosphorylates PLCG1. Itk-deficient murine T cells display defects in TCR/CD3-induced actin polymerization.
