Protein UniProt: O15530 Protein SigNET: O15530 Antibody Type: Polyclonal
Antibody Host Species: Rabbit
Antibody Immunogen Source: Human PDK1 (PDPK1) sequence peptide Cat. No.: PE-04AKW99
Antibody Immunogen Sequence: RAN(pS)FVG(bA)C
Antibody Immunogen Description: Corresponds to amino acid residues R238 to G244; In the protein kinase catalytic domain activation T loop region between subdomains VII and VIII.
Production Method: The immunizing peptide was produced by solid phase synthesis on a multipep peptide synthesizer and purified by reverse-phase hplc chromatography. Purity was assessed by analytical hplc and the amino acid sequence confirmed by mass spectrometry analysis. This peptide was coupled to KLH prior to immunization into rabbits. New Zealand White rabbits were subcutaneously injected with KLH-coupled immunizing peptide every 4 weeks for 4 months. The sera from these animals was applied onto an agarose column to which the immunogen peptide was thio-linked. Antibody was eluted from the column with 0.1 M glycine, pH 2.5. Subsequently, the antibody solution was neutralized to pH 7.0 with saturated Tris.This antibody was also subject to negative purification over phosphotyrosine-agarose.
Antibody Modification: Unconjugated. Contact KInexus if you are interest in having the antibody biotinylated or coupled with fluorescent dyes.

Scientific Background: PDK1 (PDPK1) is a protein-serine/threonine kinase of the AGC group and PKB family. It activates, via phosphorylation, many members of the AGC family of protein kinases. It is activated by phosphorylaton at Y9, S160, S241, Y373, and Y376. MELK-mediated phosphorylation can be inhibited through a T354A mutation. PDK1 phosphorylation of MAP3K5 can be ablated through the S394A and S398A mutations. PKB has been observed to be phosphorylated more via a T513E mutation in PDK1. Its phosphotransferase activity can be reduced 3-fold with a A277V mutation. PDK1 is important in mediating migration and metastasis of breast cancer cells.
