Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody detects leucine-rich repeat serine/threonine-protein kinase 2 (gene LRRK2) in human, mouse and rat samples and is validated for Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 286.1 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 286 kDa.
LRRK2 is a large multidomain protein that combines a GTPase domain with a serine/threonine kinase domain. It phosphorylates a subset of Rab GTPases such as RAB8A and RAB10, shaping vesicle trafficking, lysosome function, autophagy and ciliogenesis; activating mutations in LRRK2 are a common genetic cause of Parkinson's disease, making it a major target in neurodegeneration research.

Validated Applications
| Western blot | 0.1–0.5 µg/mL (Human, Mouse, Rat) |
|---|
Samples with a confirmed band (WB): rat brain tissue, mouse brain tissue, rat liver tissue, U87 cells, NEURO cells, A549 cells, SMMC cells.
Recommended loading (WB): 20–40 µg of total protein per lane.
Immunogen
Recombinant human LRRK2 fragment (Glu10–Leu350), expressed in E. coli. Sequence identity with the mouse ortholog: 82%.
Reactivity Notes
The supplier lists reactivity with human, mouse and rat. UniProt places leucine-rich repeat serine/threonine-protein kinase 2 in the cytoplasmic vesicle, perikaryon, Golgi apparatus membrane and cell projection. Tissue expression noted by UniProt (human): Expressed in pyramidal neurons in all cortical laminae of the visual cortex, in neurons of the substantia nigra pars compacta and caudate putamen (at protein level). The samples tested by the supplier (listed above) are a practical starting point for positive controls.
